Blemished Evaporative Air Cooler and Tower Fan, Portable| White | NewAir EC300W

Evaporative Cooling on Demand

No matter where you live, the EC300W Tower Fan provides plenty of airflow to your home to keep you cooler. The fan oscillates to keep fresh air moving throughout your space, making your skin feel 7 to 8 degrees cooler than the air temperature.

If you live in the southwestern United States, your dry climate is the perfect place to add the cooling power of evaporation to your fan's function. Simply slide the paddle control downward to lower the cooling pad into the water supply, and your tower fan becomes an evaporative cooler that can rival the effectiveness of a portable air conditioner, all without any chemical refrigerants or high energy bills.

Powerful, Quiet Cooling

The NewAir EC300W Portable Tower Fan With Evaporative Cooling has four fan speeds that provide up to 600 CFMs of power. That's enough airflow to cool 640 sq. ft. of living space at a time. It also has a silent setting that's perfect for babies and other light sleepers. The two operation modes allow you to take advantage of evaporative cooling on dry days and fan-only settings when it's more humid. The water reservoir is even big enough to accommodate DIY ice packs for an extra burst of cold air.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why isn't my evaporative cooler making the room colder?

Despite their nickname, swamp coolers are designed to work best in hot, dry climates, so you may still need an air conditioner if you live in a humid area. You can also troubleshoot by adding more water to the tank, attaching a DIY ice pack to boost cooling power, or opening windows to let additional dry air flow inside to keep things comfortable.

Should I bother with evaporative cooling if I already have an air conditioner?

Yes! Indoor evaporative cooling systems can be used on the driest days in any climate as a more eco-friendly and cost-effective alternative to traditional air conditioning. You can also use a portable evaporative air cooler on your patio, in your garage or other rooms your A/C doesn't reach.

How many gallons of water does the reservoir hold?

This portable evaporative cooler holds about 5 gallons of water in its tank. That's enough for several hours to half a day's worth of cooling, though the time between refills will depend on your indoor air humidity, the ambient temperature and your preferred fan speed.
