Off-grid cooling experiment

A small off-grid cooling kit with a big old idea inside.

The Zeer Pot Building Kit gives you a practical way to build and test passive cooling without batteries, plugs, or refrigerant.

Made for hands-on projects

It is a strong fit for garden projects, sustainability lessons, low-energy living experiments, and anyone curious about traditional cooling methods.

Simple materials, memorable result

Terracotta, sand, water, and a lid create a memorable demonstration of evaporation and heat transfer. The setup is intentionally visible, so the science is easy to explain.

Use it honestly

Treat it as a passive cooler and learning kit, not a replacement for safe refrigerated food storage. It is best for exploring the principle and keeping suitable items cooler in the right conditions.

Next step

Take the experiment outdoors.

Use the kit for a garden, camping, or sustainability project where the materials and method are easy to see.
