I have a swamp cooler in Reno NV, and on 95+ days if I leave it on all day on max the house will be 60-70 degrees. It works so well I rarely run it on max settings as it just gets too cold. Of course there are some draw backs like swelling due to the humidity, and if there is smoke in the air I can't run it.
- ulkram 7y agocurious why can't you run it if there's smoke?
- bhhaskin 7y agoIt pulls in air from outside. So if their is smoke in the air from a wild fire then it will just fill your whole house with smoke. So you can run it, just highly ill advised.
- adrianmonk 7y agoWhat about dust storms? Seems like some areas in the American Southwest (AZ, NM, West Texas) are dry enough for swamp coolers, but they also can have these insane dust storms that are so intense you can't see to drive on the highway.
