Actually I had a condenser years ago which sprayed water on the coils.

Nothing but trouble and rust! (Water lines get things growing in them and
clog, needs frequent maintenance, etc.) It would stop working about 3 times
a year due to these problems. Had to clean it out.

Probably get much of the benefit w/ far fewer of the problem if simply
misted in the air ahead of the intake...
