Note:It does not have a compressor or use refrigerant gas, therefore, it will not cool like an air conditioner. In addition, the unit only works well in hot dry climates were air humidity is low.The Honeywell 300 CFM indoor evaporative air cooler offers an energy efficient cooling option when the air is hot with low humidity, such as desert areas like the southwestern United States (recommended humidity level is 60% or less for maximum efficiency). Honeywell evaporative air coolers do not require power hungry components like compressors. The low power consumption (only 102 watts) translates into significant savings on energy bills compared to using air conditioners. Just unpack, add water/ice, place near open door or window, plug it in, and use. This unit is ideal for indoor use in open environments with adequate cross ventilation up to 175 square feet. Four fan speeds and oscillating louvers evenly distribute cool air through the honeycomb cooling media while the carbon dust filter cleanses the air. One should not expect an evaporative air cooler to work as effectively as refrigerated air conditioning. However, the advantages of the evaporative air cooler over refrigerated air conditioning are: low purchase cost, low electricity usage, and maximum portability. For those living in more humid climates, consider portable air conditioning units or window air conditioners.
