Worldwide many sports are played in the summer heat, whether it‘s
full on competition or pre-season training. The summer heat can cause
heat stress on an athlete's body, which in turn can affect their
preparation for that ‘big event’.
One way to cool down during practice or on the sideline is to have a
shaded cooling station with a portable evaporative cooler. This can
re-energize players by reducing sideline temperature up to an average of
7 Deg C, thus increasing player welfare and maintaining optimum
performance.
Remember, the chill after swimming on a hot, dry day, then getting
out of the water and feeling the wind hitting your wet skin? That’s
evaporative cooling. Evaporative cooling units replicate this naturally
occurring process and can make a hot, uncomfortable environment much
more bearable via the constant flow of refreshingly cool air.
Open areas such as basketball courts, sidelines, dugouts, practice
areas, gyms, arenas, and workout rooms are all perfect places for the
natural cooling of the portable evaporative cooling units.
An added benefit of evaporative cooling is that it works best in the
hottest time of the day. As the temperature outside increases as the
sun climbs, the humidity normally drops. In the early morning, for
example, the temperature may be 20 Deg C, with a relative humidity of
60%. By lunchtime or mid afternoon, when the temperature has gone over
30 Deg C, the humidity may well have dropped to 30% - conditions that
make evaporative cooling work more effectively.
The Port-A-Cool portable evaporative cooler is ideal with no wet
mist, just cool air and it operates on tap water and 220V of
electricity. The 16” unit can operate for up to 8 hours without a hose
connection.
In the USA Port-A-Cool units are used successfully by many NFL teams
and sporting clubs and they have experienced positive effects of placing
evaporative cooling along the field sidelines where heat plays a
negative role on player performance. Port-A-Cool is the official
sideline cooler of a number of college and professional sports teams.
