Evaporative Cooling Servicing Melbourne

Why Have Your Evaporative Cooler Serviced?

Evaporative coolers create a warm and wet environment, which means that bacteria and mould grow if the system is not serviced regularly (i.e. every 2nd year). Having your cooler serviced will ensure that it is thoroughly cleaned and serviced, which means that it’ll be running as efficiently as possible and passing on clean and cool air to your household.

What Is An Evaporative Cooling Unit?

An evaporative air cooler is a type of air conditioning system that works by utilising evaporation to cool down air temperatures. Once the water evaporates, its liquid form will eventually turn into gas. During evaporation, the particles with the highest energy leave the water, therefore significantly reducing the temperature. Aside from the decrease in temperature, the use of evaporative coolers can fix temperature variations and save energy all at the same time.

The hunt for energy efficiency in the realm of cooling and heating can seem to be a never-ending one. Whether your goal is to properly cool down a massive warehouse or you simply want to keep a garage cool, your options may seem limited. Surging in popularity in recent years has been the evaporative cooling industry. Evaporative cooling promises a great many cooling benefits to buildings of all sizes. Despite how effective evaporative cooling is, there are many myths and floating misconceptions going around. Today, we’ll seek to clarify some of the most common misconceptions that people have about evaporative cooling.

Myths & Misconceptions about Evaporative Cooling

Evaporative Coolers Cost Too Much To Run

First and foremost, evaporative cooling units are among the most energy-efficient cooling products on the market. Evaporative coolers use precious little electricity while in operation. As a result, evaporative coolers are considerably cheaper to run than a typical air conditioning unit. This is particularly true when you compare air conditioning units to evaporative coolers for larger coverage areas, such as a warehouse.

Evaporative Coolers Need A Lot Of Maintenance

We understand why this misconception got started, but it is still a misconception. Evaporative coolers are impressive looking machines but they actually have very little going on inside of them. In fact, the most complicated piece in the entire cooler is the pump. As long as you pay attention to your cooler, you won’t have to deal with any major points of maintenance unless something breaks. As we already stated, there is very little inside the evaporative cooler that CAN break. Evaporative coolers are durable, long-lasting machines.

Evaporative Coolers Won't Work In High Humidity Environments.

Finally, there is the misconception that evaporative coolers won’t operate in high humidity environments. That just isn’t true and we aren’t sure why people believe it. Evaporative coolers work well no matter the heat or humidity level of the environment. You can rest assured that your evaporative cooler will do its job in order to keep you cool in your business or home.
