Desert Shop cooling questions
I live in DRY XXTREME SW Utah.
I have two 20' x 8' containers. Inbetween them is 16' of space. I am enclosing the ends of the space with covered gates, and putting a roof on the whole 1320 sf. I want to put evaporative coolers in there. I see them that are stationary, and pull outside air and blow it inside. I also see roll around evaporative coolers. Which one works better? It seems that pulling 105 degree air from the outside and cooling it would only give so much of a temperature drop. Pulling inside air, say 85 degree and cooling it might work better. BUT, the inside air would be humidified somewhat, and I don't know if the evaporative effect would be as great. Plus, the roll arounds seem to have to be filled manually, although I could use a hose, but that would be just another trip hazard on the floor. Stationary ones would have a hard plumbed copper pipe, and would stay full automatically. I would actually like to have the roll arounds for inside the containers so that I could move them to the container/s in use. And for the space between, a stationary one would be good. Just wondering how the roll arounds work vs. stationary ones. Insights? Steve Heart surgery pending? www.cabgbypasssurgery.com Heart Surgery Survival Guide |
