How does evaporative cooling work?

Evaporative cooling is a suitable type of air conditioning for Ferntree Gully’s long hot summers. At the core of the system is a central cooling unit.

Outlets are used to bring the cool air into your home. This is done when air from outside is cooled. Before it reaches the inside of your home it is filtered through pads.

Best of all, you are able to keep your doors and windows open when you have your evaporative cooling system on. This means you aren’t locked away during Ferntree Gully’s summers!
