Some professional tips when buying a room air conditioner, because it pays to compare: the differences may sometimes only seem small, but the effects are huge:
When it comes to air conditioners, there are a number of major differences as far as quality is concerned. These differences often only become noticeable when the air conditioner is permanently in use or when it is extremely hot over a longer period.
Many air conditioners may look similar on the outside, but they are far from similar on the inside: the difference in quality as regards their internal components could, in many cases, hardly be more striking. The PAC series is equipped exclusively with quality components that have been tried and tested over the years and which guarantee long-lasting, reliable cooling performance on any midsummer’s day.
Read on to find some convincing arguments that will help you decide to buy one of our premium air conditioners and not just any old air cooler:
Air coolers conduct water or even ice cubes(!) (from a water tank that has to be previously filled) through a filter or other distribution media. The ambient air is then blown through the equipment which is then blown into the room having been previously enriched with moisture from the “cooling water”.
When you hold your hand in front of the discharge side of the unit, you think that the air which is blown out really does feel cooler. Yet technically speaking it isn’t: the moisture content is higher and the air is ”faster“ (fan effect). When these factors are coupled with the speed with which the air is blown into the room by the fan, it makes the air feel cooler.
But when heat is withdrawn from the ambient air to produce a cool climate, this heat has to be somewhere – it can’t just vanish: the rejected heat must therefore be cycled out of the room for the room to become cooler. This just isn’t the case with air coolers: the air, or anything else for that matter, is not cycled out of the room. How then, is it possible for the room to become cooler?
It’s the same effect as with a fan. When you are sitting near the fan, you have the impression that the cool air that streams past you is cooler, although the room itself is not actually being cooled at all. And it’s the same with the so-called cheaper air coolers!
You can’t cool a whole apartment equally well with just a single air conditioner – but you can dehumidify it. And this is an incalculable advantage over so-called cheap air coolers.
In contrast to cool air that is heavier and therefore prone to being inertial, humidified air can spread through all the rooms of an apartment, provided the doors to the rooms are open, of course. The results in a hugely increased feeling of well-being, even when the temperatures outside are rocketing.
Warm, dry air is much more pleasant than moist, sticky air. This means that although a single air conditioner may not, in practice, able to create an evenly cool climate in the whole apartment - even if the unit does theoretically have the capacity to do so – it can, however, create a far more comfortable climate and increase one’s personal feeling of well-being by lowering the relative humidity throughout the whole flat.
