Welcome to BBQ food for you the backyard barbecue show
I'm Jason King today i'm going to be showing everyone a great way to stay
cool in the hot summer heat
this is the honeywell portable evaporative air cooler
before getting started let's answer a few questions on what an evaporative air
cooler is and how they work
first question has to be how do they work honeywell's outdoor air coolers use
cold water and/or ice to blow cool air into the space
water is drawn from the tank through the filter and out the fan to cool the air
cooling the temperature of the space approximately 10 to 15 degrees cooler
this model has a continuous water supply all you need is to hook up a garden hose
there's a top-loading ice compartment that's optional if you want to use the
ice
it's also great for keeping the bugs away just with the fan energy use is
very low almost equivalent 250 watt light bulb so barely takes any power
yes they are made to resist the outdoor conditions with proper wiring switches
and all the parts made to stay outside case it rains
an air cooler can be used for all different types of applications around
your house or business
the main goal is to stay comfortable and spend more time outside for me it's
cooking barbecue having family and friends over this would be perfect
anyone that has a pool gotta sit outside watch the kids in those hot summer days
turn this on
also great for seniors and kids got to watch the temperatures stay cool as well
inside the box to find the user manual along with a safety and maintenance
guide the only piece to hook up
is this little adapter if you want to run a garden hose to it
nice heavy-duty breaker built right into the plug at the top of the unit you have
three switches your swing on and off that will control the left and right you
have three different speeds and you're cool
this can also be used as a great fan when you turn this on
it kicks the water on but if you want to just use it as a fan you can leave that
off
here's the water-filled or really not going to be using this maybe put some
ice in here but I'm going to have the direct hookup for it on the front of the
unit you have a water gauge minimum maximum these two switches control the
air movement up and down on the left side this is your garden hose attachment
that i'll put the adapter on
and here's a quick peek at the bag
here's a quick peek at the bottom you got nice heavy duty casters the two at
the back have locks on them
so once you get in a place you can lock it down the wind won't blow to anywhere
and this is your water drain plug when you put the water hose adapter on
take your time make sure you got the threads right hand tighten it and then
just half a turn with a wrench
they're plastic threads in here you don't want to put it on too tight and
strip them just turned on the water
not sure if you can hear it but the gauge is slowly going up
if you do have high water pressure where you live just gently barely turn the tap
on and there's a valve in here that will open and close as water is needed
so you won't have to worry about any type of overflowing or it running dry
once the water fills up i'm going to plug the shotgun mic into the camera
this picks up a lot of ambient noises we'll see how loud the fan is and how
everything runs to go going to switch the speed on 21 and then turn the cool
on
hopefully we can see the water going over the median filter
there's number one I gotta say already this is nice just the same
i'm going to switch it on the cool
you have
so Tom silent perfect
you're not going to the water coming down
so i guess just give this government is still totally saturated
to get even cooler air add ice to the ice holder
when the ice melts it's going to go down the fill tube and into the water
reservoir making it even cooler
I must say standing in front of this it feels good
nice cool air haha now it's time for the real test
got the outdoor air cooler set up on the deck BBQ smoking away on a gorgeous day
it's nice and cool about 10 feet away it's cool down this whole area
great addition to any deck you're looking to purchase one of these units
