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.
yes it does as the heat pump is more effeciant.
A Reverse cycle Air conditioner is MUCH more efficient than resistance heating. It is called a heat pump, and requires that the Evaporator and Condenser coils of a Closed Refrigerant System be reversed.
There were many purposes behind the invention of the revolving door. These types of doors solved the problem of heavier doors that were needed on larger buildings. They also provided a more comfortable indoor environment as they helped to save the heat in the winter and cooler temperatures in the summer from escaping the building.

A large swamp cooler can effectively cool a large space by using water evaporation, which is energy-efficient and cost-effective compared to traditional air conditioning systems. It also adds moisture to the air, making it more comfortable and beneficial for people with respiratory issues. Additionally, swamp coolers are environmentally friendly as they do not use harmful refrigerants.
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.
To make your swamp cooler colder, you can add more water to the reservoir, ensure proper ventilation, and clean or replace the cooling pads regularly. Additionally, you can place ice or frozen water bottles in front of the cooler to enhance its cooling effect.
It is a function of the "dew point" of the air at any given moment. If relative humidity is high, the dew point will also be high and the swamp cooler air will be relatively warm. If relative humidity is low, the dew point will also be low and the swamp cooler air will be relatively cold. A swamp cooler in Phx AZ will put out air about 30 degrees less than the outside air, and works more efficiently when the humidity outside is very low.
A box that sits on your roof that has 4 water pads that get soaked with water and a belt driven blower within the box draws outside air in through the wet pads creating a humid environment inside the house. Swamp coolers are more popular in desert dry areas typically in older homes.
No, but they do make you more comfortable.
Central air conditioners tend to be more expensive than swamp coolers. This is usually because people prefer to pay more for the comfort of central air.
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.

Using hot water in a swamp cooler does not cool the air better; in fact, it can reduce its cooling efficiency. Swamp coolers work by evaporating water to cool the air, and warm water may not evaporate as effectively as cooler water. Ideally, using cool water enhances the evaporation process, leading to more effective cooling. For optimal performance, it's best to use cold or room temperature water.
You can install an evaporative cooler. They are only effective in very dry areas. If the humidity regularly gets high, they are not effective in cooling. For more information you can visit the swamp coolers page at www.hvac-for-beginners.com
