New Cool Boss™ Desert Storm Portable Evaporative Air Cooler Chills Large Military and Industrial Facilities

Generates unstoppable force of nearly 18,000 cubic feet per minute of cooled air

Cool Boss™ CB-28HVThe new Cool Boss™ CB-28HV Desert Storm Series high-velocity portable evaporative cooler is built tough to cool even the largest and most demanding workplace environments found on military installations and in industrial facilities.

Theodore, Ala. (April 18, 2024) — The new Cool Boss™ CB-28HV Desert Storm Series high-velocity portable evaporative cooler is built tough to keep soldiers and workers cool whether they’re in the desert or somewhere that just feels like the desert. The most powerful model in the Cool Boss lineup, the CB-28HV is precision-engineered to military standards.

The Desert Storm Series efficiently cools expansive spaces at large government and military installations and industrial warehouses to ensure optimal working conditions for maintenance and operations personnel.

“It can be challenging to maintain focus when working in oppressively hot situations,” says Sean Price, director of sales operations. “In military operations, loss of focus can be deadly. Our new Desert Storm Series evaporative coolers drop the air temperature up to 26 degrees in even huge spaces like aircraft hangars, helping workers be more comfortable, productive, and focused.”

Boasting a high-speed energy-efficient motor paired with a 28-inch diameter 5-blade axial-flow fan, the 220-volt Desert Storm CB-28HV cooler generates nearly 18,000 cubic feet per minute of invigorating, climate-controlled air.

The Desert Storm Series is designed without a drive belt to deliver higher efficiency and smoother operation, including less vibration and noise, reduced maintenance, and longer service life. A variable frequency drive (VFD) controller precisely adjusts the speed of the motor in real time to reduce energy use compared to a direct-in-line motor.

The CB-28HV also features a dedicated touchpad control panel for intuitive control and real-time monitoring of performance metrics. Productivity-enhancing features include a built-in 4,000 lumen adjustable LED floodlight, wireless Bluetooth™ speaker system, and remote control with auto-time shutoff.

Unlike other Cool Boss models that are black, the Desert Storm Series’ antibacterial LLDPE plastic enclosure is tan.

Because Cool Boss air coolers are not air conditioners, they don’t require expensive high‐amp compressor motors, environmentally toxic chemicals, refrigerants, or permanent installation.
