Evaporative coolers

Evaporative Cooling systems

Evaporative cooling is a natural, cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional air conditioning.

The evaporative cooling system is a very popular alternative to traditional refrigeration air conditioning for many reasons. The main one being that is incredibly cost-effective and in comparison, it could save you over 90% in cooling costs and uses just 10% of the energy.

Industrial evaporative air coolers from EcoCooling build on this natural occurrence by installing EcoCoolers into ventilation systems to naturally cool the air. Fans draw the ambient outdoor air through saturated cooler pads to produce the evaporative cooling effect. The fresh, cool air is then delivered into the desired environment. As warm air rises and becomes old it is removed through an extractor fan on the roof.

 

Advantages of Using Direct Evaporative Cooling

• No refrigerants, completely natural cooling process which uses only fresh air.
• Low running and maintenance costs
• Low carbon and energy use
• Exploits the maximum amount of free cooling available
• Low energy use even at partial population
• No use of recycled air

 

Evaporative cooling offers guaranteed supply temperatures of under 25C in the UK, even on the hottest days.

A single EcoCooler, can show carbon savings of up to 10,000kg per year and cost less than 15p per hour to run. A single cooler can provide cooling for up to 250m² of floor space.
