Cost
A polypropylene mesh has a lifetime of about ten years. In Nepal, operation and maintenance is difficult due to the unavailability of spare parts (mainly polypropylene mesh). Hence keeping stock of mesh and other spare parts is highly recommended. In high winds, nets would normally be taken down as part of normal operation and maintenance. Otherwise where fog collectors are remotely located, different designs are being researched which may provide increased robustness.
