Application

Outdoor cooling is considered a luxury to some. In hot environments, keeping workers exposed to the heat safe is paramount. It also reduces liabilities on the job.  As workers endure warm working conditions, the failure to hydrate can quickly lead to dehydration. Aside from the health risks this poses for workers, dehydrated workers are also at greater risk on the job due to delayed reaction time.  Evaporative cooling from Portacool, as well as responsible hydration practices, can help reduce liabilities in warm working conditions by keeping the shop cool and comfortable to ensure productivity stays on track.

Origin

Portacool has been providing cooling comfort from the company's manufacturing facility in Center, Texas, for more than 25 years. The company was looking for ways to improve and update its offerings, so it developed a line of varying sizes and capacities in portable evaporative coolers to meet a variety of shop needs with the Jetstream series. The Jetstream 270 is the largest in the line-up of four.

Selling points

Overall, a portable evaporative cooler like the Portacool Jetstream 270 provides a cost-effective, cost-efficient cooling solution. You can keep productivity up in the hottest of temperatures and protect workers from heat-stress.
Portable evaporative coolers use water to naturally cool spaces.  Unlike fans that blow stagnant hot air, these products actually use the ambient air and the water to cool the space.  Unlike a mister - you will not get wet.  The water aids the evaporative process, but it is not blown onto the person.  Additionally, it should be noted that these products are not air conditioners. No compressor or refrigerants are used.
Portacool has been around for more than 25 years. While the technology has improved greatly, our values and goals have stayed the same — to provide economical, effective cooling where ever needed. Today’s evaporative coolers are among the most energy-efficient cooling methods available thanks to the advances in technology, design and material.
