Hessaire Evaporative Cooler Review - 3 Years Later!

Hessaire Evaporative Cooler B00MYWQL96 OK, let's get the basics out of the way. Evaporative (swamp) coolers work best when you live in a dry climate. If you live in an area with high humidity, they don't make the air cooler, they just make it wetter. Got it? I'm baffled by the bad reviews from people living in 80-100% humidity complaining about a swamp cooler not cooling. If you live in Mississippi, don't buy this. It won't work. You need refrigerated air. But for those of us in the desert SW, this unit is a Godsend. It cools VERY well. It holds 10 gallons of water, or you can hook it directly to a hose (recommended). Turn the pump on first, let it soak the pads for about 1 minute, and turn the fan on. The pump moves a lot of water, and soaks the pads quickly. The pad material is very efficient. So efficient, in fact, that I estimate the unit uses about a gallon of water every 15 minutes. See why hooking it to the hose is a good idea? But it also has a gauge where you can tell how much water is in the unit at a glance. If you plan on using it indoors, position it where it can draw in hot outdoor air and exhaust through another opening, like a window or door. I use it in my garage and storage barn, and just place it in front of the access door. Draws air in from the bottom, exhausts it out the top. Easy peasy. Cools the area without getting too muggy. It has 3 fan speeds, and moves a LOT of air. The low speed is usually sufficient. And it works fantastic outdoors. Yard work, wrenching on the car, enjoying the patio, you name it....this unit will keep you comfortable. Build quality seems good. I like that it's plastic and won't rust. If I have any complaint, the plastic seems a bit cheap, and the fit and finish is mediocre. But these are very minor flaws on an otherwise great product. It has locking casters and rolls easily....and when you're ready to move it, just pull the drain plug and let the water out...and then the unit is light weight. All in all, I couldn't be happier with it. My only regret is not buying it ages ago. If you're torn between which portable swamp cooler to buy, go with this one. Excellent bang for the buck!
