Something to add is that you need good ventilation in and out of the house or room that you're using the cooler in. Place it at the window, draw air from outside, push the cooled air into the room, leave a door or an opposing window open so that the humid air can exit.

Or vice versa, cooler in a doorway, window open. Just make sure you have a flow through ventilation through the area.

If you use one in a closed room you'll rapidly end up with a very humid room and no cooling effect.

I was using it in a closed room but after keeping it near the door and also opening a window it made a huge difference. Thank you so much
