To help you, we have created this Buying Guide with all the information you will need to make the best decision and purchase the most suitable window air conditioner.



What is a window air conditioner?
The window air conditioner is one of the most traditional models of this type of appliance. This was the first air conditioning model that was marketed to serve smaller spaces such as homes and offices.
Composed of one piece, the window air conditioner is installed in a recess in the wall of a room. Therefore, this appliance is also known as a wall air conditioner.

The fact is that one of its differentials is that, with installation, one part of the device is inside the environment and the other outside.


Regarding its operation, window air conditioning has the same type of system as other appliances: it removes heat from inside the room and throws it outside the house.

Although there are some requirements for the installation of this type of air conditioner, for example, the hole in the wall that modifies the facade of the building or house, this is one of the most economical appliances in its category.

In addition, over time, window air conditioning kept pace with new technologies. Proof of this are the models that today offer facilities such as remote control and filters that even eliminate dust and bacteria.



When is window air conditioning indicated?
It is a fact that the window air conditioner effectively helps to combat the proliferation of fungi and allergens, as the device keeps the air in the room clean.
But the window air conditioner has some aspects that need to be taken into consideration, so not just anyone can have one.

That's because, for you to have a window air conditioner, there needs to be a hole in the wall of your home's façade. If the gap already exists, great. Otherwise, authorization is required for the façade to be altered, especially if you live in a building.

In addition, it is important that you know that window air conditioning is suitable for smaller spaces because of the power it can achieve.

What are the differences between window air conditioners and other appliances?
In addition to window air conditioning, there are also portable models and the so-called split . All are suitable for homes, but there are differences between them.


Window air conditioning is generally cheaper.
Window air conditioners are generally cheaper and simple to install, especially if the wall gap already exists.

However, this device has less cooling capacity and can be noisy. Measured in BTU/h, the power of this type of air conditioner only reaches 30,000 BTUs.

Because of this, this type of appliance is ideal for smaller environments and where changes to the façade are allowed.

The portable air conditioner, on the other hand, is one in which the hose that comes out of the device is placed in the window. This type can be easily transported from one environment to another.


Building facade with window air conditioning.
Window air conditioning, in addition to being exposed on the façade, has recommended power for small rooms.

Therefore, the portable air conditioner is indicated for those who cannot change the facade of the property or want to have a little more mobility, being able to take the device to other rooms.

However, the portable air conditioner has an even lower power of 14,000 BTU/h.

Split air conditioner would be a more modern version of window air conditioner. This is a model composed of two modules that greatly reduces noise.

Did you know that Split also has a higher power, reaching 80,000 BUT/h, being suitable even for larger environments.
But even though the hole for its installation is much smaller than needed for the window air conditioner, a technician needs to do the work that is more complex.

Check out the main differences between the most common types of air conditioners below:


window air conditioner    Portable    split
Recommended for    smaller environments    smaller environments    any environment
Noise    Yes    Yes    Smaller
Installation    Simple    It is not necessary    complex
Cost    Smaller    Smaller    Bigger


How to install window air conditioner?
As we have seen, a hole is needed in the facade of the building so that it is possible to install window air conditioning. Then, it is necessary to follow some recommendations so that the device is in the most suitable place for its full functioning.
According to experts, the device must be installed at a height between 1.50 m and 1.80 m from the floor.

Did you know that it is recommended that the air conditioner be installed with a small slope of 1cm at the base. This will help with water runoff.
Also, we recommend that you install the window air conditioner as centrally as possible on the wall.

Also note that if you decide to place more than one appliance on the same wall, you must keep a minimum distance of 1.5 m between them.

In addition, the hole in the wall must allow the perfect fit of a frame that will fix the appliance. The thickness of this structure must be at least 2.5 cm.

The side and top openings of the appliance must always face the outside and must be unobstructed so that the movement of air in the air conditioner can be carried out correctly.

What is the ideal temperature for window air conditioning?
Are you one of those who like an icy environment? Because it's important for you to know that using an extremely cold temperature in the air conditioner can not only do more for your health but for your pocketbook.
The fact is, extreme temperatures like too cold or too hot are never really healthy.

You should observe the ideal temperature both to preserve your health and not to increase your energy bill at the end of the month.

The Health Surveillance Agency (Anvisa) establishes that the ideal temperature for indoor air conditioning should be around 23°C to 26°C in the winter period.

During the summer, the window air conditioner should have the temperature adjusted between 20ºC and 23ºC.

How to preserve window air conditioner?
According to the technicians, to extend the life of air conditioning equipment, in addition to maintaining proper functioning, it is necessary to clean the filters and carry out periodic inspections.
Ideally, you should always follow the guidelines provided in the product manual. In addition, it is also important to turn the device on frequently and not just on hot days.

With this strategy you can keep the window air conditioner in good condition for longer.

