Seems like a humidifier evaporative cooler to me… These won’t lower the temperature in the growroom.
There is no shortcut. If you need to lower the temperature, just use properly sized ventilation system. (preferably dual unit) Air condition could work, but the costs are high.

It’s an air cooler I got something similar.
I was looking for an air conditioner and this Spanish company advertised an air cooler as an air conditioner.
When I clarified it was not an air conditioner I cancelled.
There was a cyber attack at the courier and it got sent after I had cancelled it.
They were kind enough to let me keep for nothing.
The main problem with air cooler is it creates humidity an air con will lower humidity and temps an air cooler will make humidity go up. So not advised for flowering but maybe fine for veg?

It is an evaporative cooler. They can be quite efficient if you live in an arid climate. I have a giant one on my roof to cool my home in the high desert.

I helped a guy put a wet wall in a large commercial greenhouse. We basically turned the whole intake wall into a swamp cooler. I wasn’t sure about the idea the first place. Turns out he ended up with quite a bit of bud rot. We are in a humid are anyways which negates the value of a swamp cooler anyhow. He stopped using it within a month.
Here is my question. I can see venting a grow tent into a house, and it keeping your Temps appropriate. You are still running an air conditioner in a roundabout way. What about if you want a growroom or growtent in a shed or something like that? In the summer ventilation will only do so much with outside hot air. What would you do in this situation? Just do the best you can?

Are you asking me? I run an AC in my grow room, but cool the house with the evaporative cooler. Even with the evaporative cooler running my humidity is only around 30% RH.

I was asking anyone that would answer. We are wanting to set up a shed, and I’m trying to figure out the best way to do it.
Try to keep the shed under a tree or somewhere shaded. Full exposure to sun + lights would turn that thing into a sweat lodge/hotbox.
It is already built, but the property has plenty of trees. We should be in pretty good shape on that aspect.
I’m sorry fellas, I neglected the site for a couple days.
LemonadeJoe. I thought it was a humidifier as well. I Ordered a Infinity T4 off of Amazon and the the thermostat was missing. There was only one left for sale and it was Renewed. I guess someone bought it and returned it. Kept the thermostat for them selves. Pain in my a$$. That should have done the trick to bring down the temp in my tent. Gotta order another one. I will never buy a renewed item again.
