They cool the inlet air by several degrees. But they send the humidity of that air up considerably, and this cancels out the benefits of the cooling effect when it is very hot. The ‘Heat Index’ is the key detail, as explained above. In the case of the InstaChill, it will add a lot more humidity than the ChillMax, and as I have explained and demonstrated, the ChillMax is bad enough when it comes to increasing the ‘feels like’ temperature. Now, some people might be thinking that a 4ºC is better than nothing at all. And they’d be right if it was just a matter of temperature. But there’s more to it than that. I mentioned that the exhaust from the Chillmax felt ‘softer’. I knew what it was, but my data logger shows it in numbers. Evaporative coolers are a big risk with the humidity we experience in the UK. And especially indoors. The secret is Hydro-Chill Technology, which uses our advanced evaporative air-cooling filter and our enhanced cool-mist chamber, to pull in warm, dry air and instantly transform it into cool refreshing air! The filter is resistant to mould and mildew and can be put in the dishwasher to clean and sterilise it for years of use. Chillmax Air gives you the best features of both fans and air conditioning in one, compact unit that’s also a night light. Unlike fans that just move warm air around your room, or air conditioning units that cost the earth, make a lot of noise and use ozone-destroying chemical coolants to cool the air but leave it dry, Chillmax Air sprays a fine mist that is then sent through the special filter and so only uses evaporation and water to operate!

It might – while you’re blowing air over ice. But once they defrost, which will happen in a few minutes in the temperatures you’ll likely be experiencing, then no. You’ll also have more condensate to deal with from the melted ice pouring out of the front grille.

Adjustable three-speed whisper-quiet fan This antimicrobial replacement filter will keep your Chillmax Air running perfectly for months. Designed specially to fit, easily into your Chillmax Air cooler, you can simply swap out the old filter for this new one and you're ready to go! Why not have a spare filter on hand so you always have a clean, working filter in your Chillmax Air and you're never left waiting for the dishwasher on those really hot, dry days and nights? We recommend you replace your filter every three to six months so this replacement filter will last you all Summer!Only the air being directed at you is cooler. Once that slightly cooler air has passed through warmer air, it’ll be close to ambient again. The device cannot cool down a room. It’s far too small for that. More than just a fan, the JML Chillmax Air GO is a portable space cooler that’s primed to deliver cool air anywhere! This modern unit features three adjustable speeds and evaporative cooling technology; which takes water from the sealed tank, and passes it through a filter (that uses the natural cooling effect of evaporation) to push out cool, humidified air!

VAT Number GB 557 1452 37 I fired up my trusty data logger and left it in front of my desk fan for 30 minutes for the control data. Then I powered up the Chillmax and moved the logger in front of it for the same period of time. This is what it recorded (the red line is where I moved it). Until August 2021, the answer in relation to the ChillMax was no. However, I saw an advert (as shouty as usual) for the InstaChill tonight. Unlike the ChillMax, which is the size of a small table top radio, the InstaChill is the size of a bedside cabinet. And you can certainly get larger evaporative coolers from other manufacturers. The working principle is identical, except that the larger the surface area of water, and the greater the airflow over that water, then the greater will be the possible drop in temperature at the front end (and the more moisture being pumped out to increase the humidity). However, cooling effectiveness is influenced greatly by the RH of the air going in.

We recommend weekly cleaning of your Chillmax Air filter to maintain best working condition. Replace every 3-6 months. The calculation for this is complex (you should see how long my Excel formula for it is). It is non-linear, and the increase in ‘feels like’ is greater at higher temperatures. It also contains an element of opinion/perception, which is why there’s no point using numbers above about 60ºC. But the ‘Heat Index’ is what forecasters use. Incidentally, the official health designations for the colours are: yellow – caution; amber – extreme caution; orange – danger; and red – extreme danger. Vulnerable people need to take these into consideration before going out in hot weather. No. Evaporative coolers are not influenced significantly by the temperature of the water used in them. The temperature of the air that comes out depends on the temperature (and humidity) of the air going in, and the science of evaporation. Only this evaporation results in the cooling effect observed.The amount of water vapour that air can hold varies with the temperature. Cold air can’t hold much, but warmer air can. At any temperature, once you reach the maximum amount possible, any extra vapour condenses out as liquid water – misted up windows, dampness, even drips and pools of moisture on window sills or under lamp posts. In winter, the condensation point is reached very easily, which is why you get your windows all steamed up and everywhere is often damp, but in hotter weather it is more appropriate to think ‘sauna’ (which is why it gets ‘muggy’). This air moisture is what we call ‘humidity’. Some products may be delivered straight to your door from one of our suppliers and these products will be labelled within the product description.

There are many, many more. And in every case, the relationship with humidity is the key. If it is already humid, evaporative coolers do not work and actually make things worse. The housing of Chillmax Go Fan is cleverly designed around a similar concept to a gimbal or gyroscopic mechanism used in aerospace, aviation and navigation devices. Able to spin on two independent axes, it means you can position your Chillmax Go Fan through 360⁰ in any direction and at any angle for the perfect, multi-directional stream of cool air. Rechargeable lithium ion battery runs for up to 5hoursThanks to the sealed water tank, cordless design, and rechargeable battery, you can take Chillmax Air Go out with you wherever you go – making it perfect for work, in the car, or even at the gym!
