Big Ass Fans Cool-Space 500 Evaporative Cooler
Industrial Cooling Power That Keeps Your Team Safe and Productive
When extreme heat threatens productivity and worker safety, the Cool-Space 500 from Big Ass Fans delivers fast, effective relief. Engineered for high-performance cooling in industrial, commercial, and large open spaces, this evaporative cooler uses advanced direct-drive fan technology and a high-capacity water reservoir to reduce air temperatures by up to 33 °F (18 °C)—without the high cost of air conditioning.
Advanced Evaporative Cooling with Thick, Durable Media
The Cool-Space 500 sets the industry standard with its thick, resin-coated evaporative media, which absorbs and evaporates more heat than thinner, less effective alternatives. Treated to resist mold, algae, and buildup, this long-lasting cooling media withstands regular cleaning while maintaining peak performance—even in demanding environments.
Portable and Self-Contained for Flexible Cooling
Whether connected to a standard garden hose or used as a stand-alone unit, the Cool-Space 500 offers unmatched portability. Its large internal water reservoir ensures hours of continuous operation without an external water source—ideal for spot cooling in warehouses, factories, automotive bays, and more.
Smart Controls for Safe, Hands-Free Operation
The Cool-Space 500 comes equipped with user-friendly, variable-speed controls and an intuitive backlit LCD panel. With a premium remote, occupancy sensor for automatic activation, and an Auto-Dry mode to extend the life of the media, this cooler is built for both convenience and long-term reliability.
Additional safety and usability features include:
- Locking swivel casters for easy mobility
- Automatic low-water shutoff
- Integrated drain plug
