Overview

Description

The Honeywell 470 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 250 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 280 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. For those living in more humid climates, consider portable air conditioning units or window air conditioners.

On the plus side - it'll cool and humidify the air; control panel offers lots of options On the down side - ridiculous amount of time having to refill the water and ice containers; requires a lot of water to work; have to have a large enough open window for air to come in and be cooled; noisy!

  We are sorry for the inconvenience caused to you because of this portable evaporative air cooler. The water tank can hold a maximum of pints of water, and hence will take some time to fil up. These units work best in areas with a dry climate with humidity levels of below 50-60%. They also require ample cross ventilation along with dry heat for optimal cooling. The effect of cool air best felt when placed near an open door or a window. Please feel free to write to us at [email protected] or call us at 1-800-474-2147, Monday - Friday 8:30 AM - 5:30 PM (EST), with the reference code number BBC0717. We look forward to making this right for you. Thank You !

It leaks from the back. Works okay, when it’s not too hot. 100 degrees up doesn’t feel cold gotta keep refilling ice to stay cold.

  We are sorry to hear this. Our portable evaporative air coolers work best in areas with a dry climate, with humidity levels below 50-60%. These also require ample cross ventilation along with dry heat for optimal cooling.
  This unit is not an air conditioner as it does not use a compressor or refrigerant gas. It should not be expected to cool as efﬁciently as a refrigerated air conditioner. Please feel free to reach out to us at 1-800-474-2147 between 8:30 am and 5:30 pm EST Monday through Friday or send us an email at [email protected]. Our team will be happy to assist you in case of any concerns. Thank You.
