The black tube connects your sink faucet to the bottom right-hand corner of the cooler. Pull the flap out and begin filling.

    Answer This Question

    Yes Ralph, this is great for indoor use but don't forget evaporative coolers do need some cross ventilation indoors.

      I have both units.
      I also have the bigger one. Both are great at my work. Cools well, runs for hours and seems well made.

        perfect little cooler
        I’d rate this cooler a 9.5 out of 10. It moves a lot of air, uses very little electricity, and should work well info my garage and workshop. Love the multiple filling options.

          Cool Gadget
          I've been doing a decent amount of work in my garage over the past couple of months. As we've transitioned from the winter months into the spring months and now going into the summer months I wanted something to keep the work area a bit cooler for me during the dog days of summer as they approach. That's where this 2700 CFM 3 speed portable evaporative cooler comes into play. My garage space is just over 500 ft so I'm certain that the capabilities of this evaporative cooler will do more than enough to keep the area cool. Perhaps I won't have to close the door in order to keep the fresh air circulating inside of the garage. The evaporative cooler came in a decent sized box the colorway is pretty remarkable in the Army green. It doesn't take up much space especially given the capability that it has to cool such a large area.

          Works fine if you don't live in a hot and humid environment
          I used this product several times in different areas before writing this review. First time I used it inside my house, but in a room that generally feels hotter during the day due to windows and direct sun. It's may, I live in Florida and temps are already mid 90s with high humidity. It cooled the room fine, although the fan is loud. Then I used it twice in my garage as we were cleaning it out. The garage, as you can imagine, is the hottest space around the house, and while it did blow air, the temperature difference was minimal. The unit does allow ice water to be placed inside, however if you're already in a hot area, that cold water will be warm fairly quickly. The unit does come with a hose for filling and a drain for when you are finished. Overall, if you're using it in an area that isnt overly hot, I think this will be fine, however in Florida it missed the mark unfortunately.

          Hi Amy, yes, they work best in hot /dry climates but do offer relief in humid areas.

          Lightweight and easy to use.
          Very easy to assemble as you just attach the wheels and it is ready. It is very lightweight and easy to move around if needed. I am using it in my green house to keep it a little bit cooler and it works great. I just fill it with water and some ice when needed. It has easy to use controls that you can use to control the fan and temperature to where you need. A good value to keep cool where you need.

            Great way to keep cool in the summer time!
            We have been using this in our shop building and what a world of difference. We have it hooked up to a hydrant so it autofills and the summer heat has nothing on it. On the inside it has a float to keep it from overflowing. The fan direction has manual up and down but auto side to side if desired. Even without water makes the building noticeably cooler.

            Works great.
            We've used this about 4 to 5 times so far and it works great. Assembly is a snap. The wheels just pop in and fill it with ice water and plug it in. It is very quiet and can barely hear it running. The fan pushes a decent amount of air. I use it in my shop on those hot dry days but we also use it at our daughters softball games. We set it at the end of the dugout and run an extension cord to our small generator. The girls love it. Highly recommended.

            Strong swamp cooler
            This swamp cooler is very light. It is made of a plasticy fiberglasses material. Very easy to use. You just add water and turn it on. You have all different setting and the fins even can be set to move side to side. You can put the lower horizontal fins one direction and the top horizontal a different direction. You can set up a hose to continuously run since the tank has a float to stop water from filling back up until the water evaporates more. The only thing that did make sense that is no where in the instructions is a random hose. Other then that what seems like extra part. It work VERY well and blows cool. Cools the area down well.

            Work horse!
            This swamp cooler is an absolute work horse. It was quick to unbox and set up- only required plopping in the wheels (no screws required for that) and attaching the drain hose. It has several settings which you can select if you just want fan, cooling or a mix. There is a separate knob for low, medium, and high. You need to have a source of fresh air. We are using this to cool our lounge shed, which we used as a bar for a friend gatherings. You just add ice, water or both to the vat. Drain it out the bottom when you’re done for the day. It is the perfect solution.
