With increasing concerns being expressed about becoming more energy efficient, coupled with the constant talk about climate change, it is becoming increasingly important to be able to have a cooling system for the home or workplace that is both effective in use, and cost effective in terms of the amount of energy that is used.  Instead of looking towards large fixed air conditioning systems that are bulky and very costly in use, many people are moving towards a system based on a portable swamp cooler, as these are more efficient and in many cases, just as effective in use as a full AC.
A portable swamp cooler is one of the most elegant systems that you will see.  Completely simple, yet undeniably effective, there are a range of options available that mean you will be able to get relief from rising temperatures and be more comfortable, and have the flexibility that portability brings, meaning that you can move the system around to wherever it is needed, and provided there is a power supply available, you will be able to get the cooling effect you are looking for.
A portable swamp cooler works using a very straight forward principal.  Water is drawn up from a supply into a large pad.  Then, warm air from the environment is blown over and through the soaked pad.  This heat causes liquid to evaporate from the absorbent pad, and this creates the cooling effect.  The whole system is analogous to how much cooler you feel on a hot day when a breeze hits you.
Because portable swamp coolers work without the need for expensive refrigerants such as Freon, and are so straightforward, they run much more efficiently than AC systems, and are also less costly at purchase, making them an excellent choice in many circumstances.
In order to get the best results from a portable swamp cooler, they should be used in particular kinds of environment.  They are ideally suited to situations where the temperature is hot, and the humidity levels are low, as these enable the system to work most effectively.  When the humidity levels are higher, the evaporative process is less efficient, and the cooling effect is not so pronounced, because the primary noticeable aspect of the cooling in such circumstances is the ventilation provided by the fan.  When the air is already laden with moisture, the water is no longer able to evaporate so easily, so does not help to cool the air.
Red Hill Supply offer an extensive range of portable swamp coolers that are designed for a number of different applications, from domestic use through to being deployed in commercial properties, there are different sized models available that are designed for different levels of functionality, and all offer exceptional value for money.
The smallest portable swamp coolers such as the 10 inch personal evaporative cooler from leading manufacturer Adobe Air are able to provide effective cooling over areas of up to 700sq ft, which makes them ideal for use in a small office or at home.  The two speed motor will offer a decent level of control at making the temperature in a room more comfortable, while the 5 gallon capacity means that you will not need to keep filling the tank every hour as you would with some lower quality products.  For slightly larger environments, Adobe Air also offers two similar but slightly larger models in the 12” and 1/2Hp ranges.  These are able to provide effective cooling for areas up to 1
