5 Easy Tips for Better Air Cooler Performance This Summer
After an exhausting hot day in the sun, you come back home to a refreshing drink and turn on your better air cooler to lie down and relax.
A few minutes pass, and you discover that there is no water in the tank! You summon your willpower to refill it and go back to bed. This time several minutes pass – but the cooler is no longer ‘cooling‘!!
Have you ever experienced that frustrating situation on hot dry days of summer when even an ounce of cool air is priceless?
Coolers are long lasting budget friendly appliances for cooling the air, however, they require timely maintenance for optimum performance. Often, simple practices such as regularly cleaning the water tank and changing the water work well. There are also some minor changes that you can make regarding your use of the air cooler to drastically improve its performance.
We have curated these 5 simple tips to ensure that your air cooler works efficiently this summer season
1. Ensure adequate ventilation in the room
Unlike air conditioners, air coolers work best in well-ventilated areas. This makes constant airflow essential for the air cooler to ensure effective cooling. Also, good ventilation is important to remove moisture from the room.
Best practices include facing the back of the air cooler to the outside environment ie your home window, door or galley way. Another helpful tip is to ensure ‘exclusive airflow’ through the cooler. This means shutting off ventilation or any other source of air leakage that could affect cooling.
2. Placement Is Important For Air Coolers
Air coolers work on the principle of evaporative cooling, which means that the more hot air that goes in, the faster it will evaporate, resulting in cooler air. Place your air cooler near a window such that it gets adequate supply of fresh air and pushes the cool air to the far corners of the room.
If you have a medium to large sized room, air coolers with powerful air throw (up to 50 to 90 feet) will suffice. You can find here high performance air coolers by Moonair.
3. Ensure Full Water-Level
As mentioned above, the evaporative cooling process is dependent on air and water. While fresh warm air is drawn into the cooler, the water must be maintained at the correct level to continue the cooling process.
Always ensure adequate water level as running the air cooler without sufficient water can cause serious damage. An adequate water level at all times will result in optimum performance while ensuring longer life for the cooler.
4. Add ice for maximum cooling
Most people use air coolers after the water tank is filled up to the top. However, adding a little ice to the water can do wonders for you. For instance, modern air coolers from MoonAir come with a dedicated ice compartment.
As you add ice to the chamber, the pads cool down, further lowering the temperature of the airflow. Simply fill the ice chamber with plenty of ice cubes and enjoy cool, relaxing air.
5. Saturate the Cool Pad before use
Pre-cooling the pad increases the performance of the air cooler. When you fill water in the air cooler it is recommended to keep the water pump running to make it more effective. This allows the cooling pad to absorb water before you use it and further lowers the temperature of the sucked air.
Once the tank is full, you can switch on the air cooler fan and enjoy the cool air.
