Swamp coolers (also known as evaporative coolers) efficiently cool hot, dry climates while using less energy than traditional air conditioners. Environmentally friendly and cost-effective, they consume roughly 1/10th the power of portable air conditioner—running 10 hours on the same energy an AC uses in just one hour. Unlike standard fans, swamp coolers also humidify and purify the air.

But when your cooler malfunctions, try these solutions before calling a professional:

1. Check Power Supply

• Ensure the unit is plugged in securely.
• Verify your outlet works by testing another device.
• Check circuit breakers or fuses for tripping.

2. Review Timer Settings

• If your cooler has a timer, confirm it’s not set to turn off automatically.
• Disable the timer function to test normal operation.

3. Inspect Water Levels

• Symptom: Fan runs, but no cooling occurs.
• Cause: Low water triggers the pump’s safety shutoff.
• Fix: Refill the tank immediately. Most units resume pumping within minutes after refilling.

4. Diagnose Component Failure

• Fan won’t spin? Likely a motor issue.
• Control panel unresponsive? Faulty wiring, PCB (control board), or disconnected internal lines.
• Solution: For these issues, contact a certified technician. Avoid DIY repairs on electrical components.
