RULE OF THUMB
A cooler rated for a smaller area will run constantly and still underperform. Slightly oversizing is safer than undersizing.

CLIMATE / EVAPORATIVE COOLING
UNDERSTAND YOUR CLIMATE
Climate Matters
For Better Cooling
For Better Cooling
Air coolers work by evaporation. They perform best in dry heat and less well in high humidity.
CLIMATE 01
BEST CONDITIONS
Dry climate
(Delhi NCR, Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan, most of North and Central India in peak summer) → An air cooler performs very well and is far more economical than an AC.
COOLING PERFORMANCE
An air cooler performs very well.
CLIMATE 02
VENTILATION MATTERS
Humid climate
(coastal areas, monsoon months) → Cooling effect is reduced. Good ventilation becomes essential.
WHAT TO REMEMBER
Good ventilation becomes essential.

OPEN WINDOWS
BRIGHTER COMFORT
This is the single most common mistake.
An air cooler needs an open window or door to push humid air out. In a fully sealed room, cooling drops sharply within an hour.
Keep a window partially open.
It feels counter-intuitive, but it is how the technology works.

COOLING PADS
CHOOSE YOUR COOLING PADS
Honeycomb pads cool more efficiently,
while wood wool keeps replacement
costs lower.
Honeycomb pads generally offer better cooling efficiency and last longer than traditional wood wool pads, but need periodic cleaning. Wood wool pads cost less and are easy to replace.

POWER / ELECTRICITY
CHECK POWER CONSUMPTION
Compare wattage carefully — electricity use
becomes a major cost over a long summer.
Air coolers typically consume a fraction of the electricity an air conditioner uses. For most Indian households running through a long summer, this is the single biggest cost advantage. Check the wattage on the specification sheet and compare.
