Why is the Convair Mastercool™ Portable Cooler Better?
For evaporative coolers to work, they need three critical elements:
- filter media (cooling pads),
- fan system, and
- water distribution system
Because of its advanced design features, the Convair Mastercool™ portable cooler has cleverly combined these components to maximise the cooling effect that it delivers. Some other evaporative cooler brands provide no cooling at all – they just move air around, like a fan.
Large water tank for overnight operation
3 fan speeds
plus cooling control
Compare Portable Evaporative Cooler Brands & Models
Harness The Power of the Cold Hard Facts
Portable evaporative cooler models of competitors have been tested against the Convair Mastercool™ in the NATA approved Meridian Laboratory, demonstrating the superior cooling performance. This compares the cooling capacity of different models available in Australia, for consumers to make informed decisions for their home comfort, using actual, deliverable kilowatts of cooling capacity.

Notes:
- All results were corrected to Standard Air (1.2kg/m3) where applicable.
- All units were tested at 230V and 50Hz.
- Negative cooling capacity results indicate the leaving air Dry Bulb Temperature did not reduce below 27.4oC and no discernable cooling effect would be produced.

What to look for when purchasing a Portable Evaporative Cooler:
Filter Media (pads) | Fan System | Water Distribution System | |
What to look for | Air must pass evenly through a moistened pad. Look for a design that provides a consistently thick pad for the air to pass through. | Lots of air means lots of cooling. Look for a big fan that provides even distribution of air through the filter media (pad). | The water distribution system mustbe capable of completely saturatingthe filter media (pads). Look for a system that doesn’t leave any dry or open sections of the pad |
Convair Mastercool | Convair Mastercool uses Aspen cooling pads. These pads force all the air to come in contact with evaporating water, so you get the maximum cooling effect. | Convair has an advanced fan that is designed to deliver maximum airflow with minimum noise. This type of fan forces air to pass through the saturated filter pad in far greater volume than others can. | Convair uses a patented water distribution system that ensures the filter media stays totally saturated. This unique channel design resists clogging and delivers a steady, even water distribution at all times. |

Frequently Asked Questions
A portable evaporative cooler cools the air using the natural process of evaporation; and can be moved from room to room, or even to an outdoor area.
Based on the principles of evaporation, air is pumped through water-infused cooling pads. As the air is pushed through the cooling pads, the water evaporates and the heat in the air is absorbed, which lowers the air temperature. A fan then pushes the cool air out into the room.
- Open window or door.
- Add water to the maximum line, plug the cooler into a standard power outlet, and switch on.
- Adjust the water flow and fan speed to your comfort level and enjoy!
- For optimum performance, place the back of the cooler next to a window or door opened 15cm. Open a window of door opposite the cooler to create a cross air flow.
Portable evaporative coolers are energy-efficient, cost-effective and eco-friendly; plus they are easy to setup and use.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the water reservoir, replacing cooling pads when they become worn, and cleaning or replacing the water pump and filter as needed.
With Aspen pads, you should expect to change these every 3 or 4 years. This can vary with water quality, frequency of operation and local conditions.
Proper maintenance ensures optimal performance. Failure to replace filter pads when they are past their useful life may result in reduced efficiency/performance of the portable evaporative cooler.
No. Portable evaporative coolers are known to be quieter than traditional air conditioning units. They operate with a low hum, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use without causing excessive noise.
A portable evaporative cooler is most effective in well-ventilated areas with open windows or doors. The unit relies on fresh air to work properly.
Portable evaporative coolers may indirectly reduce odours in your home; however, they do not have the capability to directly remove or eliminate strong or persistent odours.
It is important to place the unit on a stable service to prevent tipping, keep electrical cords away from water. Look at your manual for more safety guidelines.
