Cool Your Home At A Fraction Of The Cost Of Air Conditioning.
The Envirocool Is An Ingenious Product That Is Revolutionizing The Home Cooling Market!
The Envirocool system is an evaporative cooling air inlet device used in conjunction with the Quiet Cool whole house fans (sold separately) that allows you to cool your home far more efficiently and effectively than a conventional air conditioner or by using our whole house fans alone
The Envirocool is a "Green Product" that helps to save energy and money on your air conditioning bill. It can cool your home for just pennies an hour versus dollars an hour spent on running central or window air conditioners.
Even during some of the hottest days, the Envirocool can cool your home to a comfortable 70-78 degree F and leave the interior air at an ideal 45% to 60% humidity level.
By pulling in fresh natural air from the outside, the Envirocool helps to get rid of unwanted dirty air consisting of dust, germs, mold, mildew, pollen, smoke, odors and chemicals that have accumulated.
A convenient thermostat automatically controls your temperature, meaning you don't have to manually flip a switch or open windows to operate the system.
The Envirocool is very quiet. It operates so quietly, you will hardly notice it when it's running.
It cools your home and your entire attic as well, thus eliminating hot air from entering your home through your ceiling insulation.
Compared to a new air conditioner, the installed cost of the Envirocool is a small fraction of the cost.
The Envirocool Is Not Your Grandma's Swamp Cooler!
This system is not the troublesome old evaporative cooler or "Swamp Cooler" that many homeowners have come to know from the past.
There is no excessive moist, humid air being forced into the home, leaving it damp and smelly.
There is no loud or noisy fan blowing.
There is no big or ugly box hanging to your windows or sitting on top of your roof.
There is no tedious maintenance requiring you to change the cooler pads, clean the sump, or cover the unit during the cold winter months.

Envirocool - FAQ's
How does it work?
The Envirocool unit consists of eight square feet of a patented high tech 8 inch thick cellulose media over which a small water pump circulates water that trickles down through the media and into a drain pan. Turning on your Quiet Cool fans installed in the attic creates a negative pressure (vacuum) that draws outside air into the home through the openings in the media. As the outside air passes through the media, it is cooled by evaporation, as much as 35 degrees F. This cooled air is drawn all the way through the home and up into the Quiet Cool fans that discharge it into the attic. This cooled air is then forced out of the attic vents by pressure provided by the Quiet Cool fans.
Will it work without the Quiet Cool fans?
The Quiet Cool fans are necessary to make it work. There is no fan or blower motor in the Envirocool. The fact that the air is sucked all the way through the house and up into the attic and out the attic vents by the Quiet Cool fans is what makes this operate so much more effectively than a conventional evaporative cooler.
What models are available?
There are two models - a vertical and a horizontal. The horizontal Model #EC-4824 is normally placed under a window, and the vertical Model #EC-3040 is normally placed in a side or rear exterior wall.
What size do I need for my home?
There are two models, but each is about the same size. one unit will normally accommodate a home up to 2,000 sq. ft.
A home 2,100 to 4,000 sq. ft. would normally require two units.
How much does it cool?
The amount of cooling is dependent on the relative humidity. The temperature of the cooled air can be calculated knowing the outside air temperature and the outside wet bulb temperature. In very dry desert climates, it can cool 110 deg. F outside air down to about 72 degrees. In moderate humidity climates such as inland areas of Southern California , 100 deg. F outside air can normally be cooled to 70 to 72 degrees F. In very high humidity areas, outside air can still be cooled 10 to 20 degrees.
Will it work in my climate?
Yes, it will work in almost all climates. It is most effective in hot dry desert climates, but even in humid climates, it will still cool your home 10 to 20 degrees F. cooler than the outside temperature.
How much electricity does it use?
There is only one moving part in the Envirocool, which is the water pump that only uses 25 Watts of power.
How much water does it use?
In a hot dry desert climate it uses the most water - about 3 gallons per hour. In a full days use, that's about as much as one person taking a shower, or a garden hose being turned on for 3 minutes.
What maintenance is required?
About fifteen minutes, twice a year to clean the water pan and check for proper water flow is all that is needed to keep the Envirocool operating properly.
Where on my house should it be located?
It should be located on a lower exterior wall as far as possible from the location of the Quiet Cool fans.
Will it cool the upstairs of a two- story house?
With the Envirocool installed on a lower floor wall and the Quiet Cool fans installed in the attic above the second story, the cooled air is drawn up into the second story and will allow the second floor to be as cool as the first floor.
What about bringing dirty, dusty outside air into the house?
In almost all locations, the outside air is actually cleaner than inside air, but whatever dust and dirt is in the outside air is washed by the water flowing down through the media. The dirt is deposited into the water pan which is automatically drained out every evening when the Envirocool turns itself off.
What is the cost of an Envirocool?
The cost of an Envirocool (excluding installation), is less than a fourth the cost of a conventional air conditioner. Please give us a call to obtain current pricing.
How long does it take to install an Envirocool?
A typical installation should take 2 workers less than 4 hours for installation.
How do I keep cold air from entering in the winter?
The Envirocool assembly includes a set of insulated gravity closed dampers that keep cold air from intruding when it is not running. They only open up when the Quiet Cool fans are on.
How do I use the Envirocool System?
Very easy - just close all the windows and turn on the Quiet Cool fans. The Envirocool runs automatically on a thermostat.
Do I Need To Worry About Hardwater Deposits?
No. The Envirocool comes with an in-line replacable water filter. The filter is good about 1 years. A new filter is easy to change. Replacement filters can be ordered from us.
Warranty is 5 years on parts.
