Evaporative Coolers

Evaporative coolers are the ideal earth-friendly, cost effective machines for staying cool and combating heat stress in dry climates like the Southwestern United States. Unlike traditional ACs that use compressors and refrigerants to cool, swamp coolers are appliances that provide relief through the natural process of evaporation. Water is used to saturate dense cooling media, and a powerful fan propels this moist air out into your space. The effect is similar to standing near a waterfall or stepping out of the pool on a hot day. The combination of water-soaked cooling media and a powerful fan can reduce temperatures up to 30 degrees Fahrenheit.

Evaporative coolers are size by the amount of airflow they can produce. This is measured in cubic feet per meter, or CFM. They come in a variety of sizes to meet residential and commercial or industrial needs.

• Residential evaporative coolers can be used both inside and outside to cool decks, patios, workshops, and garages. When used inside, it is important to always have a fresh air source such as an open window or a screened door. There are also window evaporative coolers, which are perfect for providing economic and earth-friendly cooling for whole homes and large rooms, especially in ultra-dry climates.
• Commercial & Industrial models can be used in warehouses, on loading docks, and repair shops, as well as outdoor dining spaces, commercial kitchens, and outdoor event venues. These machines have powerful motors which produce high airflow, as much as 11,000 CFM.
