    A modern home ACs can only cool about 20f below the outside temperature. 50c to 35c is 27 degrees so that’s pretty damn good for a fancy unpowered swamp cooler

      ok, but the cost of building a quanat is still pretty high and is not trivial to achieve.

      Can’t have water flowing everywhere in a country for this to work.
