This evaporative unit is designed for homeowners looking for a low-wattage alternative to standard air conditioners in dry climates. The 2.5-gallon reservoir provides a steady source for the internal pump, which saturates a honeycomb cellulose filter to add moisture to the air. The chassis is made of ABS polymer, providing a lightweight structure that is easy to move between rooms.
Because this unit uses an evaporative process, it is most effective in garages or rooms with low ambient humidity. Functional features include:
- A remote control and timer for convenient management of the 3-speed fan.
- 360-degree casters for movement on flat, hard floor surfaces.
- A windowless design that eliminates the need for bulky exhaust hoses.
Maintenance is a key part of using this cooler; the reservoir should be drained and the filter descaled regularly to ensure optimal performance. Specifications indicate that the unit draws significantly less power than a traditional AC, making it suitable for use in areas where electrical capacity may be limited. It acts primarily as a high-powered fan with a humidifying component to provide a cooling sensation near the unit.
If you need a personal cooling device that is even more portable for a desk or car, the Fosvill 1200ml mini fan offers a compact alternative for small spaces.
