Hi All,

My swamp cooler (Champion RWC50) is hanging from chains
in my window. Probably be a good idea to put it in
a stand.

Any kits for that out there?

Many thanks,

If you have screw hooks into the window frame with chains that will hold 250 lbs that will work if the window sill is strong enough to support 250 lbs which should be easy to handle unless rotted.
As for a stand I would use wood but not a complete base/ top as the drain is usually on the bottom of them and the water will rot the wood very fast.. PVC makes a great stand if used with stakes to anchor it to the ground, it is not harmed by water however sunlight will harm some,spray paint will alleviate this.
