What is evaporative cooling and how does your evaporative air conditioner work?

[@angiestojanovski1463]

Thank you for sharing I am thinking of getting a Breezair supercool EXS180 how many square meters will this air-conditioning do without struggling and how many outlets can I have. Also can you tell me if the air-conditioning is a little big will it be a problem or will it just keep my house cooler easier and not struggling on very hot day or humid days. Thank you for you help

[@GarrlicSauce]

I have no idea

[@allskillsevaporativeandgas]

Hi Angie, so sorry to only see this now, we always recommend getting a in-home consultation from someone representing Breezair. A bigger machine doesn’t always make it cooler, the trick is to install an evap cooler to work as efficiently as possible.

Great video, great info. Wish you were in Arizona!

[@nursaeed]

Nailed it with the video guys. Checked all the boxes, especially relating the energy consumption to very common household items. Great way to explain the air flow with simple but very easy to understand drawings. Cheers!

[@allskillsevaporativeandgas]

Thank you so much, it’s mind boggling that this info isn’t readily available. Stoked it was useful!

[@szeredaiakos]

I like to run my 750W hair dryer 16h straight every day.

[@AkashSingh-km9iw]

Exactly my point. Wrong comparison

[@mjowsey]

Great video. I didn't know that the fan uses the same power whatever speed it's set to. But that makes sense. I cleaned a load of black off of the ceiling vents... I guess that means there's a load of mould in the ducts?

[@ThePipster2]

Thank you so much for making this video. We were doing everything wrong😂 You are a legend! It has been very frustrating trying to work out what we were doing wrong. Thanks so much!🎉

[@allskillsevaporativeandgas]

Thank you. My mission was to educate people because 80 percent of the time when I go into peoples homes they were not using it correctly 😊

[@dinocub1]

awesome well detailed video. Thanks. Super humid day today and there's water on our tiles throughout the home. Was trying to conserve energy by having the system on low being watchful on energy consumption. Will crank it. ;)

[@patriciapratt570]

Thank you, I was never sure of how much window space to open. I live in the Antelope Valley, SoCal. It will be 112 today😅

[@paulafrazier9105]

Thank you. I'll be moving into a home with an evap cooler later this month. I've never used one before, and want to be sure that I'm using it correctly. This really helped me to understand what should and shouldn't be done when using mine :)

[@didicam8575]

You should get a window fan with air extractor to blow out the air

[@Bendjamum]

Top Video mate, very difficult trying to find an informative well presented video on anything let alone air cons you nailed it bro

[@wyomingjody6470]

I think my evaporative cooler needs service. 😊❤️

[@deeoh3708]

Thanks Damian. Can now use mine with more confidence. I had too many windows open!!

[@atomicspyful]

Any tips on very humid days ?

[@michellebirch]

Great video Damian! I didn’t know that about hairdryers and the juice blender! Good to know!

[@allskillsevaporativeandgas]

That’s awesome to hear, It’s important because people don’t understand how cheaply evaporative air conditioning can cool your entire home, I think the average is $0.25/hour.

[@theozdemir06]

Thank you for the guidance Damian.

[@allskillsevaporativeandgas]

Hey! Thanks so much for taking the time to watch the video, we’re glad it helped, it’s little things like this that make all the difference 😊

[@davidoneill7554]

If an Australian is talking about HVAC I listen because y’all got summers that make our 104F weather seem brisk 🥵

[@SpectreOZ]

We get 45+ Celcius days here in summer, high humidity renders the evaporative coolers less and less effective and thus a conventional reverse cycle cooling system is necessary.

[@PrincessMissRuby]

Great video thank you 😊

[@johnnyslist9355]

I’m in SA, I just turn the cnt on.

[@ianyoung2221]

[@allskillsevaporativeandgas]

Thanks Ian, appreciate that you took the time to watch it 😊

[@joysilva777]

@allskillsevaporativeandgas I had a plumbing company install a brand new BONAIRE evaporative cooler on my roof and they could never get the high-speed to work, only low. They keep insisting it's my switch inside my house but the switch worked originally on my last air conditioner and we have tried 5 different brand new switches. Can you point me to any of your videos that explain how to do the tension pulley for the fan because somebody suggested that's why the high-speed doesn't work.

[@allskillsevaporativeandgas]

Hello… we have never replaced a cooler and leave the old controller as it could damage the cooler and void warranty. I’m sorry you weren’t given good advise

[@hazelpartimeangel-lingerie3367]

Thank you for your video it really helps. My question I change the floater of my cooler and the water line, but it steals leaking the water line from the outside of the cooler. why is that. thank you in advance.

[@Freebyrd1991]

Did you use thread tape? The little white tape seals the threads from leaking

[@betsibest]

Why is my new BreezAir unit constantly draining water even when it is turned off

[@leedaq7767]

thanks for the info

[@waynepayne9875]

Is it ok to leave it on all day with proper ventilation? I worry about moisture. I live in country Victoria where it is pretty dry but still have concerns especially with carpet and upholstery.

