Abstract
Water distribution apparatus for an evaporative medium in the evaporative cooler includes a single molded element which is disposed on the top of an evaporative medium. The water distribution apparatus contacts the four sides of the evaporative medium at the top of the evaporative medium and is sealed to both the top of the evaporative medium and to the top of the evaporative cooler housing in which the apparatus is disposed to prevent air loss around the apparatus and accordingly to insure that air flow is through the evaporative medium. A water distribution tube is disposed within a central water deflection element in the apparatus, and water from the tube falls onto the top of the evaporative medium.
