The Unit being in Sun or Shade will have NO effect on how well a Swamp Cooler performs.

Operation of Swamp / Evaporative Cooler effectiveness is determined by Ambient temperature / dew point and relative humidity. They are optimum in Dry / Hot / Low Humid climates such as found in the South West Desert areas of the U.S. The higher the Humidity / Dew Point, the LESS EFFECTIVE a Swamp / Evaporator Cooler will be. They cool by adding moisture to the Air. So the higher the Humidity is, the more the moisture content is in the air already, thus being less effective. Air can only support so much moisture before it starts to condensate. ( You will then start to feel Sticky and less comfortable )

Again, the Unit being in the Sun, verses being in the Shade, WILL NOT change the

Coolers effectiveness in operation.

How does a swamp cooler work to cool down a room?

A swamp cooler, also known as an evaporative cooler, works by drawing in warm air from outside, passing it through water-soaked pads, and then blowing out cooler, more humid air into the room. The evaporation process cools the air as it absorbs heat, making the room feel cooler.


How does an AC swamp cooler work to cool a room efficiently?

An AC swamp cooler works by using water evaporation to cool the air. The cooler pulls in warm air, passes it through water-soaked pads, and then blows out cooler air. This process is efficient because evaporation helps lower the temperature without using a lot of energy.


What is more comfortable air-conditioning or swamp cooler?

Swamp coolers only work well in areas with low humidities, such as the desert. They are only capable of lowering the temperature by about 20 degrees if the humidity is quite low. An air conditioner would be much cooler.


How does a swamp cooler work?

I have one and i know you just need to install it in and then turn the knob if your does not operate this way get an instuction mannule


How does a breeze air swamp cooler work to provide cool air in a hot environment?

A breeze air swamp cooler works by pulling warm air through water-soaked pads, which cools the air through evaporation. The cooler air is then circulated into the room, providing a refreshing and cool environment in hot weather.


Can you use clr in your swampcooler?

yes..but you would have to completely clean the entire unit after you are done and flush it out completely then replace the swamp cooler pads with new ones as CLR is very bad for your health. Using scrub brush is better but harder work.


Does this work in a tent or is it better for a camper?

This air cooler would be better suited in a camper versus a tent for efficincey.


Does Catalase function better at a certain temperature?

Yes, it functions better at cooler temperatures. Hot temperatures cause it to fail to work.


Why does the desert cooler not work in the rainy season?

The desert (swamp) cooler depends upon evaporation of water for cooling. During the rainy season the air is already pretty much saturated with water vapor so little water evaporates from the cooler and they become inefficient. They are most efficient when the relative humidity is below 20%.


What are the differences between an air conditioner and a swamp cooler, and which one would be more suitable for cooling a specific area?

An air conditioner uses refrigerant to cool and dehumidify air, while a swamp cooler uses water to cool air through evaporation. Air conditioners are more effective in hot and humid climates, while swamp coolers work best in hot and dry climates. The choice between the two depends on the climate and humidity levels of the specific area you want to cool.


Your swamp cooler switch works on high only does not work on low speed?

there is a resistor on the fan motor that has gone bad, some models have a resistor unit mounted near the fan in case this happens.


How does a swamp cooler cool air?

Swamp coolers, is a term that refers to a cooling tower composed of a device that moves air through a medium where water passes over. These swamp coolers work well to add moisture to normally dry air. This type of cooling system are usually found in very dry climates and cost very little to operate compared to air conditioners.