[@allskillsevaporativeandgas]

Hi there. Yes you can run it 24/7 i do! If you find the floors getting damp you don’t have enough window space open

[@waynepayne9875]

@@allskillsevaporativeandgas Thanks for your reply. I've been running it most days now according to your tips and it's working heaps better than it was before. Whole house stays cool all day now that I direct all the air out through the main living area windows. Thanks heaps! No moisture issues at all 😃

[@ultraali453]

1:50 of course there is a relation between fan speed and energy consumption. The speed adjustment is literally a potentiometer and the fan is lightweight, so there isn't really much resistance from inertia or anything. Slow fan speed = Less volts = Less wattage

[@prajjwalsharma8798]

this potentiometer has a resistance in itself i think

[@bubblt]

Are the pads supposed to be warm and dry on the outside?

[@darkjill2007]

I've been checking out passive cooling for a bit now. I haven't tried working with one yet so this may be a dumb question. Why do you need the fan? Earth ships blow heat out and draw air in from a lower level past a long thermal mass and blow cool (ish) air into a house. Admittedly I imagine you have to redefine what your definition of cool is with this system. But if you were to introduce a water filter like the ones in your video into the process could you accomplish the same goal without the fan? I'm sure the throughput would be greater with a fan. Maybe the edition of a eco cooler would help offset the volume of air with cooler temps.

[@LawlessRaafay]

today in melbourne temp was around 33C, after using ducted cooling, I figured it out that my tiles are getting wet. Is this normal ? how to prevent this ?

[@waynepayne9875]

No you need to open more windows and don't use the evaporative when it's too humid. If your tiles are wet turn it to fan mode

[@marcgutterson6013]

Very informative video, cheers!

[@rajurampal464]

1:50 fan speed not directly related to power consumption,are you serious?

[@amanjain967]

Thanks for informative video Damian. A query. I am using Braemar Paradigm LCQ350 - Evaporative Cooler. Its says capacity as 10.1kw. Does that mean its motor is 10.1 kilo watt ? Thanks

[@damianearnshaw8120]

Hi... kW rating for evaps is a lose figure based on the size of the motor and the pad surface area... it was designed to help customers compare brands. However the size of the motor had little bearing on the air flow. One brand in particular needs 1500w to produce less air than another brand that uses 1000w However you really need to look at air flow and duct sizing. The problem is retailers often use smaller duct with smaller coolers to make it feel like there is allot of air pressure when infact you aren't getting adequate air changes per hour in your home. Your cooler uses 425w so it's nearly .5 of a kW

[@lexxi28]

Thankyou 🙌🙌🙌

[@nigelcranley7082]

I presume you do not service evaporative coolers on 2 story homes

[@ominousbloodline]

Great vid! Thanks!

[@sigglass2183]

Can swamp coolers be used as cooling towers to cool water used for cooling AC condensing coils?

[@damianearnshaw8120]

Yes this already a thing

[@allskillsevaporativeandgas]

That’s the only way it’s done on big systems like hotels

[@kijocar]

Seems is not usefull in humid cities. Still was nice to see Damian ;)

[@lilpopism]

They work best in dry heat climates. They don’t work in the northern parts of Australia due to the humidty. You’ll often find most of our east coast states have wall mounted split systems over evap systems. In Perth evaps are everywhere

[@ultraali453]

You're right, evaporative coolers consume less energy (compared to air conditioners).

[@javierdomenech4370]

Nice info video I live in Florida USA could use this system here thanks

[@Sousyned]

Evaporative cooling is pretty useless in humidity, so it’s probably not the most best for Florida.

[@bigdaddysacc]

I hear Florida weather is like Queensland weather which makes a swampy useless, they don't have evap up there so I'm positive it wouldn't be great to have in Florida either

[@Freebyrd1991]

🤣🤣🤣

[@TheAshaari]

👀 there's no way this works. my brain didn't register anything after you said open windows during the day lol I'm in Houston. 3 digit temperatures are the norm for summer. I may need to keep looking for ways to cool my home 😆 opened windows are not an option lol

[@Freebyrd1991]

You need an open window to exhaust the pressure and warm air out of the house as quickly as the cold(er) air comes in.

[@Freebyrd1991]

Women never know you need a window open for an evap cooler to work 🤣🤣. Are you even sure you have an evap cooler or do you have AC...tell me you know the difference...lol

[@AuntLALA]

@@Freebyrd1991 I had no idea this was something people really do until I researched these systems. I have an AC. I was being facetious 😏

Evaporative cooling is bullshit, just get an air conditioner.

[@key2010]

750 watts isn't little... AC units are far superior for double the energy consumption, which is still better bang for the buck

[@damianearnshaw6882]

750 w to cool your entire home... or x 1 1.5hp split system for one room is 3000w...... whats your point ?

[@damianearnshaw8120]

How so? This is for your entire home. A 3kw split system is 3000w per room? Please explain? Also this isn't a debate on what's better that's really a personal choice... I'm merely helping people improve their evaporative cooling experience 😎

AC units are going to be at least 5 times the consumption. But hey, burn your money if you wish 🤷‍♂️
