Hey, anyone in CO use swamp coolers for house cooling? I hear mixed results, but do see them heavily offered at places like Lowes and Big R. Trying to see if they're worth it. I fully understand that AC is superior, but a whole house AC unit is financially out of my range right now, and the portable units we have fried an outlet last year from overuse.

My plan is in a year or two to look into install of a rooftop or whole house unit if this experiment works. Just don't have any experience with them, outside of a few use cases where they were not being used the way they should be.
