hi cookie
swamp coolers only work when there is no humidity
that is why everyone in tucson has them
loddy has prolly fixed them so many times, he can explain the mechanics
it is preferable to air conditioning cause you can leave windows and doors open
and since only a motor runs, it doesn't jack up electric bill that much
the real name is evaporative coolers, I dont know how it got nicknamed swamp coolers
if you were sitting on beach by a lake and wind was blowing over lake towards you
it would send cool breezes to you
this is the principle of swampcooler
somehow water is in them, and a blower must blow over them
and these breezes are sent all thru the house thru the vents

air conditioning is refrigeration which is another principle
Love, Palo

Morning Sweetness. Here in CenTex our humidity
forces us to use AirConditioning to remove the
high humidity from our buildings.
