Coolbot…..anybody use one?

Coolbot…..anybody use one? - 10/04/21 02:46 AM

Just curious if anyone here has used the coolbot cooler system. The compressor has gone out on my deer cooler and by all accounts this would be a good replacement for my cooling system. Would love to hear from someone that has used it. Thanks.

I use one, Make sure your A/C unit is big enough. Not all A/C manufactures are compatible with the unit. Mine works great and keeps my cooler at 34 degrees regardless of out side temp.

There were two good threads on this subject a little over a year ago:

Coolbot

And a follow up review by the OP:

We have one at work, we use it to keep strawberries, greens, turnips ect. cold. Not exactly sure how it works but it sure keeps stuff cold.

I have one in a 31x13 well insulated shop. It works pretty well. I just got a bigger AC unit but have not hooked it up yet. It was 88 degrees here yesterday and the warmest I saw in the shop was 48 degrees. Having an extra box fan blowing will make a big difference when cooling meat. Gotta keep that air moving.

They get the job done. Had one for a few years now. Currently we keep a 10 x 20 "cold room" between 35-45 degrees for a few months every spring to keep our nursery stock in hibernation mode. Personally I feel like the control units are over priced, but in todays world not a lot of things are a bargain.

I have a 6x8 walk in cooler that is outside under a shed. Humidity is very high. It has a true commercial compressor with dual fans inside that run 24/7. It has no problem staying at 37 degrees and runs very little. It has gotten old and I have to spend about $400-500 every few years to add Freon etc. was thinking about the coolbot option with a new AC unit instead. I only need it 3 1/2 months out of the year. Looks like the AC and coolbot would be over $1,000. The cool part would be having wifi so I could monitor it remotely . My land is 75 miles from my home.

10-4 was just curious. Was thinking of getting one but I would probably run it 24/7 for hanging meat. Might be cheaper for me to just process everything and freeze.

I am actually thinking of using one for our show steers. They've got good reviews from the show animal circuit as well. I was gonna use a 25,000 BTU A/C for a 12x16' room.

What do you thin the set up cost will run including setting up the room? Got a mess of grandkids hitting age to start showing steers

If anyone is interested, I have a compressor with a 5 fan evaporator for sale. Will easily cool 400 square to 34 degrees. Pm if interested. Located in western Colorado.

Havent penciled much out yet. Hopefully $3000? I'll have a grand in AC and coolbot. Gonna build a 2x6 room that can be taken down, spray foam insulation.

Used one last year at a friends place. It worked great. Had about a 6' x 8' cooler he made.
