By Alex D White


There are a lot of features of an evaporative air cooler that you need to know about, the effectiveness of such air cooler, it also has certain advantages and disadvantages that urges people to install a portable air cooler in their rooms or apartments. The evaporative coolers are considered to work differently from how the conventional air conditioners work.

Knowing more about the evaporative cooler, it works on the basis of endothermic reaction. The endothermic reaction is a simple process where the energy is absorbed in the form of heat. IN the evaporative air cooler, the air passes through the wet pads, wicks absorbed with water. As the air passes through the pads, the water in the pads evaporates and this causes the heat in the air to be absorbed and converted to cool environment.

Similar to the swamp coolers even the portable air coolers consists of the same equipment, it contains a container that holds different things including, the water pump, container for water and the controllers in the air cooler. You can also find castors that help you take the cooler from one place to another. The air cooler is portable; it is very lightweight so it can be shifted with ease. There is a limit to the water containing capacity of personal evaporative air coolers. You can choose to have a cooler of water capacity of 6-8 litres depending on the humidity of the environment.

You may often come against air coolers that have controllers for maintaining the water level in the cooler tank. The fact about the evaporative cooler is they are portable, thus they cannot be connected with a permanent water supply for water level maintenance.

You also have the option of using the commercial air coolers in large areas like warehouse and big motors, as they are very effective and energy saving method of cooling. Commercial air coolers can effectively be used to cool the garages, warehouses and large houses comfortably.

An important factor for the evaporative air cooler is that the air being cooled need not be captured, like the conventional air conditioner. Also, it becomes important for the area to have proper ventilation as the humid air produced from the cooler should be replaced with the drier air.

The amount of energy used for the air cooler to work is very low as compared to the air conditioner. The electricity cost of using the evaporative air cooler is very low. Unlike noisy air conditioners, the portable air coolers produce no noise and enable you to have a peaceful sleep.

Do remember that additional features cost you extra, however even though the features add up to the cost of the evaporative cooler, it cost of buying the portable cooler is still less than an conventional air conditioner. Moreover the maintenance and energy charges are also low.
