Summer Boosts Consumer Demand for Portacool™ Portable Evaporative Coolers

Portacool, LLC, the Texas-based global leader in evaporative cooling solutions, continues to experience a boost in the sale and leasing of its evaporative coolers this summer in the UAE according to sales figures from a local retailer. In 2014, Q2 sales figures represented 65% of total sales compared to 5% in Q1 indicating a spike in sales as the weather heats up. Portacool, LLC offers a variety of portable evaporative products ideal for residential applications to cool pool areas, decks and patios for garden parties, barbeques and other outdoor special occasions.

 

Portacool™ evaporative coolers are sold via distributors and retailers across the UAE and in 56 countries globally. According to consumer sales and rental numbers of a retailer in Dubai, Portacool™ products have resulted in an increase of approximately 11.75% each year for the past three years. The spike in sales figures in Q2 is reflective of the extreme summer climate in which the environmentally friendly and energy efficient evaporative coolers are ideal for families wishing to enjoy being outside whilst staying cool and comfortable.

 

“When we look at the results from our home improvement retailer, the smaller products were the best sellers representing 63% of products sold and rented. These are perfect for the home, garden or for pool side use and shows the demand in home applications,” said Bob Mangiaforte, Vice President, Sales, Portacool, LLC.

 

“With the Holy month of Ramadan well underway, both observing and non-observing residents are likely to enjoy more family time with the shortened working hours. Therefore, evaporative cooling serves as an effective and efficient way to continue enjoying the outdoors,” continued Bob.

 

Portacool, LLC has been designing and manufacturing portable evaporative coolers and accessories since 1990. These evaporative coolers are especially suited for this region, and its long summer months, with the ability to cool areas where traditional air conditioning is impractical or cost prohibitive. Headquartered in Center, Texas, USA, Portacool produces a range of portable evaporative coolers that cool areas from 45-360 m2.
