Restaurant IAQ Benefits
Constant Air Circulation: It continuously brings in fresh air from outside, reducing the buildup of stagnant and stale air in commercial kitchens.
Natural Air Filtration: The cooling pads filter out dust, grease, and other particles, ensuring a cleaner air environment in the kitchen.
Reduction of Pollutants and Odors: Fresh air helps dilute indoor pollutants, cooking fumes and odors, improving air quality in the kitchen.
Humidity Control: Our Hyper-Efficient indirect evaporative cooling system lowers temperatures without adding moisture to the air, preventing excess humidity.
No Recirculation: Unlike traditional HVAC systems, it doesn’t recirculate air, helping to avoid the buildup of stale air and kitchen contaminants.
Healthier Kitchen Environment: Cleaner, cooler, and properly humidified air promotes a more comfortable, productive and safer atmosphere for kitchen staff and guests.

Harness the power of Evaporative cooling
McDonald's Restaurant Case Study
The McDonald’s restaurant in Blackwater faced difficulties in cooling its kitchen due to heat from both the cooking equipment and the sun. The restaurant opted for the Climate Wizard Stand Alone Cooling system. This innovative solution efficiently cooled the fresh air extracted by the exhaust hoods, offering a more energy-efficient alternative to traditional refrigerated systems. As a result, the restaurant was able to install a smaller refrigerated system, achieving the same cooling effect with similar capital costs as one large system would have required. This approach led to an immediate 10% reduction in running costs and a short payback period for the new installation, greatly improving energy efficiency and providing significant cost savings for the restaurant.
Breezair units are perfect to be used as WetBox
Seeley International has successfully installed our premium WetBox units to enhance Indoor Air Quality and regulate temperature in industrial and commercial kitchens, significantly improving restaurant air conditioning systems.
Evaporative cooling is highly effective for restaurant air conditioning and commercial kitchens cooling, where maintaining a stable temperature is crucial for both product quality and staff comfort. This system enhances Indoor Air Quality by delivering 100% fresh, filtered outside air, improving ventilation while reducing CO2 and VOC levels. By preventing the recirculation of stale, exhaust air filled with odors and fumes, it creates a healthier and more pleasant environment. In commercial kitchens, where heat and humidity can quickly rise, evaporative cooling efficiently manages these factors, ensuring an optimal working space for kitchen staff and a safe, comfortable environment for food preparation.
Click on each application to explore the specific benefits for industrial cooling!
The evaporative air conditioning unit is a cost-effective cooling solution, ideal for industries, factories, warehouses, and large-format retail spaces. It provides efficient cooling while using up to 80% less energy than refrigerated systems, making it particularly effective in high-traffic areas where doors are frequently opened and closed.
Evaporative cooling is well-suited for various sectors, including technical cooling, textiles, plastics, pharmaceuticals, and commercial spaces, as it provides numerous benefits for Indoor Air Quality (IAQ). These include continuous fresh air circulation, natural air filtration through cooling pads, and the reduction of pollutants, dust, and odors. By adding moisture to the air, it helps control humidity, preventing dryness, dust, and static electricity. Unlike traditional HVAC systems, evaporative cooling doesn’t recirculate air, preventing the buildup of harmful gases. This results in a healthier work environment, enhancing comfort, reducing respiratory irritation, and increasing worker productivity.

Evaporative air conditioning has a wide range of industrial cooling applications
Frequently Asked Questions
- Evaporative air conditioners (coolers) are excellent for health
- They supply 100% fresh, filtered air into your building that is not recirculated, improving Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) of the space, supporting customer and staff well-being
- They remove unhealthy pollution from your indoor environment
- They provide basic moisture that the human body needs
- They remove static electricity; they can assist in reducing the effects of illnesses such as asthma.
A high inlet water temperature does not have a marked effect on the supply temperature of Seeley International’s evaporative air conditioners.
Yes. Outdoor areas have no walls to contain the cool air. These spaces would be impossible to cool using refrigerated air conditioning because this relies on recirculating and reusing air from a sealed area. Evaporative air conditioners (coolers) can easily supply a flow of fresh and cool air to open and semi open areas since the air is exhausted naturally.
In most cases evaporative air conditioners (coolers) marginally increase humidity, keeping in mind that temperature has also dropped significantly. It is the combination of temperature, humidity and airflow that creates human comfort and evaporative air conditioners are used widely around the world because they can create comfortable conditions. For example, 80% humidity and 30°C (86°F) is very uncomfortable, but 80% humidity and 16°C (61°F) is very comfortable. Comfort is also improved by increasing air velocity in hot conditions and evaporative air conditioners create sufficient air movement to minimise the effects of humidity.
Air inside the building collects heat, moisture and impurities and must be exhausted. The evaporative air conditioner (cooler) provides 100% outside air which must be relieved from the building. If the building is sealed, the effectiveness of the cooler(s) will be reduced. Mechanical extraction or even just leaving some doors or windows open helps remove unhealthy air from the indoor environment by supplying 100% fresh, filtered air. For this reason, evaporative air conditioners (coolers) are much healthier than refrigerated air conditioning.
