Affordable Air Cooler and AC Tips Offer Relief as Temperatures Rise

The discount retailer Action is selling a portable air cooler for €39.95. The device uses a 4‑litre water tank and an 80‑watt motor to lower room temperature, offers three fan speeds, a timer and a remote control, and is designed to be compact and energy‑efficient.

Separate consumer guidance advises how to keep air‑conditioning costs down during hot weather. Recommended settings include maintaining indoor temperatures at 24‑26 °C rather than the lowest possible, using automatic mode and timers, sealing windows and curtains to block heat, regularly cleaning filters, and choosing a unit sized correctly for the space. Selecting high‑efficiency models (A+++ rating) further reduces electricity use.