However, if you leave the window air conditioner for a long time without working, it is recommended that you turn off the circuit breaker.

You need to clean the filter regularly.
You also need to clean the filter regularly. To do this, simply remove the filter and wash it under running water.

In months of little use of the window air conditioner, you should clean the filter every couple of months. In times of heavy use of the device, you can clean it once a month.

What are the advantages of window air conditioning?
As we have seen, the advantages of window air conditioning are many. In addition to being cheaper, this device also has a simple installation, as it has only one module.
In addition, the window air conditioner's compact size also facilitates installation.

A small space near the window is ideal to accommodate the air conditioner.

Another advantage of the window air conditioner is that it is the ideal device to acclimatize small rooms.

Furthermore, nowadays, there are different models, both the more traditional and the more technological ones.

On the other hand, this device also has some disadvantages. This is not the most aesthetically beautiful type of air conditioner.

Another disadvantage is that this device tends to produce a lot of noise and is not capable of cooling a very large room.

Below, you can see the main advantages and disadvantages of window air conditioning:

Benefits

• Great value for money
• Simple installation
• Efficient for smaller environments
• Variety of models

Disadvantages

• It is displayed on the facade of the property
• produces noise
• Doesn't cool big places

How much does window air conditioner cost?
The price of window air conditioners varies widely depending on the brand, size and technologies and functions.
In general, you will find window air conditioners costing between R$800 to R$3.6 thousand.

• Of course you don't need to buy the most expensive one. Your choice will depend, among other factors, on the technology of the device and the size of the room you need to cool.
• Where to buy window air conditioner?
• You will find window air conditioning for sale in department stores and hypermarkets such as Lojas Americanas, Casas Bahia and Carrefour.
• Still, our recommendation is that you make your purchase at online stores such as Amazon Brazil.

This way, you will have more options of models to choose from besides purchasing the window air conditioner from the comfort of your home.

Purchasing Criteria: What To Look For When Choosing Window Air Conditioner
As we have seen, before buying a window air conditioner you need to have a hole in the front of the property or make sure you are authorized to make that gap.

Once that's done, it's time for you to choose the best window air conditioner model, among the many that are available today in the market.

Therefore, it is essential that you know the technical differences between the devices. Therefore, we have selected for you the main factors that should be taken into account before buying the best window air conditioner:

• power
• Dimension
• Speed
• Air flow
• energy efficiency

Below, we will explain each of these factors in detail so that you can make the best decision and acquire the ideal window air conditioner.

power
The first factor you should take into account before investing in window air conditioners is the power of the appliance.

The power of the air conditioner will determine the cooling capacity. And, as we have seen, this power is measured in BTU (British Thermal Unit or, in free translation, British Thermal Unit).

As we have seen, compared to other types of air conditioners, the window air conditioner has a limit of up to 30,000 BTU. But you can also find devices that have low power, 7,000 BTU, for example.


The power of the air conditioning depends on several factors such as the area of ​​the room, the number of windows that allow sunlight and the number of people who frequent the space.

To give you an idea, experts point out that in homes it is recommended to use window air conditioning with power ranging from 9,000 to 18,000 BTU.

The ones with lower power are more recommended for rooms and rooms that are not too big and don't have much heat or sun.

A good average, however, is to consider between 600 and 800 BTU per square meter. Thus, in a 15m² room, for example, a device of at least 9,000 BTU must be installed.

The 21,000 BTU window air conditioning models are ideal for areas up to 35 m².

Dimension
Next, we recommend that you take into account the size of the device. This information is important both for the measurements of the hole in the wall and for the sake of aesthetics.

In general, the height of the device will vary between 30 and 47 cm. The width, on the other hand, can vary between 30 and 66 cm depending on the model.

Remembering that the measure of the span where the window air conditioner will be installed, it will have to have a few more centimeters to accommodate the support grids.

Speed
Another factor you should check before purchasing your window air conditioner is the amount of speed available.

The speed of the air conditioner will determine the force with which the cooled air will exit the unit.

In general, you can opt for models that offer two or more speed options. The most common are high and low speeds.

But here you can also choose models that also have the ventilation mode, which has a different speed.

Air flow
Airflow is another factor we recommend you take into account when choosing the best window air conditioner.

Did you know that depending on which model you choose, you will be able to find ones where the air can be directed in up to six different directions.
Some models also have an air renewal system, allowing the exchange of air, dissipating smoke and odors from the environment.

energy efficiency
Finally, don't forget to note the energy efficiency level of the appliance.

This is because energy savings are not defined by the type of air conditioning, but by the indication that Inmetro makes on the product.

Thus, you should check the consumption of window air conditioning by checking the Procel seal that is affixed to the product.

This classification is done through letters ranging from A to D, with the letter A indicating that the product is more economical.

