Q: What is the advantage of an air cooler over a traditional fan?
A: A fan simply circulates air at room temperature whilst the air cooler lowers
the temperature before circulating it around the room. Based on the
principle of evaporative cooling air passes through a moist screen
increasing the relative humidity as moist air is cooler.
Q: How do I achieve best results with the air cooler?
A: For best results position the air cooler near an open window or door facing
into the centre of the room (as per diagram on page 7).
Q: What size room will this unit cool?
A: This unit is designed as a personal cooler and unlike an air conditioner, can
be operated with windows and doors open. It will not significantly reduce
the temperature in large rooms but will provide a comfortable individual
environment.
Q: Why should I use the unit as a heater?
A: The PTC heater unit combines with the ioniser to provide warm clean air in
medium sized rooms.
Q: Can I add scent to the water?
A: No, it is not advisable to add scent.
Q: Is there a limit to the number of ice cubes that can be added to the tank?
A: No, just be careful that you do not overfill the water tank.
Q: Can my cooler be left on when I am out?
A: No, it is unwise. Remember the unit is best used with doors and windows
open.
