Air Cooler Buying Guide for Pakistan
Five things decide which room cooler is right for you: your room size, your power supply, your city's humidity, the pads and the motor.

- 51 to 80 litres: family bedroom or lounge. Medium Air Cooler Price in Pakistan
- Above 80 litres: hall or big drawing room. Large Air Cooler Price in Pakistan
2. Match the power type to your supply
- Steady power: normal AC cooler.
- UPS at home: Inverter Air Cooler Price in Pakistan.
- Long load shedding or solar: 12V DC Air Cooler Price in Pakistan or AC DC Air Cooler Price in Pakistan.

3. Check the motor and pump
Look for the motor watts on the spec sheet. A copper motor is listed on many Nasgas models and on the Canon CA-6500. A bigger fan (16 to 18 inch, or 450 to 500 mm) throws air further. See the motor and pump guide.
4. Pads, ice and water
3-sided honeycomb pads cool better and last longer than grass pads. An ice box or ice bottles give extra cooling on peak days. A float valve lets you connect a water line. See cooler pads and Ice Box Air Cooler Price in Pakistan.
5. Think about your city
Coolers work best in dry heat. In humid cities place the cooler near an open window. Read does an air cooler work in humidity?
When to buy
Demand peaks in May and June. Buying in March or early April gives you more stock to choose from before the rush.
How long does an air cooler last?
The plastic body of a brand cooler does not rust, so the body usually outlives the moving parts. The pump and pads are the parts that wear first; the motor lasts longer if the cooler is not run dry and gets steady voltage.
To get the most years from a cooler, clean it regularly, empty it at the end of summer and store it dry. Our air cooler cleaning guide has the steps.
