I called this a humidifier because that is what it is called on the inventory. However, it is also known as an evaporative cooler, which I think in the USA is known as a "swamp cooler".
There is hole through which you pour water. There is a tray in which you put ice. You connect it to electricity and blow air over the ice and water and the place cools down and the air becomes more moist.
More pleasant all round. I might also get a pedestal fan just in case.
