A swamp cooler, also known as evaporative cooler, is a machine used to cool the air. To cool the air the swamp cooler uses a simple technique that is the evaporation of water. There is a basic difference in the cooling process by the evaporating process & the air conditioning process.

Cooling by the evaporative process uses evaporation of water but in case of air conditioning process it uses vapor compression. Swamp pads are used in swamp coolers. There are a lot of factors related with the swamp pads. There are different types of swamp cooler pads. The quality of all the swamp cooler pads are not the same & their maintenance is also different from each other. The swamp cooler pads that are mostly used are the aspen pads.
