Workplace IAQ Benefits
Evaporative cooling enhances Indoor Air Quality in industrial environments in several ways:
- Fresh Air Circulation: It constantly brings in fresh air from outside, reducing stagnant, stale air indoors.
- Natural Air Filtration: The cooling pads filter out dust, pollen, and other contaminants as air passes through, ensuring cleaner air.
- Humidity Control: By adding moisture to the air, it prevents dryness, reducing dust and static electricity in the workspace.
- Pollutant Dilution: Fresh air helps dilute indoor pollutants, fumes, and odors generated by industrial processes.
- No Recirculation: Unlike traditional HVAC systems, it doesn’t recirculate air, which helps prevent the buildup of harmful gases or contaminants.
- Healthier Work Environment: Cleaner, cooler, and properly humidified air reduces respiratory irritation and promotes worker comfort and productivity.
This makes evaporative cooling an excellent choice for industries where air quality is critical, like manufacturing, warehousing, and food processing.

Success stories
DeWALT (Stanley Black & Decker) evaporative cooling installation
The installation of 44 Breezair units at DeWALT’s production plant improved working conditions by lowering temperatures and enhancing Indoor Air Quality. With indoor temperatures maintained at 27°C in summer, energy efficiency and sustainability objectives they originally set were perfectly met.
Huhtamaki-UAE, a global packaging leader, Climate Wizard Indirect Evaporative Air Coolers implemented in its UAE facilities using.
Initially installed at the Jebel Ali plant to pre-cool air for Air Handling Units (AHUs), these systems addressed the high power consumption caused by extreme summer temperatures exceeding 50°C and the plant’s demanding air treatment process.
To mitigate concerns about water usage, condensation from the AHUs is collected and reused to operate the Climate Wizards, making the installation nearly water-neutral. This innovative approach not only reduces energy consumption and costs but also ensures cleaner operation with minimal maintenance.
Evaporative Cooling Applications
Evaporative air conditioning has a wide range of cooling applications
Evaporative cooling has a wide range of industrial cooling applications, excelling at efficiently cooling large or semi open spaces. Providing superior indoor air quality for building occupants, evaporative air conditioning unit supplies 100% continuous, fresh, filtered outside air, improving ventilation rates, and lowering CO2 and VOC levels.
Not only this system is perfect for comfort cooling, but also for technical cooling: it refers to the process of using specialized systems to regulate and remove heat from machinery or equipment to ensure optimal performance and prevent overheating.

Industrial air conditioning unit 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.
