The temperature is rising rapidly and we are fast approaching the heat wave. A swamp cooler is another option if you’re looking for a way to lower the temperature. You will not only be able to beat the heat with them, but you might also benefit from their other benefits.
Let’s look more deeply at these multipurpose cooling devices that are also environmentally friendly.
The Process Behind Evaporative Swamp Coolers
Evaporative coolers use water and wind to cool the air. The fan draws in the dry, hot air and pushes it through stiff media pads. A garden hose or a reservoir can be used to supply the water required to moisten the media pad. The air is revitalized and cooled before being distributed to the surrounding air. This results in a temperature decrease of up 20-25 degrees.
Swamp Coolers Keep Bugs Away
Higher temperatures lead to increased activity by insects in summer. The unwelcome side effect of outdoor living is the outdoor-rated evaporative cooling cooler’s powerful fan that can blow away insects from outside tables, deck chairs, and poolside lounging areas at speeds up to 11,000 cubic feet per hour (CFM).
You Can Redirect Smoke By Using An Evaporative Cooler
Although barbecues and cookouts are summertime traditions, the smoke produced by grills can cause problems, particularly in windy conditions. The swamp cooler may be used to direct smoke away from friends and family. The powerful airflow of these multipurpose machines may be used to blow away smoke from fire pits and campfires, even in autumn. These machines can also be used as fans.
Evaporative Coolers Can Revitalize Dry, Stale Air
Evaporative coolers are great for cooling down the temperature of a room. However, they also add moisture to the air. This is an important advantage if you live in very dry or hot regions. Because water is used, the cool air also contains moisture. It gives the feeling of being close to a waterfall, despite it being cold. Evaporative coolers should not be confused for misting fans. They add moisture before the cooler exits. Evaporative coolers do not spray mist so you don’t have to worry about water droplets covering your furnishings or you. This dampness is created by the cooler moving through the surrounding air, so it can capture pollen. This could happen inside or out.
Pets Should Be Kept Hydrated
An evaporative cooler can be a real lifesaver when you’re away from your pet for extended periods and need to keep them warm in the heat. It can provide continuous cooling for pets indoors and outdoors. If the weather is hot and dry, keep it in a barn/stable to keep your larger animals cool. For kennels, vet clinics, or any other facility where our four-legged friends live, swamp coolers are highly recommended.
Evaporative Coolers Can Also Serve As Highly Effective Fans
You can operate most heavy-duty, large-CFM evaporative cool without needing water by switching to fan-only mode. They can then be converted into high-velocity fans, which can be used to circulate air in commercial buildings that don’t have air conditioning. Many of them have movable louvers that allow airflow to be distributed more widely. This reduces the number and discomfort of bugs while keeping customers and employees happy.
