Key Features & Benefits
High Cooling Efficiency: Exceptional cooling rates are achieved due to the design, manufacturing, and materials used in our CELdek pads, making them perfect for energy-efficient cooling solutions.
High Face Velocity: The shallower angle of our pads' unequal flute design allows high-velocity air to travel through the pad without water droplet carryover, supporting high-velocity fans and industrial applications.
Self-Cleaning Design: The steeper angle of PolarCool unequal flute design flushes dirt and debris from the surface of the pad. This cleaning action directs water toward the air entering face of the pad where it is needed most.
Low Pressure Drop: The shallow angle of PolarCool unequal flute design allows high-velocity air to travel through the pad without significant resistance or water droplet carryover, ensuring optimal performance.
Simple to Maintain: In most cases, routine maintenance can be performed while systems are still operating. When properly maintained, PolarCool CELdek pads will provide many years of highly efficient cooling and humidification.
Additional Benefits:
Maximum cooling and humidification
Less costly to operate
Self-cleaning flute design
Specially treated, algae-resistant substrate
Routine maintenance can be performed while the system is operating
Engineered to resist deterioration
Optional MI-T-edg edge protection for longer life
MI-T-edg Protection
MI-T-edg Protection is a tough and resilient optional edge treatment applied to the air entering face of the CELdek pad.
It has been formulated to withstand repeated cleaning without damaging the pad.
MI-T-edg is a nonporous and quick-drying edge treatment that prevents algae and minerals from anchoring themselves into the substrate of the pad, so they fall off when dried.
It offers protection to the CELdek pads from the damaging effects of severe weather and long-term exposure to UV light.
MI-T-edg protective edge coating extends the life of the pad over that of non-treated pads.
MI-T-edg is the strongest, most weather-resistant edge coating available and is the only edge coating with patented algae resistance.
GREENGUARD Gold Certification
These pads are GREENGUARD Gold certified, meeting strict health-based criteria for low chemical emissions and reduced VOC levels.
This certification ensures the pads are safe for sensitive environments like schools, healthcare facilities, and other indoor air quality-focused spaces.
All certified products undergo rigorous manufacturing process review and routine testing to minimize impact on indoor environments, making them an excellent choice for indoor air quality products.
Why Choose PolarCool?
This Pad Over time, evaporative cooling pads harden as a result of minerals and debris left behind by water. New pads hold more water, increasing the evaporative effect and cooling power. This single replacement pad is ideal for spot replacements, ensuring your best portable evaporative cooler for summer, warehouse cooling systems, and outdoor evaporative cooling solutions maintain optimal performance without the cost of replacing all pads.

Evaporative Cooler Fan FAQs
Have a PolarCool question? We are always here to help! See our complete List of FAQs
Why choose PolarCool for my facility?
Lower operational costs than compressor-based AC
Portable and scalable cooling options
Easy installation — no ducting or refrigerants
Made for continuous-duty operation in demanding environments
Proudly made and supported in the USA
How much area can a PolarCool unit cool?
Coverage depends on the model’s CFM rating, airflow direction, and ventilation. PolarCool units are ideal for spot cooling, zone cooling, or air circulation across large industrial areas
Can evaporative coolers replace traditional air conditioning?
Yes, in many industrial and commercial environments. They can replace or supplement AC systems in large, open, or high-bay facilities where traditional AC systems are impractical or costly
What is the expected temperature drop?
Typical results vary with temperature and humidity:
Hot & Dry (100°F / 20% RH): ~23°F drop
Warm & Dry (80°F / 20% RH): ~17°F drop
Hot & Humid (95°F / 50% RH): ~13°F drop
Even in humid conditions, you can expect 10°F–13°F cooling, ideal for manufacturing floors and equipment zones
What power source do I need?
Most PolarCool models run on a standard 115V outlet. Larger (48” models) industrial units may require a dedicated circuit; refer to your product’s specification sheet for amperage and voltage details.
How much noise does a PolarCool fan make?
PolarCool fans operate at relatively low noise levels for their high output, typically ranging from 53 to 68 decibels, comparable to a busy office environment. The units are designed for, and often used in, commercial or large workshop settings where the noise is generally not considered disruptive.
Can evaporative coolers replace traditional air conditioning?
Yes, in many industrial and commercial environments. They can replace or supplement AC systems in large, open, or high-bay facilities where traditional AC systems are impractical or costly
Is assembly required?
Minimal. Units are ready to use out of the box. Remove shipping tape from the float valve before operation
Do PolarCools units need ventilation?
Yes —fresh air circulation is critical for peak performance. Operate units with doors, vents, or bay openings available to prevent humidity buildup.
Can I use the cooler outdoors or in partially open spaces?
Absolutely. PolarCool units excel in semi-open or open-air facilities, such as loading bays, outdoor service areas, and athletic training spaces
Do evaporative coolers work in humid environments?
Yes. PolarCool systems use advanced CELdex™ cooling media that still deliver measurable cooling even in humid regions. Many of our clients report significant comfort gains in Gulf Coast and Southern U.S. climates
