As the temperature rises, it becomes increasingly difficult to stay calm and cool in the summer. Although air conditioning is the need of the hour, many households still use air coolers. And why not, air coolers boast many good reasons to choose them over air conditioners. Apart from being environmentally friendly, air coolers are cheap and economical compared to air conditioners.
Summers are harsh in Pakistan, especially after the global climate, mainly in some parts. Temperatures can reach an incredible 45 degrees Celsius in some parts of the country. Many of us use air coolers to combat the summer heat. Both are cost-effective and also provide a lot of conveniences. However, rising temperatures each year mean we need to use air coolers more efficiently. We’ve put together some simple tips to help you achieve just that. The best way to cool down a room is by using a mini room air cooler or air cooler size that operates according to room size.
- Ensure proper ventilation of air in the room
- Add ice to the water tank
- Take good care of the air cooler
- wet the cooling pads before use
Ensure proper ventilation of air in the room
One of the most effective ways to use an air cooler is to ensure proper ventilation in the room. A common misconception is that air coolers, like air conditioners, work efficiently when placed indoors. It is not true. Air coolers work on an evaporative basis, blowing hot air over cooling pads that have been soaked in water. A smooth airflow is therefore necessary for its cooling.

It is also important to ensure good ventilation in the room to push the moisture out. To do this, you need to open the windows in the room. Be careful not to open them too wide, otherwise, the result will only increase the temperature in the room. You can experiment by adjusting the window a bit to improve the amount of cooling.
Add ice to the water tank
Air cooler’s ice compartments Another effective way to increase cooling efficiency is to add ice to the water in the tank. Many people have already tried this with their coolers. Some coolers also come with dedicated ice compartments. Adding ice to the water cools the pads, causing cold air to pass through them. However, this is only effective if you are sitting very close to the radiator. However, in the long run, adding ice will not help reduce the temperature or humidity in the room. Adding too much ice can also slow down the evaporation process, reducing the efficiency of the air cooler. This makes it important to know when to put ice in the cooler. Adding ice proves to be more effective when dealing with very high temperatures.
Take good care of the air cooler
It is important to have your air cooler checked before using it this summer. One of the first things you should do is clean the cooling pads. They collect dust and pollen over time. Once a week you can clean the pads with a brush. If a lot of dust has accumulated, the best option would be to replace them. It is also important to clean the water tank and make sure there are no leaks. A quick swipe over the fan blades will help increase efficiency. It is advisable to have the air cooler serviced regularly. If you want professional help, then you can always turn to Lahore Centre. They can help by doing quick maintenance and even repairs.
wet the cooling pads before use
one way to ensure immediate cooling is to run the pump while filling the tank with water. The pump will pass water through the cooling pads allowing them to pre-soak the water. After filling the tank, you can start the fan. This helps the cooler to cool the air as soon as you turn it on.
Over the past few years, the way air-coolers have improved significantly while their sizes have dropped significantly. However, the basic principle of evaporation remains the same. The evaporating coolant absorbs hot air and passes it through wet wood wool or air-cooler honeycombs to cool. So, once you have decided on the basics of air conditioning, follow these simple tips to make sure your air conditioner works best in this bad, hot season.
Other things to consider
There are a few other things you can do to increase the efficiency of your room air cooler. It can be something as simple as closing the curtains in your room to prevent heat from entering the room or turning off lights and other appliances. Make sure you have the air cooler installed in the right place where it can effectively reduce the temperature while providing cool air to everyone in the room.
