A Fast-Guide to Cool Energy Products

Evaporative Coolers
(MJ3000, TV3000, Sumo and Breezair 120)

Portable Evaporative coolers are the natural way to cool down and contain no CFC refrigerants. They work with the windows and doors open and give a continuous flow of cool, washed, fresh air to keep you comfortable during the hottest days and nights. The concept works like this ... Positioned adjacent to an open window, your evaporative cooler draws fresh air from outside. The air is drawn through a special moisture rich pad, cooled and filtered at the same time then circulated into the open space. This is a breath of fresh air to all hay fever and asthma sufferers. As the fresh cool air is drawn into the space it literally forces hot, stale air out through open windows and doors, flushing the area with fresh clean air hour after hour.

Single Unit Portable Air Conditioners
(KY32, KYD32, Frrido, Clima 9, Issimo and KY44)

Mobile air conditioning unit’s work by taking heat from a room, expelling it to the outside. Air inside the room is chilled and recirculated. There are two main types of mobile, single units and split systems. Single units are instantly recognised by their exhaust hose, which is used to expel the hot and damp air to the outside. Single units can cope with a wide range of standard room requirements.

Split Unit Portable Air Conditioners
(Clima 16, Split 5.27kW and Avalanche 6.7kW)

Split Units have separate evaporator and condenser units. The main unit blows cool air into the room while the condenser, which is placed outside through either a window, door or wall, expels the warm air. The units are powered by simply plugging into a 13amp power supply. These units are a discreet alternative to units with exhaust hoses and are ideal for any application, especially commercial offices and workplaces.

Spot Cooling
(MovinCool SF15 and Titan 7.3kW)

Portable spot cooling air conditioners are designed specifically to provide streams of powerful cool air precisely to the area it is needed. Spot Coolers not only cool people, processes and equipment in precisely the right places, but also improve air quality and are used to back up existing air conditioning systems. For many years spot coolers have been used in industrial areas such as food processing, printing and plastic moulding, as well as IT suites and TV and Film productions; where it is as important to keep the equipment cool and efficient as the people operating it.

Fans
(Rapid Fan 500 and Air Jammer on a pedestal and Air Jammer 650’s)

Fans provide comfort by creating controllable air movement providing ventilation and cooling. They can be used to complement an air conditioner or evaporative cooler. We offer an extensive range of fans to provide the ideal ‘cooling’ solution across a wide variety of commercial, industrial, retail and leisure applications.


Frequently Asked Questions

Q. How much does it cost?
A. We can supply and install rental units for as little as £14 per week up to multi-unit packages to help cool whole office and warehouse buildings.

Performance

Q. How much cooling do I get from a single portable air conditioning unit?
A. We can offer units from as little as 3.5kW to help cool 2 people in one office.

Q. If we have insufficient units will they work and control the office temperature?
A. For best results in all weather conditions the correct number of portable air conditioning units should be used. If fewer are installed then on the hottest days the office temperature will rise - especially mid-afternoon.

Q. How much maintenance do these units need once installed?
A. There is a simple weekly maintenance procedure involving simply emptying the water and cleaning the filters, which needs to be carried out to ensure the unit works to its full potential.

Q. Will a portable air conditioning reduce humidity?
A. Yes, water is removed from the air passing through the unit. The water either evaporates or collects in the condensate tank, which requires emptying occasionally.

Q. How much noise do the portable units make?
A. Most portable air conditioning units have a choice of fan speeds. At the higher speed the fan noise would normally be lost in the background noise of a busy office. At lower speeds the unit is scarcely audible.

Location, Installation & Services

Q. Where should we position the portable cooling units?
A. You will need to be positioned adjacent to a window so that the warm air exhaust and/or water-cooled condenser can discharge from the window. In this way the heat from the room is taken outside away from the cooler office.

Q. What size is the warm air exhaust?
A. This can range from 125mm in diameter and up to 250mm diameter.

Q. Is there a security risk in leaving the windows open?
A. The warm air hose is flexible and is temporary and easy to move. The unit is not needed at night as most people turn off the unit and withdraw the hose and then close the window. It is easy to put it back in the morning.

Q. What power supply is needed for portable cooling units?
A. A standard 13amp supply and standard plug is needed and an extension lead can be used to a socket if none is available close by.

Q. How much power do these units use?
A. Approximately one third of the cooling kW value of each unit.

Q. Does a temporary cooling unit run all the time?
A. No. There is an integral thermostat, which turns off and on the unit when the required room temperature is reached.
