From the Blue Community / Blue City of Paris and its public water service Eau de Paris:
Heatwave: Misting fountains throughout Paris to prevent overheating.
When the heat sets in, Eau de Paris’s misting fountains offer a welcome respite from the heat. In addition to dispensing drinking water, they release a fine mist. Ideal for coping with the high temperatures!
What are the benefits of misting?
During periods of intense heat, the body needs water to regulate its temperature. Drinking regularly is essential to compensate for the losses due to perspiration. Wetting your skin is also very effective. When water evaporates upon contact with the air, it carries away some of the body’s heat and provides an immediate feeling of coolness. Splashing water on your arms, face, neck, or legs is therefore a simple and recommended way to reduce the risk of heatstroke.
