Designed for your convenience
Fresair prides itself on being energy-efficient. Its 12V Air Cooler uses less than 8A/h at full power yet delivers powerful cooling for up to 22 hours through four directional vents. With up to a 40˚F drop in temperature, it can certainly keep you cool without sounding like a jet engine, thanks to its compressor-free design. Unlike other air conditioning units, the Fresair cooler can be powered by battery, eliminating the need for a loud generator or running your engine.

Why You'll Love It
- Energy Efficient
Fresair runs <8A/h at full power (tests read approx 7A/h) which is only slightly more than a simple roof fan. Compared to traditional rooftop AC units you’ll be using approximately 20x less power.
- Powerful Cooling
Temperature drop between ambient temperature and vents can reduce up to -40°F! On average at 85°F ambient temperature, you will see a 20°F+ drop. The hotter the environment the larger the drop.
- Light Weight
Weighing in at only 26lbs you’ll be less top-heavy.
- Low Profile
The 12V Air Cooler has a low sleek profile of 3.7”, streamlined (no wind noise) and it’s sexy as hell. It’s form factor is so low it will even fit underneath roof racks or solar panels.
- Adjustable Ceiling Vents
The internal control panel has four directional air-craft style vents to direct air where you need it. Aim vents towards head and chest for optimal cooling.
- Low Noise
External noise is so low as to run all night with no attention from passers-by or camping neighbors. Very discreet and no compressors making you the target for noise-police.
- Retrofit
The Fresair 12V Air Cooler will install easily into any pre-existing standard 14”x14” opening.
- Sleep Timer
You can now program the timing of glorious cool breezes straight from your remote control or from your control panel.
- Airflow
WARNING: The airflow on full blast will literally blow your hairpiece off. This is nothing like a regular fan, the airflow is intense.
- Eco-Friendly
Running on water and battery power alone or with the help of solar in addition to triple-filtering the air and running clean, Fresair is your green energy solution.
- Runs Dry
State-of-the-art evaporative cooling technology delivers cool air, not moisture. With a fan-only mode, you can also simply keep air moving without the use of water.
- Runs Cool
No heat venting from the unit, runs cool even in direct sunlight, you can even install a rooftop tent above it and maintain comfort for all.
- Runs With Doors Open
Traditional AC is designed to work in a sealed-off environment. Who wants to keep everything shut up tight when the idea is to be out there enjoying everything freedom has to offer? Our system runs even with open doors, creating a cool airflow. At night just crack a window to keep air circulating and fresh.
- Reservoirs
With two reservoir options, an 18L reservoir built for larger capacity water storage or a Mini Reservoir designed for optimal space capacity. At peak usage Fresair will use under 1L of water per hour.
