Description:

Edgestar High Velocity Evaporative Swamp Cooler / Portable Air Cooler

The EdgeStar High Velocity Portable Air Cooler (EAC421) is the most powerful, best cooling portable air cooler for home use on the market today. Don't confuse it with smaller air coolers - this is the only air cooler we have seen that boasts the power to provide relief from the heat for an entire room (up to about 250 square feet, based on our product tests). EdgeStar teamed a powerful (yet quiet) state-of-the-art centrifugal fan with an Australian-made honeycomb water curtain to perform much better than coolers from the competition. The honeycomb water curtain allows more water circulation with less resistance to airflow, and the centrifugal fan gently and powerfully "throws" a jet of air up to 25 feet - the longest air throw in the industry!

Don't confuse this portable air cooler with other models on the market - the EdgeStar EAC421 portable air cooler offers features and value that the competition can't match. In addition to the above features, the EdgeStar high velocity portable air cooler also features 3 different fan speeds, the option to add ice for additional cooling, a long-lasting 5 gallon water reservoir, a remote control, a fan-only setting, and the ability to operate as a humidifier. Plus, it only uses 250 Watts to cool- that's about 1/4 the energy required by most air conditioners!

  • Coldest Airflow:

    We tested this EdgeStar portable air cooler against other units currently in the market and its airflow was as much as 5°F colder than the best-performing competitor

  • Room-Cooling Power:

    With its powerful centrifugal fan and honeycomb water curtain cooling system, this unit can provide cool relief to multiple people in rooms of up to 250 square feet

  • Environmentally-Friendly:

    Unlike portable air conditioners, this unit uses no freon and no CFC's- and it consumes 1/4 the power of and air conditioner

NOTE: This unit is not a portable air conditioner. We tested this unit under varying conditions and found it helped relieve heat in rooms of up to 250 square feet. However, if you need true air conditioning, please see our full selection of portable air conditioners

    Edgestar High Velocity Portable Air Cooler 4.2 5 23 27
    Much improved over the older version. Very quiet. No water noise like the older version. Easy to fill and very efficient. Nice functional features, looks good for what it is and reasonably priced. Moves easily, even on carpet. June 11, 2013
    Wonderful summer purchase This cooler is wonderful. I love the timer and the remote options. You do need to use it next to a window without air flow it doesn't work well. The water fill allows ice which makes the air even colder great item. Would buy again. June 7, 2013
    Great Unit, if you understand evap coolers. Honeycomb Evaporator is miles above the old Aspen pad style cooler. Efficient cooling without excessive moisture. Reaches optimum cool output after about 15 minutes of running. A little loud, but puts out a lot of air. If you can fall asleep with the TV on, you can fall asleep with this unit running.

    i can't believe it.. am in love with this thing! i live in the desert, 110 degrees is not unusual. i also have EIGHT house rabbits, who have been stuck in their houses so they don't stray from their water bottles. NOT GOOD! the only experince i'd ever had with "swamp coolers" was the car dealership. it was just like being back in the deep south. our son is graduating with a degree in heating, refrigeration and ventilation, and he's spent the last 3 weekends working on our central air unit, and everything he tests says it works, but it keeps freezing up. he got it working to a point, but there's something very expensive wrong .sorry, have a habit of not editing myself very well. my son DID get the central to run, it works great for a few hours, .BUT THIS COOLER WORKS BETTER! i love it. i even have to turn it off at night. it's only a little noisy, but only if you want to watch tv. after son's first look, we bought a small unit from home depot or lowe's , but we still have to run two fans & give every bunny an ice bottle 2-3 times /day (they have no internal cooling system). this edgestar is cooling me, in a cathedral roomed living room, and, if placed correctly, adds cool to the kitchen and some to the bunny's room. and if mommy' is cool, everybody's happy! bottom line, THANK YOU MICHAEL, i don't think i could be happier. thanks, so much, i really can't afford it, but i love this thing, with the extended warranty, i think it may be one of my best purchases ever! haven't tried in the bedroom yet, but if cools downstairs, i think it cool the garage if i wanted it to! (darn. no pix. maybe next time) July 30, 2012

    A: 
    The unit is designed for use indoors, but it could be used outdoors. However, doing so will decrease the efficiency of the unit, and it will not perform as it would indoors as the unit is greatly influenced by ambient temperature.

    Details: 
    Office has evening sun, work won't lower the AC to properly cool in the afternoon. Will this supplement by lowering the temp by 2-3 degrees? How often does the water have to be emptied?

    A: 
    I use the unit in a 3000 sqft house to cool a separate room more than the standard A/C seems to do. It works well, but you must circulate the air to keep the humidity down.

    A: 
    Yes, this unit can cool an area up to 250 square feet. The water tank holds 5 gallons of water at a time and the frequency that you would need to refill it depends on how much it is being used, but not often if it is only being used for supplemental cooling. Thank you for your question.
