How can you tell the difference between an air conditioner and an air cooler?
Although air coolers are often mistaken for air conditioners, they actually have very little in common.
The air conditioner uses a refrigerant (recognized as a pollutant) to cool the air, while the air cooler reproduces the natural process of evaporation. To do this, the tank is filled with water and connected to the mains (or to the water supply). Ambient air is drawn in by the unit, then passed through a humidified pad before being redistributed, naturally cooled, throughout your premises.
Finally, the air conditioner is generally made up of at least two units (an outdoor unit that captures the ambient air before transforming it, and one or more indoor unit(s) to redistribute it), the cooler is monobloc.
The former requires heavy, expensive installation and cannot be moved afterwards, whereas a mobile air cooler can be placed where it’s needed when it’s needed.
