Evaporative Cooler Comparisons
Evaporative coolers (or "swamp" coolers) can effectively lower the ambient temperature in a room or area by up to 20 degrees and for one-third less than traditional air conditioning systems. However, a unit's efficiency will greatly depend on the temperature and humidity of the air coming into the cooler itself.
