    When you need more than just a household fan, maintain a comfortable atmosphere in your space using an evaporative cooler from Ace Hardware. We offer a selection of evaporative air conditioners for spaces of all sizes. Read on to learn about the variety of options and sizes we carry so you can find the swamp cooler for your needs.

    What Is a Swamp Cooler?

    Also known as an evaporative cooler, a swamp cooler provides a cost-effective, eco-friendly way to maintain a pleasant environment when temperatures rise. A portable evaporative cooler offers an alternative to conventional air conditioning and lowers indoor temperatures by combining the benefits of the natural cooling properties of moisture with an energy-efficient air-moving system. An evaporative cooler uses only a fan, water, and a pump to cool air.

    Benefits of Evaporative Coolers

    While a swamp cooler effectively cools off a space, it also helps remove dust and allergens from the air. Around the same size as an air conditioner, an evaporative cooler uses less electricity consumption than a conventional AC system, powered by a standard 120-volt wall outlet.

    Types of Swamp Coolers

    Swamp coolers can be used as primary air conditioning sources or in conjunction with existing air conditioning units. Most evaporative coolers designed for whole-house cooling are mounted directly to the roof and blow air downward, while smaller models are mounted through walls or windows and blow air in through the sides of the units. Consider the size of space where you plan to use the swamp cooler when selecting an efficient model for your needs.

    Portable Swamp Coolers

    Portable swamp cooler models are designed for home use and feature compact construction and easy portability. Aside from their user-friendly features, portable evaporative coolers with high cubic feet per minute (CFM) capacities effectively cool large spaces with ease. Simply plug the unit into a wall outlet to quickly cool a room.

    Down-Draft and Side-Draft Swamp Coolers

    A whole-house cooling solution, down-draft and side-draft evaporative coolers offer a complete alternative to central air. Down-draft evaporative coolers are typically installed on roofs and discharge cool air down into the rest of the home. Side-draft swamp coolers are often installed on the sides of buildings or mounted on roofs. They direct cool airflow through attic spaces or roof openings to discharge cool air down into the space.

    Wall and Window Swamp Coolers

    These evaporative air conditioners are compact and made to cool single rooms or garages. A window swamp cooler can be permanently installed and hooked up to your home's water supply. They provide increased comfort without damaging your wallet.

    Is a Swamp Cooler Effective for Your Climate?

    Swamp coolers are most effective in hot, dry climates with low humidity. If you live in a warm, humid area that's heavily saturated with moisture, browse our selection of window AC units, portable air conditioners, and air conditioner parts and accessories. Unlike evaporative coolers that lower temperatures by adding humidity to spaces, classic air conditioner models cool the environment by removing excess levels of humidity.
