Evaporative Cooling
Evaporative cooling uses the principle of evaporation to lower the air temperature. Hot, dry air is passed through wet- ted filters and is converted to refreshingly cooled air. Essick Coolers make the best use of the evaporative process by controlling the flow of water, spreading the water evenly over the filters, and keeping a steady stream of cooled air entering your home. It is exhausted out open windows or doors, carrying heat, smoke and odors along with it. Essick evaporative coolers are up to 80% less costly to operate than refrigerated air conditioners.
