By Alex D White


There are several benefits of using the Evaporative air cooler and there are a lot of varieties of the evaporative coolers that can help you with your needs. Evaporative coolers are also referred to as swamp coolers and they act as the best units to serve your cooling needs in residence, office or work place. Based on the needs, you can choose from large portable air coolers to small coolers, fixed coolers and so on, available in varying designs, which offer reliable and effective cooling to satisfy your needs.

The portable air coolers are known to have a throw of at least 10 feet. There are countries that look to have coolers that are large and have a throw of around 30 feet. However, such coolers have a major disadvantage, as they create a lot of noise, which is produced by the exhaust fans installed in them that act as blowers for the machine to work for air movement.

Similar to the swamp coolers even the portable air coolers consists of the same equipment, it contains a container that holds different things including, the water pump, container for water and the controllers in the air cooler. You can also find castors that help you take the cooler from one place to another. The air cooler is portable; it is very lightweight so it can be shifted with ease. There is a limit to the water containing capacity of personal evaporative air coolers. You can choose to have a cooler of water capacity of 6-8 litres depending on the humidity of the environment.

You may often come against air coolers that have controllers for maintaining the water level in the cooler tank. The fact about the evaporative cooler is they are portable, thus they cannot be connected with a permanent water supply for water level maintenance.

People use the evaporative air coolers in areas that are humid; however, they are known to be very effective in dry climates too. This is simply possible because, the water is found to evaporate quickly in dry areas as compared to the humid climates, which makes it more effective in areas where humidity is low.

Similar to the smaller units of evaporative coolers, even the commercial coolers works effectively at a low cost when compared to large air conditioners. Along with this the evaporative coolers cover more space, which is at least 4000 square feet.

Even greenhouses are also known to make use of the evaporative air coolers. As the evaporative air coolers, make use of water content in the air to cool the air, it becomes useful for the plants not only to get the needed water but also have a cool environment. Where the air conditioner installed in room it needs to be sealed to work effective, but with evaporative air cooler, you need to have an open window to allow it to perform effective.

Even though it provides you with very useful advantages there are certain disadvantages that are still a concern for several people. There is no temperature controlling options available in the air cooler. Very often water containment becomes a major concern, as water scarcity is a problem in many areas and it creates difficulty in the operation of the air cooler. When used for a long time and no maintenance are done, the air coolers start giving a foul smell, which can be harmful for the health of an individual.
