Air cooler or air conditioner: which is the best for you?

Choosing between an air cooler and an air conditioner depends on your climate and needs. Here is a quick guide:

  • Air cooler: Ideal for dry climates where humidity levels are low. They cool air through evaporation and are generally more energy-efficient than air conditioners. However, they may not be as effective in humid environments.
  • Air conditioner: Perfect for all climates, especially hot and humid regions. They remove both heat and humidity, providing a more consistent cooling experience. However, they consume more energy compared to air coolers.

  • Maintenance: Regular cleaning and maintenance are crucial for optimal performance and lifespan.
  • Energy consumption: Air conditioners can significantly increase your electricity bills. Consider energy-efficient models to minimise energy usage.
