What's the difference between an Air Cooler and an Air Conditioner?Updated 10 months ago
Air Coolers and Air Conditioners are very similar in that they both distribute cool air. On an Air Conditioner, you can set your desired temperature, but you're unable to control the temperature of an Air Cooler. This is because an Air Cooler cools the air via an evaporation method.
More differences include:
- Air Coolers don’t require any outside ventilation, while Air Conditioners must be vented.
- Air Coolers work best when placed near an open door or window.
- Air Conditioners can lower the temperature far more than is possible with an Air Cooler.
- Most Air Coolers can also be used as a humidifier.
