Swamp coolers, or evaporative coolers, are an energy-efficient and affordable cooling option for hot, dry climates like New Mexico. They cool air by passing it through moist pads, adding a bit of humidity while using far less electricity than traditional air conditioning. With proper maintenance, swamp coolers can provide reliable cooling for 10–12 years and remain a cost-effective alternative for many homes.
