Big Ass Fans Launches New Product Line of Cool-Space® Portable Evaporative Coolers

You know Big Ass Fans as a top provider of air circulation and air disinfection solutions for both indoor and outdoor use. Well they’re at it again! Big Ass Fans launched a brand new line of four portable evaporative coolers under the name Cool-Space® and the entire line was named the best new “Heat Stress Protection” product of 2021 by Occupational Health & Safety.

With the country seeing wildly fluctuating, record-setting temperatures, keeping cool takes on an even greater importance. In both public and residential settings alike, the ability to lower temperatures during a heat wave can directly affect health and wellness. And creating a work environment that ensures employees’ safety and comfort is the best way to handle business, while also benefiting the bottom line. Read on to learn how a Cool-Space® unit could help your efforts to stay cool this summer.

Cool-Space® Key Features

Big Ass Fans’ line of Cool-Space® models comes with a range of convenient controls and features that set these machines apart. They are also easily incorporated into your existing cooling system when used in combination with existing overhead fans, yielding the best, most efficient relief from excessive heat. In fact these units can reduce the temperature in your space by up to 33 °F, even in extreme conditions. Cool-Space® units operate at low decibel levels and are ideal for both work and play.

Big Ass Fans’ evaporative coolers allow air to pass through wet cooling media and absorb moisture in a vaporized state. The moistened air then absorbs ambient heat, reducing air temperature. The process will add a slight amount of humidity to the air, but adequate ventilation ensures that humidity doesn’t build up. If air is already humid the cooler will still be able to offer a drop in temperature that combines with the fan’s impact to create a chill factor of about 15 or 20 degrees. Because water is in a vapor state, you’ll never need to worry about a Cool-Space® unit creating puddles or wet spots. Under the recommended maintenance and cleaning regimen cooling media can last for up to 5 years.

Beyond all these great features, the Cool-Space® range is also an affordable option for small businesses and homeowners. Each unit is factory-tested and ready for immediate use in your space––just attach the wheels and connect a water source.
