I have no confidence that the Glacier Pool Cooler will work - so unless I hear otherwise, I'm taking that option off the table.
If I am not mistaken the Glacier coolers are evaporative. They probably work very well in Arizona, where the company is located, with their very low humidity. Evaporative cooling is used in place of air conditioning effectively in such climates, but will not do much in Florida.
To give you an example, misters work very well to cool you off in dry climates and the mist quickly disappears and leaves you dry but in Florida all misters do is get you wet (as anyone who has ever visited Disneyworld in August can attest to!)
