Hey folks! Happy Saturday!
Today I’d like to have a chat a little bit about the The Luma Comfort EC45S Tower Evaporative Cooler. This thing pretty much rocks. If you know me, you know I hate heat. Like, hate it. When I get over-heated I become a giant baby – it’s brought me to tears before, just ask my hubby. But as much as I love staying cool, I cringe when I open our electric bill each month and see how much our window air units are costing us.
That’s why there are inventors out there who come up with genius ideas like this evaporative cooler. It’s super lightweight so you can move it all around your house – and it uses the same amount of electricity as a household lightbulb! Think about that for a second – how crazy is that?! Right now we live in a house window units and those bad boys are SO expensive to run. We have one in Wyatt’s room, one in our room, and one downstairs. Sometimes they’re all three running at the same time! It’s nice to find an alternative that will give our wallets a much-needed break!
The evaporative cooler is nice because we could use it instead of running the air and still keep cool. Note that if you live in an area with super-high humidity this will only work as more of a fan. This unit was designed to help out with dryer climates (hello Phoenix friends!). There are a ton of reviews online saying if you live in a dry climate, you need one of these babies. And – if you’re not sold yet just check out the design. I love how slender it is, perfect for tucking it in a corner (as shown below), the design doesn’t distract from the decor either (another bonus!).
This baby distributes cool air and is so inexpensive to run – especially when compared to room air conditioners. When I first heard of these I couldn’t wrap my head around how they worked. After some research I discovered that it cools the air using evaporated water – no harsh chemicals needed. This little guy is completely eco-friendly too, which I love! You can even customize the air cooler’s output with three different options!
What do you think – could you use one of these?
Check out the youtube video from Luma Comfort here for more info!
Oh my gosh, I need one of these for next year when we move back up to Alaska! They don’t have AC because it’s a waste of money for only like the month or two you’d need it but it still gets REALLLLLYYYYYY hot up there! So going to look into one of these!
You totally should! And wait – you’re moving to Alaska?! Can I come visit! It’s on my bucket list! 🙂
Oh this looks neat! I bet this does work amazingly in dry climates. Unfortunately I live in the Deep South so this would work here. Window units sound rough so I’m glad you have this!
Oh, yeah! Can’t wait to move into a place where there is central air! LOL
Sounds like an amazing product. It gets really hot here too!
Yes! You need one of these lady 😉
I agree with you. I absolutely hate the heat. It was a scorching 95 degrees yesterday. I can definitely use one of these. I love the design and it’s great that it doesn’t use much electricity.
Oh my goodness 95?! SO hot!! Luckily it doesn’t reach that high here except on the super-rare occasion! I can’t even imagine!
I would love one of these for my bedroom! My electricity bill in the summer is just ridiculous and having something that only use as much as a lightbulb is definitely for me. Thanks for the review. Will have to check them out.
You’re welcome! I still can’t get over how little electricity this uses – I mean, the same as a light bulb?! How crazy is that?
That’s so cool it’s that eco-friendly. I would LOVE to have this in my bedroom. My tower fan just gave out unfortunately. Like literally, a day ago haha. I used it all through college because our dorms didn’t have AC (thanks super eco-friendly college–NOT!) and finally the other day it just said, “I’ve had it.” It’s imperative that I’m cool at all times because if I get too hot, I can get really sick. I’m talking migraines, seizures, etc. I’m really going to have to look into this! Thanks for the review.
Well, here in NY (near nyc) it is not only hot hot hot (remember the song-Hot tome Summer in the city-back of my neck gettin dirty and gritty)-but also humid-very humid. So I guess this unit won’t work for me. I am not using my AC to save money but did just buy a bigger fan (today as a matter of fact!)
What a great way to stay cool and it sounds really efficient.
This sounds amazing! I’ll be watching for the day they come out with a model for higher humidity climates; our central air conditioning costs a small fortune!
This looks awesome! Our AC died a couple weeks ago and we just bought a window unit to get by until it gets fixed. This looks like a great option for upstairs in the boys room.
Ohhh my hubs needs one of these in our room for when I’m gone! Thanks for sharing!
