With the energy consumption of a fan, and the cooling power of an air conditioner, Evaporative Coolers are our best bet for staying cool in the warm summers without racking up an enormous electricity bill. These coolers use water (the colder the better) or even ice to cool the air around us. The air is suspended with tiny particles of water, that help bring down the temperature by as much as 20°F, while consuming a mere 10% of the energy an air conditioner would.
The Quilo’s second iteration was designed to do much more than just cooling. Quilo’s evaporative cooling technology also works as a humidifier, allowing the appliance to be used in the summers as well as the winters. In the summers, the water particles bring the temperature down, while in the winter, the water particles humidify the air, eliminating winter dryness. The second edition of the Quilo also packs a HEPA filter into its tall frame, not only cooling/humidifying the air around it, but purifying it too. Designed to filter out pollutants, allergens, and even bacteria and other germs, Quilo 2.0 doesn’t just make air temperature comfortable, but air quality better too.
Made as a better, more efficient, quieter, and smarter version of its first iteration, the Quilo 2.0 comes in the same shape, size, and format, but packs a better brushless motor that works efficiently without the noise. The water reservoir at the bottom needs to be topped off every few days, as the Quilo draws water from it, suspending fine particles into the purified air it pushes out. The Quilo 2.0 even packs Amazon Alexa integration, allowing you to control the evaporative cooler via voice commands.
Designed much like the original Quilo, the Quilo 2.0 comes in a standing format, offering directional air that you can point at any subject. With wheels at its base, the Quilo 2.0 can also be wheeled to any room, and positioned practically anywhere, allowing you to efficiently use its energy-efficient cooling/purifying/humidifying technology anywhere and anytime!

Breathe Easy with Smart Home Connectivity
You’re downstairs and want your bedroom cool for bedtime? Quilo 2.0 is smart too! Send a command to Alexa and the unit will stir into action and activate.
True HEPA Air Filter with Auto-Sensor
The Quilo 2.0 is equipped with two interchangeable cartridges that instantly transform the fan from a cooler or humidifier into a three-stage, true HEPA air purifier. Snap in the HEPA insert and the patent-pending auto sensor activates the air purifier.
Whisper Quiet & Energy Efficient with a Brushless DC Motor
Unlike appliances which are powered through alternating current (AC) and are noisy and energy consuming, the Quilo 2.0 is powered by patent-pending, direct current (DC) motor, and is whisper quiet and energy efficient.
How Does It work?
The Quilo 2.0 is a low-energy, high-impact, tower fan with four unique functions. It cools, purifies, humidifies and, of course, fans too.
Evaporative Air Cooler Tackles Summer’s Heat
Keep cool and save energy! That’s the name of the game when it comes to swamp cooling. Consuming only 36 watts of power, evaporative air cooling is an energy-efficient alternative for summer cooling.
What is Evaporative Air Cooling?
Evaporative cooling reduces heat through the natural process of evaporation. The Quilo 2.0’s pump circulates water through a honeycomb cooling pad. As the fan draws air through the drenched pad, the warm air passing through the unit becomes refreshingly cool with a hint of moistness.
Add Ice for Added Cooling Punch
Pack ice into the ice compartment to make the circulating water frigidly cold. The air blowing into your room will be chillingly cool.
3-Filter Air Purifier Traps Microscopic Allergens
Dust mites, pet odors, pollen spores, bacteria and airborne allergens are blocked from your personal spaces with Quilo 2.0’s three-stage air filtration.
1st Stage: Active Carbon Pre-Filter
The active carbon filter absorbs odors, VOCs and pollutants. Bigger particles, such as pet hair, are trapped behind the carbon barrier.
2nd Stage: True HEPA Filter
Did you know that a micron is one-millionth of a meter?! A true HEPA filter captures particles that are at least 0.3 microns. That includes 99.97% of allergen-causing particles, including dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores and other harmful particulates inside its ultra-fine mesh.
3rd Stage: Ionizer
The ionizer adds a negative charge to floating dust or smoke particles, causing them to become static and stick to the walls instead of floating in mid-air. Ever rubbed a balloon at a kids party and made it stick to the wall? That’s our type of magic.
Humidifier for Extra Comfort
Dry skin? Irritated sinus? Do cold winters drain your home of vitality? Infuse moisture into your dry air through the Quilo 2.0’s humidifier setting. Add water into the water drawer, deep breathe and you’re set to relax.
