Evaporative Cooling

Evaporative Cooling Melbourne

At Plum Heating and Cooling, we understand that when you need an Evaporative Cooling system, you’ll need a unit that is well-known, reliable and affordable.
Evaporative Cooling is a reasonably priced ducted air conditioning system that will suit almost any home in Melbourne.

Evaporative Cooling – How it Works

An Evaporative Cooler is a ducted air conditioning system that uses the process of evaporation to cool your entire home.
When an Evaporative Cooler is turned on, the large filter pads inside the unit are saturated with fresh water to ensure the best possible results from the evaporation process.
Fresh air is then drawn from outside your home into the cooling system via the unit’s fan. As the air passes through the wet filter pads, the pads act as a filter for any dust, pollen or pollutants that may be in the air.
The air is then circulated to your home through strategically placed outlets (or vents) into each room you would like to cool.
Evaporative Cooling requires you to keep your doors and windows open for the air to escape. By doing this, you ensure that you are getting the best possible cooling effect and cleanest air for your home.
In order for your system to work effectively, the air in the entire house should be replaced once every two (2) minutes. The specialists at Plum will be able to calculate this for you to suit your home.
