[quote=enron_by_the_sea]Has anyone used Evaporative coolers ( swamp coolers?) in San Diego? Our new place does not have AC. Should I consider it? San Diego should be pretty dry for it to work.[/quote]
We had one in a house I lived in up in L.A. It was a much older unit, but it worked. San Diego tends to be much more humid, though, so it might not work as well. Probably depends on where you are in SD County. Better if it’s in a very dry area like the eastern part of SD County.
