Air Coolers vs. Air Conditioners
Air coolers are green. Let us compare evaporative air coolers with air conditioners to find out what makes them green.
Energy-efficient
Air coolers consume up to 10 times less energy than ACs. They consume less electricity and can also work in low voltage areas. Monthly electricity / power bills are significantly lower.
Low Maintenance
Air coolers require low maintenance; you rarely need to summon a mechanic for maintenance or troubleshooting as in the case of ACs.
Environment Friendly
Air coolers present significant environmental benefits with no harmful Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) emissions and very low power consumption.
-
Air coolers use fresh, clean air from the environment. They also allow you to keep windows open for better air circulation whereas ACs circulate stale air inside a sealed room.
