Neither

The other adjustment is to close windows (unlike AC, swamp coolers work best in rooms with open windows and you can adjust temperatures in different parts of a house/building by adjusting which windows are open) Jay O'Connor "Going places unmapped to do things unplanned to people unsuspecting"

Actually, learning how they work, and why regular A/C didn't out there, was how I learned about A/C. This is my sig. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

But where you can use them - lots less $/hr and first cost. (Though I was surprised at what a recent mobile-home replacement cooler cost, considering how utterly simple is a box with a motor and a squirrel-cage blower) Kinda like noting how near diesel fuel costs now VS gasoline -- given the much less cheaper processing. Must all be taxes. Of course too: they stink. OK - hike the price. A.
