DIY Evap Air Cooler. This design uses Two 5-Gallon Buckets (stacked high) to make an air cooling "tower". produces powerful breeze and low temps. (drops 80F air to 58-59F). The dual-bucket design allows the unit to hold 5 gallons (for all-day cooling). temp. tests and full build included in the video. *note that it can be AC or DC powered. for DC power - one 12v solar panel (15-20 watt) can power fan (10w) and DC water pump (5-10w)... or just use 12v battery. *be ready for summer... once it's built, all you need is water & sun and you've got cool air! if you like the vid. please rate, subscribe, and share.

    Thanks for sharing - best DIY bucket evap cooler on youtube. Built one based on your design - guaranteed 20 degree drop in temp every time.

    Brilliant!! I was looking for a simple way to cool rabbit hutches during the summer! Continue the stove piping up and thru the hutch up close to the ceiling. Cut gashes out of the straight piping allowing the cool air to escape into each cage of the hutch! This allows rabbits to lay at back of cage under the pipe to cool off!! Ur awesome!! Thank u so much!!

    Thanks for sharing this. I built one because of all the smoke from the fires in Ca. preventing the use of the large house swamp cooler. We move it from room to room as needed. Takes the edge off of the 100 degree weather.

    Great design and video like the others! Was wondering what the recommended sq ft this would be good for though. Would like to make one to compliment my window unit AC and perhaps make it solar like your setup.

    As you said in the description, the two bucket design allows for all day cooling. Additionally, it raises the air so you can point it right at yourself while you sit and (hehe) chill.

    I expect the power grid to go out in Phoenix, this year, the way things are going. I plan on making this ASAP
