the one I had years ago, the fan was direct drive, NO BELT
it did hold several gallons of water, and was suggested to use only while parked
it had a float valve in it, and could be connected to the RV water system
using small clear tubing on the exterior of the RV , up to roof
turn on pump, fill evap cooler, turn off pump, refill as needed
drain before moving
the filter would get dirty from the dust drawn in, being filtered and the foam filter was wet, like the mat in a residential evap unit
fan pulled about 4 amps at 12v, 48~60w vs 1400w for 120v roof A/C
