This video is very helpful 👍.We live in California and are buying one of these this weekend. Tired of paying 2 to $300 a month to run our AC.

lower speed will create a cooler air flow! some folks don't realize these water cooled units are made for low humidity areas.. in "nevada" they are the best...

I never thought I were here Deford Bailey anywhere else.

I wonder how long that plastic unit is going to hold up in the blazing sun.

The metal painted swamp coolers unfortunately turn into a bucket of rust. It's a shame they don't make the unit out of stainless steel.

I just bought one today. have not installed it yet but I hope it works well. its still April and its hitting 96° in Southern California already.

Very nice, just wish you could show the bracket you made to secure it to the wall.

4:14 7:46 rip headphone users, that was way way way too loud vs the volume of your voice.

[Caliguy]

Did you use the mounting brackets for the inside as well? Or did you just secure it on the outside?

I know this is an older video, but I'm hoping someone might see this and can help me. For reference, I live in an older home with wood framed windows and sils. The window where my cooler is installed is higher up. What I'm curious about is even with the spacer outside, what's preventing and or how can I prevent the unit from falling backwards, especially when full of water???? The spacer outside helped keep the unit level, but it doesn't or won't prevent it from leaning or falling back. Help

Hi, did you attach/drill the wood spacer into the wall or just attach the unit to it???

Water is coming from the fan when i put it on cool. How can i fix it

[mmar]

What did you put on the window to close the gap?

[barbarantia]

I need a replacement remote for this. How do I order one?

[zacatecassize]

I just purchased one and installed it...and it smells funky was that the same case with yours

[alittlewheiser]

I save hundreds of dollars by using this. It pays for itself within a couple of months. Sometimes your electric service provider will offer a rebate.

a question? how do i throw the water please help

Just bought one and your video was really helpful. I will need mount ours much the same as you did on the outside wall, but did you also mount at the window sill with the enclosed brackets? It just seems as though once the filter is wet and the reservoir has water, the two enclosed mounting screws and plastic tabs on the outside portion of the unit are not enough. Have you experienced any issues with fatigue at the mounting points yet? Thanks!

[Caliguy]

After you put the screws in after pulling the fan all the way out, should there be play at all? Back and forth?

I’m really struggling on how to change the pads

How much water does it use in a really
hot month?
