AKA a swamp cooler, they work through evaporative cooling, evaporating extra water into the air to lower the temperature. If you like cool but extremely humid air then go for it, otherwise there's a reason we pay $5k+ for a central AC unit, as it cools the air and removes humidity.

How Swamp Coolers Work

If your air conditioner is causing your energy bills to rise, you might want to consider an alternative — a swamp cooler. That's if you live in a dry environment like the southwestern U.S. So, how do swamp coolers help you beat the heat?

We used to have what they called cab coolers back in the day. They would run air through cooler water and blow it in you in a tractor or combine. Made for a great summer cold or flu

They had a couple of the commercial units going in KMS tools the other day, all I could think was they would be a great way to distribute mold spores throughout the building.

It has been a chore but I did accomplish a lot during the last week. Kind of getting used to the heat.

Canada's hot spot is actually getting hotter. Lytton, BC evacuated tonight for impending threat from forest fire.

What was the temperature?

400 km north at Fort Smith, NWT, it was 39.9C setting a new record for the NWT.

My buddy has been hauling fuel for the helis and wasn’t allowed back in last night. Sounds like there is some deaths up that way and Lytton is gone completely. He had a fuel trailer in there that he figure burnt up. Fire was moving at over 20km/h

That doesn’t sound good. I hope your wrong.

Last thing we all need is thunderstorms.

This is the fire near Kamloops. Sounds like it’s growing real fast. scary times in the forest. Hopefully people are being careful.

I’m not part of a ‘group of experienced air cooler engineers’ (lol), but it’s just a humidifier with a fan on it. Not going to do sh*t unless you maybe stuff it down your pants.

You were correct unfortunately, the news reported that 90% of lytton is gone.

Unfortunately I would expect more forest fires in the coming weeks, lots of trailers and ATV/UTV's headed out on the road the last couple days, just a matter of time until a small careless act sparks a fire.
