Evaporative air conditioners use far less electricity compared to refrigerated systems therefore, less fossil fuels such as coal and natural gas are consumed in the production of electricity. Investing in a premium evaporative air conditioning product will not only deliver lower running costs, but will also reduce energy network demands and lower the carbon footprint of a household as a result. The only power-consuming components of an evaporative cooler are the fan, electronic control and a small water pump. As a result, evaporative cooling running costs are low, using up to 80 per cent less energy than refrigerated air conditioning*** which means less fossil fuels such as coal and natural gas are consumed in the production of electricity.
