COOLMAX PTY LTD was formed in 1999 specifically to provide quiet, low running cost, environmentally friendly room evaporative coolers. COOLMAX coolers are manufactured in Adelaide, Australia, the centre of the Australian evaporative cooler industry.
The COOLMAX CM50 has been available since early 2000 and has an exceptional record for reliability.

have a policy of continuous improvement and a commitment to quality.Clive Blanchard, a director of COOLMAX PTY LTD and the designer of the COOLMAX CM50 has worked for over 20 years in the air conditioning industry, including 9 years as a Senior Design Engineer at the worlds largest exporter of evaporative coolers. While there he designed a cooler which quickly became Australia's most popular rooftop cooler. Clive has had a number of papers published on evaporative cooling and air conditioning and also does air conditioning consulting. Three of Clive's evaporative cooling ideas have been patented.
Evaporative cooling can provide 80% saving in energy costs for cooling relative to a refrigerative air conditioner. However ducted evaporative coolers are out of reach of many purchasers, and most other room evaporative coolers are too noisy to become popular. Many people buy split refrigerative units, or room air conditioners instead. COOLMAX was created to fill this market niche. The COOLMAX cooler is less expensive than a split unit, and about the same noise level. This means the COOLMAX is much quieter than a room air conditioner.
In Australia evaporative cooling is suitable in Victoria, Western Australia, South Australia and inland New South Wales and inland Queensland. About 8 million Australians live in these areas.
Clive has recently developed some accurate, easy to use air conditioning calculators to help you get the right air conditioning if evaporative cooling is not suitable for you.