How to choose the ideal wall air conditioner

Spent hours surfing the internet in search of the best air conditioning for your home and still full of doubts? Calm down, we'll help you with the 5 steps to buying the perfect air conditioner .

1st step: know where the device will be installed
It seems obvious, but many people buy air conditioning without knowing exactly where it will be installed. Before starting the research, it is important to know which wall will receive the device; if your building allows alterations to the façade; whether any reforms will be necessary for the placement of an energy source close to the installation site or for the passage of pipes.

Having these points defined, your choice will be easier and more assertive.

2nd step: measure the environment in which it will be
Another important point is to check the measurements of the room and the wall where the air conditioner will be installed. This measure will help to choose the ideal power and also to install the product in the best way.

split air conditioning
The split air conditioner must be installed at least 2.3m from the ground and 25cm from any obstacles.

• window installation
• window air conditioning
• The window model needs to be between 1.5 to 1.8 meters from the ground and be at least 50cm away from the corners of the room.

Furthermore, it is always ideal to choose an air conditioner that has the proper BTU for the size of the room in which it will be installed. Check out the table below:

3rd step:  calculate the required BTUs
Choosing the correct power for the air conditioning is essential to ensure the cooling or heating of the room where it will be installed. This power is measured by BTUs.

It's no use buying an air conditioner with low power for the room thinking about saving energy, because the cooling will not be enough. In the same way, buying air with more power than necessary will not freeze the environment faster, but only generate more energy consumption.

To make this calculation you must count 600 to 800 BTUS per square meter. 600 for environments with low incidence of sun and 800 for those that take a lot of sun. The formula is as follows: (600 x environment footage) + 600 or (800 + environment footage) + 800. But, to make it even easier, we have separated some examples in the table below:

Environment footage    Morning sun    Sun during the day or in the afternoon
Up to 10m²    Up to 7,500 BTUS/h    Up to 7,500 BTUS/h
15m²    10,000 BTUs/h    10,000 BTUs/h
20m²    12,000 BTUS/h    12,000 BTUS/h
25m²    12,000 BTUS/h    15,000 BTUS/h
30m²    15,000 BTUS/h    18,000 BTUS/h
40m²    18,000 BTUS/h    21,000 BTUS/h
50m²    21,000 BTUS/h    30,000 BTUS/h
Now, if you want 100% accuracy on this definition, visit our BTU calculator .

4th step: energy consumption
Nobody wants an air conditioner that uses a lot of energy, right? Therefore, it is worth keeping an eye on the Procel seal, there the air conditioning models are classified according to their energy consumption, with those with the A and B seal being the most economical.

5th step: define the model
After defining the more technical issues, you must choose which model to buy. Currently three dominate the market: split, window and portable .

split air conditioning
The split air conditioner is more modern, sophisticated and silent, in addition to being more economical compared to the window model. Composed of two units, one internal and the other external, it requires a small reform for the passage of its piping, but it can be installed in any environment.

window air conditioning
But the air conditioning window is cheaper and compact, since your compressor and other components are in the same unit. It doesn't need major renovations to install, just a niche in the wall with an exit to the outside of the house. Its only downside is that it produces a little more noise.

Reverse air conditioning
The air conditioning inverter provides more comfort because your system does it work constantly offering unrivaled thermal comfort, after all they do not get off and on until it reaches the ideal temperature, this also causes them to be 60% more economical than the conventional ones. Another benefit of this air conditioning model is that it is more sustainable than the others, as the gas used by it is R410a, which is more economical and sustainable than the others.

portable air conditioning
Portable air has the conveniences of portability, easy installation and zero refurbishment. It works well in environments up to 20 m² and should be placed close to a window. The problem with this model is its size and high power consumption.

Hot and cold air conditioning:

• This model is great for those who live in regions where temperature fluctuations are frequent, after all, hot and cold air conditioning not only cools but also has the function of heating the environment in which it was installed. So if you're the type who wants to enjoy the device all year round, it's a great option.

Step 6: prioritize device benefits over price
We know that price is a decision factor when making any purchase, but when we talk about an appliance, which will stay with you for many years, we must take into account other factors.

In relation to the air conditioning, it is worth focusing on all its functions, in addition to decreasing or increasing the temperature, which the device has. They range from purifying the air to decreasing humidity.

It is also worth investing in models that provide greater energy savings, after all, there is no point in buying a cheaper product that will make your electricity bill skyrocket.

But if you are still in doubt and want a little help to buy your appliance, check out our post where we tell you what is the best air conditioning for your home .

HOW TO REPLACE AN AC CONDENSER FAN

When the AC system needs extra help to cool the condenser, the AC condenser fan turns on. Most modern cars are equipped with double electric fans. One will be for the radiator the other is for the condenser. The condenser fan is used to blow air through the condenser while the car is stationary or at low speeds, which allows the AC to remain at the same temperature inside the vehicle.

