FAQ
What makes Polaris different from a standard snow machine?
Polaris is worn as a backpack, so the operator can move through a scene, parade route, photo area, or event space while controlling the snow effect by hand.
Is Polaris battery powered?
Yes. Polaris uses a 36V battery system with a 7.5Ah battery pack.
How much fluid does it hold?
The backpack tank holds 4 gallons of snow fluid.
What type of events is it built for?
Polaris is built for holiday events, parades, winter displays, photo ops, event productions, venues, and mobile entertainment setups.
Tips
- Use the wide-mouth tank opening to fill slowly and avoid spills.
- Test the output before guests arrive so the operator knows the throw and plume behavior.
- For walk-through effects, keep the nozzle moving for a broader snow field.
- Match the snow fluid to the setting: quick-dissipating fluid for lower-residue indoor-style moments, longer-lasting fluid for outdoor winter displays.
- Charge the battery before every event and keep the charger packed with the unit.
