hi there this is just a quick video to show you how to make what's called as zeer
pot fridge or a flower pot fridge looking good I put the little one-inch
clay pots next to these to show how big these are. the first thing you want to do
here let's plug the hole on the bottom of the pot so the sand will run out obviously
I'm just using tape so that's how you start and fill the biggest pot with a couple inches
of sand on the bottom when you put the other pot inside of it it's level like that now all
you have to do is put sand around the outside okay there it is now we just add
some water around the edge and throw a towel on top and that's all there is to it okay finally the wet towel about 125 so I guess this is about the hottest part of the day let's check the fridge
here 87 86 yeah that's definitely cool so 117 out 79 degrees in the cooler right now it's
112 and it's about 78 degrees in there it's 115 degrees out here 82 121 to 82 83 that's what I'm
finding anywhere from 30 33 degrees to 39 degree temperature difference so far in the last couple
days humidity is probably 15% got so hot in my yard the thermometer busted literally exploded it
got so hot back here I want to see if it makes it any cooler to add a third pot here and it's
a 12 inch Pont 10 inch pot and an 8 inch pot like being a kid again it's going to take
probably about three liters of water here so it's all done it took about three liters of
water okay I've got the little fridge covered now with the wet towel imagine making one of those out
of that little pot right there you could like cool a couple of grapes or a strawberry or something
okay I've done temperature readings on this double insulated zeer pot fridge I'm going to say just
go with the two pots and not the three yeah it's about the same but I don't think it's any better
good alternative it's a good thing to have or know how to build if you ever need it in an emergency
or if you just live in an area where there's no electricity make a few of these and these are
pretty effective they've been around a long time and I just wanted to make a video to see what
type of temps I could get and help spread the word
