Store It Cold - Home of the CoolBot!
Especially For Farmers and Florists!
** THOUSANDS SOLD SINCE 2006 **
Keep your flowers and farm produce cool and fresh
For less money than a single repair bill on a normal walk-in cooler compressor while saving 30% or more in electricity!
The CoolBot turns any brand of off-the-shelf, window-type air conditioning unit (purchased separately) into a turbo-charged cooling machine. With it, you can transform a highly-insulated room into a walk-in cooler, keeping your vegetables fresh and thermostatically controlled cool down to 32° F!
CoolBot will not only save you on installation and repair costs, it will also help you save electricity, reducing your operating costs when combined with new Energy Star air conditioning units engineered to much stricter environmental standards than standard walk-in cooler compressors. CoolBot uses new (patent-pending) technology that just became available in 2006.
Order now and get a free guide to keeping your vegetables fresh, containing reference data on the best temperatures to keep vegetables at for maximum quality.
Performance varies based on the size of your room and the size of the A/C unit you have. As a guide: Here in Southern New York, a $300 Home Depot 18,000 BTU window A/C unit kept produce in a 7' x 12' insulated room at the 38° F we set it to during the summer with plenty of cooling power to spare.
Cool CoolBot News!
May 2010 Just in time for the rush of summer farm orders, we're now shipping the improved 5th generation of CoolBot hardware (starting from the first commercial units that went out in 2006 - there were dozens more before that!). Besides internal programming improvements, we now use full epoxy coating on all sensors and include internal surge protection (you should still use an external surge protector that can protect you against more significant lightning strikes just as you would with any computer equipment). We've also implimented a (horrible) version of "Pong" into the CoolBot. Yeah... we're seriously that geeky! Although we've never had any trouble with water getting into the CoolBot body itself (even when they are regularly sprayed down) every once in a while we would get a call about a waterlogged sensor. The epoxy should be a permanent fix for that.
April 2010 - There are now three demonstration CoolBots operating successfully in different parts of India with full monitoring on energy use, temperature, relative humidity and quality of the stored product. So far everything is working well
even as temperatures in Delhi hit 113 degrees F! (Actually it should be noted that the Delhi unit was set to 35 def F (2 C) but the unit is holding steady at 37 (3 C) - it just can't get any colder). I think it's because the cooler is in direct Indian sun (no shade!) and there are some 3 tons of stored product in there. The A/C unit is sized "just right" to our specs (which didn't take India into account). There is also a small amount of visible daylight around the A/C unit. ...I'm still calling this a success.
FEB 2010 - THANK YOU to a large multinational corporation for funding demonstration Coolers for poor farmers in India and Thailand using CoolBots! The first of five coolers they've built is BEAUTIFUL and now housing 3 tonnes of Potatoes! More to follow with pics in the next few weeks! This is a terrific use of CoolBots and we're so happy to be a part of the project!
JAN 2010 - We are so proud to have been included in a new USAID project funding demonstrations of CoolBots for small farmers in India, Uganda and Honduras!!! The project will use CoolBots operating coolers built out of local materials and will explore the use of solar panels. We look forward to supporting this project any way we can and will provide regular updates and pictures once the project actually starts up!!
