Default Reptile cooling systems?

Hi, Im planning on breeding diamond pythons in a few years, and they need to be kept pretty cold in order to attain fertility (50-60 degrees F), and what makes this tricky, is that it needs to be done during our summer.
Ive seen a couple of models of reptile cooling fans, but they look a bit feeble to do the trick. I was wondering if people have used them, and what temps they can get down to, if not, what other methods have people used to keep temps down during the summer?

do you want to keep the viv at that temp?
theres a couple of things you could do either way keeping the viv that temp would be hard or if you have an of fridge use that but with a fan blowing a bit warmer air in connected to a stat or a herp nursery 2 would be better but them optoins are out the viv
