PORT-A-COOL®´s operating costs are much lower than those of a central air conditioner. The initial equipment cost is also lower than air conditioners. Along with lower operating costs and simple installation, evaporative cooling can be a perfect, ozone-friendly alternative to traditional air conditioning.
It operates at a 10th of the cost of conventional airconditioning and is capable of cooling hundreds of square meters 7 degrees or more, saving PORT-A-COOL® customers hundreds, or even thousands euros per season!
Since PORT-A-COOL® is a state of the art, high efficiency, portable evaporative cooling system, its high efficiency cooling media coupled with a unique housing design, allows PORT-A-COOL® to cool effectively in very high relative humidity conditions. Since, as its name implies, it is portable, PORT-A-COOL® can be easily moved around shops, factories, back yards, sporting events and hundreds of other areas for maximum effectiveness, comfort and increased productivity. PORT-A-COOL® uses a specially designed ridged cooling media, contained in a properly designed housing to insure effective direction of the air over the water saturated media at the proper air velocity.
Applications
The PORT-A-COOL® has hundreds of applications, the area needs to be well ventilated, the more ventilation the better the PORT-A-COOL® will work. When there is no ventilation, there will be an increase of humidity, with ventilation there won´t be an increase in humidity.

Reduce heat stress construction site

Workers in the construction sector are particularly at risk given their regular exposure to high temperatures, heated metals, and over-heated confined spaces. Additionally, high temperatures can hamper the precision required for many construction environments.
  • Heat also presents many secondary hazards. We all know from experience that too much heat makes us irritable, uncomfortable, and less alert. Accidents can also occur due to the slipperiness of sweaty palms, dizziness, or fogging safety glasses. The potential for burns from accidental contact with hot surfaces is also a possibility. Proper safety training on heat stress and its associated hazards is vital for the health and well-being of workers. It is good business as well as a humane approach to be sure employees are alert to the warning signals their bodies issue under heat stress and are prepared to respond for their personal health and safety - and that of their co-workers, as well.
  • Situations involving construction present their own unique heat stress risks. Often construction requires entry into tight and confined spaces where temperatures can be significantly higher than normal working conditions. Anyone can suffer from heat stress. Many workers assume that because they are young and in good physical shape that they are immune to heat stress. While some people are at a greater risk of developing symptoms than others, anyone could become a victim of heat illness if environmental conditions overwhelm your body's ability to regulate its temperature.
  • Symptoms of heat-related illnesses can range from rashes and sunburns to cramps, exhaustion, and heat stroke. Heat rashes, sunburns, and heat cramps can be painful and uncomfortable, but they are not life threatening. Heat exhaustion and heat stroke are more serious conditions. If a co-worker suffers from a heat illness, your ability to recognize the symptoms and apply the proper treatment can be vital to saving a life.
We invite you to take a look at our website www.lc-europe.com and www.port-a-cool.com for more information on how to beat the heat at work.

PortACool supplier cooling auto and after-market industry

Finding a cooling solution for hot, open-door garages can be an ongoing challenge for auto enthusiasts, hobbyists and business owners.  Air conditioning for these areas can be impractical and cost-prohibitive.
Evaporative cooling units to the rescue! The auto, and after-market industry has been relying on Port-A-Cool units for years as a cost-effective solution.  
describe the imageRecently, Cruiseman’s Garage (@CruisemanGarage; https://www.facebook.com/CruisemansGarage) contacted our team to test-drive a Port-A-Cool Cyclone for his motorcycle garage.  As Chris Dikmen can attest to in Texas heat, acquiring a cooling source is more than an amenity – it can be a true necessity.  “I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had to stop during a project for a break just because it is just too hot outside,” says Chris in his review.

For those that want to cool up to 250 square meter or simply want to add it to their “tricked out garage,” larger units such as the 36” unit provide over 17.000 m3/h of powerful, chilled air.  We teamed up with West Coast Customs out of California (famous for transforming cars for celebrities and corporations by renown car customizer Ryan Friedlinghaus and his crew) to provide units to their specialty shop.  Their employees were, well, blown away by the effectiveness of the Port-A-Cool unit. You can catch episodes of their work on Fox Sports each Sunday.  (#westcoastcustoms; @officialwcc) http://www.westcoastcustoms.com/tv/

The guys at Overhaulin' (#Overhaulin) have also used our Port-A-Cool unit to keep cool and have some fun on-set:

Whether a small shop or a massive operation, our evaporative cooling units allow those in the garage to cool-off simply by connecting to a water hose (for automatic water refills) and a typical 220 volt outlet.  Even better, it costs just cents per hour to operate.

Customer experience PortACool evaporative coolers

Our customers say it best when they praise Port-A-Cool® products!
Thank you for the great support and being there if I have any questions! The unit is doing exactly what you said it would and I think even a bit more. We were struggling with such a large area (30K+ Sq Ft) trying to keep the temperature at a safe working level, with these units, we’re not going to have that issue any longer! It’s so easy to operate! It took only a few minutes to figure out optimal ways of running it, which is also a nice feature, it adapts to different situations and temps. It’s as easy as; plug and play! It’s so nice to be able to move it wherever its needed and not just stay stationary and it only takes one person to move it. We were able to run a direct water line to the machine with no issues and if we aren’t able to run a line to it due to the area it’s in, it is simple to fill the LARGE reservoir and go. We will defiantly be purchasing a second, third and fourth unit for our areas. Thanks for your great product and on-point customer service!
Hunter Austin, Operations Manager, Fastenal Manufacturing 

As the owner of three waterfront outdoor restaurants in South Florida I wanted tell you what an asset your “Coolers” are to our locations. The customers think they are fantastic. I’m impressed that in the four years since we began using your product there has been virtually no maintenance or repair and they do get a lot of use. Thank you for providing us with an excellent solution for those hot South Florida days. 
Bob Gregory, Restaurant Owner 

We bought a 48” Port-A-Cool for use at work. It just happened to arrive on the same day as twelve 18 wheelers pulled up to unload at our facility. The first thing we did was unpack the Port-A-Cool and start it up before the unloading process began. It was a hot day and there was no way we could have finished the job without the quick cool downs the employees were able to do during the process. We now use it daily and it keeps our facility 5-7 degrees cooler. We especially like the portability and low noise level of the unit. We are able to talk on our cell phones while standing in front of the unit keeping cool. 
Tague Estes, VP of Operations, TriFun 

With high temperatures of south Mississippi on top of the extreme heat of our presses, the huge A/C’s piping cool air directly to each of the steam press positions could not keep the temperature from rising to unsafe levels. We bought a couple of 36” Port-A-Cool@ evaporative fans and found that they did a super job of supplementing our A/C’s and greatly enhanced the comfort and safety of our employees. We are very satisfied with the results. I would highly recommend them for use anywhere since they work in this extreme situation.
