For 15 years I have ran a huge swamp cooler in my 1,200sq ft garage shop in Southern California, It runs continuous 24/7 from April - mid October. It comes in from the back south wall & the air exits through the 3 large vents on the roof. I don't have any insulation at all & it can be 105 outside & the shop stays in the high 70's, maybe low 80's if it gets hotter but it makes all the difference. I keep the doors shut & the air cools the place off nicely. I don't have any rust on any cast-iron, this is a new one for me. In my office I have a new $3,500 mac 12" from that cooler, the other 5 year old mac has been there since new, no problems but its dry here. HOWEVER we do get 2 weeks during July that the humidity takes over & we cant run the air coolers, It becomes miserable & thats when we turn on the AC, HA. I know its an old thread but hey, I like my air cooler.......
Not sure about the OP in Utah though
