I'm building a cooler and almost completed.  I am getting a home-bath exaust fan for a fresh air type system.  Where would be the best place and how offen to set a timer on this.  My room is 15' by 11'.  15' being the front where calves wil be tied.  The front 4 feet on my frount wall is soild cement.  on all other 3 walls the botom 2 feet is cement. All help is apprecieted

I would put Foster beer in bottom covered by ice. A layer of Modella especial more ice. Sorry....I'm just a smart elect.

I used the same system for fresh air in my cooler.  These pictures show the location of my outlet and inlet, they are in the rear of the room on opposing walls.  I usually run it for 30-45 seconds every three minutes, usiing a cycle timer.

It sounds like you've got the right idea. Some coolers don't even need an AC. Ours is built into a hill and stays about 70 degrees with fans. And that's with a Kansas summer! I would test how it feels inside on a hot day before I put any sort of AC inside. And also a mister often does just as good a job as an a AC.
