Fresh air even outdoors? What is the water cooler and how does it work?

Even during the warm seasons you have to look after your customers, including all those who like to be outdoors.

At certain times of the year, however, cooling commercial spaces has a cost that can become truly unaffordable! And those who have outside spaces or terraces know how complicated it is to create cooling zones without spending a fortune. As a result of too much heat, certain spaces risk becoming unusable.

Fortunately, a system for cooling commercial spaces, even outdoors, without waste and with low consumption does exist. Here is what the water cooler is and how it works.

What is the water cooler?

A water cooler is a system that uses evaporative cooling to generate fresh air through a water-soaked panel.

Yes, it is (almost) as simple as that.

Evaporative cooling is an air-conditioning system that is quite simple to operate, it has very low costs and is truly environmentally friendly. The water cooler, in fact, does not use refrigerant gas, it only requires water and a small amount of energy to operate (roughly the same amount of energy as a few watts of light bulb).

Although its efficiency is lower than a traditional air-conditioning system, it can create very localised cooling and comfort zones, even outdoors and within large work spaces.

How does the water cooler work?

Evaporation is a natural phenomenon with which we are all familiar; a water cooler works precisely through evaporation: naturally warm summer air passes through a water-soaked cellulose panel; the water evaporates and the heat is retained by the panel, which returns fresh air. Just like the air that you breathe when you are around a waterfall.

Little energy is used, as it is only the energy needed to pump and distribute the water, so that the panel remains hydrated, ensuring a constant flow of fresh air.

A water cooler, in essence, works very simply by means of a natural process. It can cool localised areas, even outdoors, drastically reducing consumption and avoiding unnecessary energy waste.

The advantages of our coolers

Since 2001, we have been manufacturing efficient and environmentally friendly water coolers for all types of commercial and industrial spaces, including outdoor spaces. Our coolers can help make your spaces cooler and healthier, with low running costs.

Ecological and sustainable. Our water coolers are a source of fresh, clean air. They do not use refrigerant gases (unlike conventional air conditioners) and, thanks to their low electricity input, help reduce the use of fossil fuels and CO2 emissions, thus reducing their environmental impact.

Cheap and durable. Due to their structural simplicity, our evaporative coolers are more reasonably priced than other cooling and air conditioning systems, they consume little energy and do not need frequent maintenance.

Safe for your health. Our water coolers ensure a constant exchange of fresh air, keeping the environment healthy and comfortable. Our devices are also the first with an antibacterial UV device for effective air filtration and sanitisation, preventing the formation of mould and bacteria.

  • Immediate temperature reduction
  • Easy installation and handling
  • Antibacterial UV filtration device
  • Very low consumption and no energy wastage
  • Guaranteed effectiveness, even outdoors
