Evaporative Air Coolers
Q1: What is an Evaporative Air Cooler?
An evaporative air cooler uses water and airflow to cool the air naturally — unlike traditional air conditioners, it doesn’t use gas or chemicals. It’s an eco-friendly and cost-effective cooling solution for small, medium & large areas.
Q2: How does an Air Cooler work?
Air coolers pull warm air through water-soaked cooling pads, where evaporation lowers the air temperature. The result is a steady flow of cool, fresh air — perfect for events, film sets, construction site, warehouses, workshops and more!
Q3: What’s the difference between an Air Cooler and an Air Conditioner?
Air conditioners recirculate indoor air and require enclosed spaces. Air coolers work best in open or semi-open areas, providing constant fresh air and using far less electricity.
Q4: Where do air coolers work best?
Air coolers are ideal for outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces like events, marquees, film sets, factories, workshops, and warehouses. They perform best in well-ventilated areas but can also be used in indoor enclosed spaces.
Q5: How much power and water do they use?
Our coolers are energy efficient, using roughly the same power as a standard fan. Each unit connects to a regular plug point and runs on a refillable water tank or continuous hose feed.
