Summers are a time when you need to protect yourself from heat. The surest way to get respite from the searing heat is to get an air cooler. When you visit the local market, you will get to know the wide variety of air coolers available. You can find a personal air cooler, a desert air cooler, a tower cooler or a window cooler. The features of these air coolers differ slightly but the purpose remains the same.
The air coolers work on the principle that evaporation causes cooling. A fan sprays a fine mist in the air. The fine droplets of water evaporate easily causing a cooling effect. In a few air coolers, the air is made to blow through a material like a pad or mesh that has been wetted. This produces a cooling effect.
In a desert cooler, hot air is sucked inside the air cooler from outside. Due to the hot air, water on the pads evaporates resulting in a cooling effect. There are cooling pads on all three sides, which are constantly moistened with water by a water pump. As the name suggests, a desert cooler is effective even when the ambient temperature is high.
Desert coolers have a larger capacity for holding water and you need not have to refill them with water frequently. Wood wool or honeycomb cooling pads placed on three sides ensure a long-lasting cooling effect. Unlike other air coolers, it has a turbo air throw which enables it to cool larger areas. Swing mode allows a desert cooler to cool every nook and corner of a room.
It is a common complaint among the users of air coolers that they do not work during the rainy season when humidity increases. However, the JetMax series of Voltas desert coolers have a smart humidity control that let you enjoy cooling during the monsoons as well. With features like a large fan, it can throw the air farther away than personal coolers. And thus they are ideal for large spaces which have an area of more than 200 square feet. No wonder, it can be found in commercial places apart from homes.
