Decakila Air Cooler KEFC012W 30L Tank 130W

Our review

This Decakila unit is an evaporative air cooler rather than a standard fan, using a 30-litre water tank and a rated evaporation capacity of 3 to 4 litres per hour to cool the air it pushes out. Its 130W motor delivers an air volume of 5000 cubic metres per hour, and it runs on 220–240V at 50Hz with a machinery-style control mode. It best suits larger, well-ventilated rooms where a steady airflow is wanted, since evaporative cooling works by adding moisture to moving air. Before buying, think about how you will refill a 30L tank and whether your space has enough ventilation for evaporation to be effective. Compare it with similarly sized coolers on tank capacity, hourly evaporation rate and air volume, and note that no further specifications are listed here.
