Frequently Asked Questions About Evaporative Cooling Air Conditioning

How Does Evaporative Cooling Work?

Evaporative Cooling uses the natural cooling properties of water to lower the temperature of a room. A ducted cooling unit is installed on the roof and connected to a series of outlets placed throughout the home. The unit draws in fresh air from outside your house.

As the air passes through the filter pads (inside the roof unit), the air is cooled down and directed into every room in your house. The hotter the air, the better the cooling effect will be.

The entire volume of air within the house is refreshed every few minutes when using an Evaporative Cooler.
