portable air coolers are a great way to keep cool during the summer months, the air coolers are designed for personal cooling, and are not designed to cool the room or area where it is placed.

An air cooler works by drawing the hot air into the unit, which then runs over the iced water in the wick, this then extracts the heat from the air and returns it as cool air, this is called an endothermic reaction.

Portable air coolers are not very efficient in high humidity areas, they are designed to be effective in low humidity areas, and require a window to be open when in use, the reason for this is during the process of cooling the unit produces humidity, this humidity  needs to be removed to the outside of the building via an open window.

An air cooler is NOT an air conditioner, a portable air cooler provides personal cooling and does not condition the air in the room, think of  an air cooler as an upgrade to an electric fan. The portable air coolers are not as expensive to buy as an air conditioner unit would be, and can be placed anywhere in the home without having to have external venting fitted, these air coolers are very easy to maintain, the average person should have no problems carrying out maintenance on the unit.
