Devola 60L Evaporative Swamp Air Cooler 80m² White/Grey - DVCO60P
A powerful air cooler boasting a 60L water tank,

Where does the 60 litres of water go when this or any other Evaporative Air Cooler is running? These machines are deadly in a home or anywhere else causing untold damage to the premises.

So please say a bit more about the potential damage they can cause..................creating damp I presume.
I looked at the promo and thought what a great idea...................and a good price.

But I bought a number of indispensable K-Tel products that also convinced me (remember them)
Yes, I remember them.

I am not going to be drawn into a long discussion on this subject, however a few points to think about.

Most of our homes have loft insulation, wall insulation, double glazed windows and draught proof doors. Some people have recently decided to have their roof insulated???. In other words they have placed a tea cosy over their home.

During the summer months we are advised to keep our windows closed and to "Draw the curtains to keep the heat out". I must admit we tend to do this most days and it works for us.

If an air conditioning unit (ACU) was now installed the above conditions would be ideal.

On the other hand, the installation of an Evaporative Cooling System (that requires lots of ventilation) would be a complete disaster. By introducing gallons of evaporated water to the home would eventually cause unseen damage. Dampness everywhere, wallpaper, books, electrical equipment, woodwork and carpets.

You do come out with some crap Drew,

You say that I come out with some crap? at least I don't buy crap, not like someone on here who seems to boast about it.

How is the fridge in your new motorhome coming along? or is the motorhome on eBay yet?
