On hot summer days, a cooling device feels like a boon, especially during peak hours. Human bodies are sensitive to the environment, a slight increase in temperature would affect our productivity and efficiency in doing our work.
All this can be avoided if you buy a cooling device at your home or office. Now, most people are confused about what to buy a cooler or an AC and in most cases, they end up buying an Air conditioner because of smart marketing and sales pitches.
But, that turns out to be a mistake and they would end up purchasing an Air cooler again. Although Air Cooling technology has evolved a lot it also added to many problems. In this article, we will discuss Why Air Coolers Are a Better Option Than ACs?
Saves Environment
Air Conditioners are notorious for being a big carbon-emitting devices. An air conditioner uses harmful fluoride-based compressor liquid which is used to reduce the temperature of the environment.
Also, ACs release a huge amount of heat from the rear end which adds the outside temperature adding to the Global temperature rise.
The compressor used in an AC requires a huge amount of electricity and hence, the electricity consumption of the AC tends to be very high.
Now, most of the electricity is made up of coal power plants which are extremely dangerous for the environment.
But, you will not find these issues with Air Cooler, in fact, Air Cooler is the best option when it comes to Eco-friendly means of cooling the air.
Always Fresh Air
Fresh Air is a necessary requirement for a healthy human body, without fresh air, the breathing pattern of humans tends to be impacted and would add to the ailments.
Air Conditioner circulates the air inside a room by processing it through the compressor and cooling it down. This would result in cooling of the environment but, the air quality tends to suffer because of lack of ventilation.
Air Coolers ventilate the air of a room and cool the room easily which maintains fresh air in a room. There were many cases reported on media how a family died because the room was locked and no air ventilation was provided.
In each case, Air conditioners was the reason for death this is because of the AC which was circulating the same air within a room without allowing fresh oxygen to enter the room.
Energy Efficient
Air Coolers are extremely energy efficient whereas an AC consumes a lot of electricity. This is because of the compressor which compresses air to cool it down.
Even the most energy-efficient ACs like 5 start ACs consume a lot of energy to operate. This impacts your energy bills and increases your per-unit cost because of the slab change.
But, with an Air Cooler, you do not need to worry about energy consumption because only a motor and Pump is used in Air Cooler to cool the air.
Cost-Effective
Cost-Effectiveness of Air Cooler is un-comparable to the Air Conditioners. The per-unit cost of Air Coolers start from Rs.3000/- whereas the per-unit cost of an Air Conditioner starts at Rs.25,000/-.
This vast difference in prices makes Air Coolers an attractive option, especially for middle-class families.
Maintenance
Maintenance is something in which Air Conditioners win as after servicing your AC once, you do not need any maintenance for at least a year. Air Coolers need a daily water top-up which is a manual intensive labor and increases the maintenance efforts.
But, when it comes to the cost of maintenance, the AC requires a professional team that performs the maintenance tasks.
This adds to the cost of maintenance whereas when we compare it with a Cooler the cost of maintenance is nothing as anyone can fill water in the cooler.
Conclusion
As you can see, there are a lot of benefits when it comes to Air Coolers like eco-friendly, healthy, cost-effective, etc. These benefits are essential when it comes to good and healthy standards of living.
