SUPER COOL!!

We use the Portacool Apex 6500 in our shop and notice on average, a drop of 5-6˚C when running! It does increase the humidity of the shop, but it's way better than the 27˚C the shop sits at during the warmer months!
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is our second portal. We are very satisfied with the modern updates of this new model. I love the Wi-Fi timer. Keep up the good work. I will continue to buy them.

Best investment for the team on hot summer days

Keeps our bays feeling much fresher, water lasts almost the entire day. We fill it once in the am and once midday. We already owned the previous version of this bad boy and the added features of wifi, scheduling, & app controls make it a breeze to maintain. I only wish the water drain port made more sense with a decent grade to allow all the water to escape easily; the bottom of the tank is still flat.

Cooler is very strong and keeps our shop cool. We have had the water pump go bad and the in line circuit breaker, but aupport was quick to solve our issues and get replacement parts sent out.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the Bluetooth to my phone because easy to turn on when I am not home.

Works as it should

The unit has worked without any faults. We are happy with the cooling capacity of this machine. We will probably purchase another unit (either the 6500 or the next size down) this spring for the other side of our shop.

This cooler was way bigger than I planned, however im glad i went with the bigger one. It keeps my shop 10-15° cooler than the outside temp.