Without the condenser fan, the AC system may stop working. This is because the pressure becomes too high if the refrigerant is not cooled from a hot gas to a liquid. The car's computer detects that the pressure is rising too high and disables the AC system. This article will cover how to replace the condenser fan on most vehicle models. The fan should only be replaced if it has been diagnosed as needing replacement.

Part 1 of 3: Determine if Condenser Fan Is Faulty

Necessary materials

• Pressure gauge set
• Owner's manual

Step 1: Check Condenser Fan Operation . Start the engine and check under the hood.

Locate the fan sets. One will be for the radiator and the other for the condenser. In some cases, you may need to consult your owner's manual to differentiate them.

With AC on, the condenser fan should be on when the vehicle is idling. If the fan is not turned on, it may need to be replaced.

Step 2: Check Fan Relay . If the condenser fan relay does not turn, it may not be receiving power.

This could be due to the fan relay. Check the substation relay box. There are two options: test the relay and verify that it is working properly or replace the relay with a known working relay and see if the fan turns on.

If the fan now turns on, the relay will need to be replaced.

Step 3: Check the AC system pressures . The gauge assembly will need to be connected to the vehicle.

The blue hose will be installed in the low side port. The high side will be installed in the high pressure port.

The readings found will be compared to the graph for reference. These are general readings listed on the chart; consult the owner's manual for your specific vehicle. If the high and low side pressures are not within spec for your vehicle, then the AC system may have a fault.

Attention : The pressure inside the AC system can be extremely high and can cause serious injury. If you are unsure how to use a gauge set to check AC pressure, leave it to the professionals.

Part 2 of 3: Removing the Condenser Fan

Necessary materials

• Basic socket set
• eye protector
• condenser fan
• Owner's manual

Step 1: Remove electrical connection . The first step will be to disconnect the electrical connectors found on the condenser fan.

On some vehicles, the fan is connected to the radiator fan assembly and they must be removed together. If this is the case, the radiator fan connector must also be disconnected. Unplug the electrical connector and move to a safe location.



Step 2: Remove the mounting screws . At this point, all that's in the way of removing the fan should be the mounting screws.

If any other parts are preventing removal of the fan, this must be done before the mounting screws are removed. How much is removed depends on the make and model; consult the owner's manual for your specific vehicle.

Remove the top and bottom mounting screws, if equipped. Carefully slide the fan assembly up and out of the vehicle now.

Step 3: Install the new condenser fan assembly . With the condenser fan assembly removed, now is the time to replace any parts that can be reused.

After the reused parts are replaced, the fan assembly will be installed on the reverse of removal. Gently slide the assembly down into its mounting location being careful not to break the fan assembly or damage the radiator.

Once the mount is in place, the mounting screws can be installed and tightened to specification.

Step 4: Connecting the electrical connection . Once the condenser fan is installed and in its final location, the previously removed electrical connector will need to be installed.

Connect the electrical connection to any fan removed and make sure the connector is properly seated.

Part 3 of 3: Checking the Condenser Fan for Proper Operation
Step 1: Make sure the fan is turned on . After all repairs have been completed and the work examined, it is now time to test the fan again.

Start the vehicle and turn the AC on to the coldest setting. The condenser fan should now be on. If the fan assembly does not turn on, inspect the work performed and make sure there are no loose connections.

The fan assembly must connect with AC when the engine is idling. If not, further diagnosis may be needed.

Replacing the condenser fan assembly can be an easy task to restore the ac system to proper functioning. If the condenser fan assembly is left unattended for too long, it can even cause the vehicle to overheat. Taking care of this issue will not only provide comfort while driving, it will also keep the vehicle in proper working condition. Be sure to have an inspection performed if you notice your car popping up while the AC is on.

How to choose air conditioning with the right capacity?

BTU stands for British Thermal Unit , or British Thermal Unit . It determines the cooling power of your air conditioner. To better understand how the air conditioning capacity is calculated , it is necessary to know that 1 BTU is the amount of cold required to reduce the temperature of half a liter of water by 0.56 ºC.

To scale the measure for physical spaces, in m², a calculation is made taking into account the density and weight of the water. In practice this will affect the size of the space where your air conditioner will be installed. The more BTUs it has, the greater the environment that the device will cool down.

But there are also other factors that you should take into account when purchasing, as the BTU of the air conditioner varies depending on whether the c receives sun in the afternoon or throughout the day. For you to have no complications when choosing the ideal air conditioning BTU, check out our indications:

Smaller rooms, usually bedrooms, will often get a smaller air conditioner like the Springer Midea QCI078BB , for example. But of course the air conditioning BTU will depend on other factors, as you saw in the table above.

Pay attention to the exposure of this room to the sun and also remember that even the amount of people and electronic devices present in large quantities in the environment can interfere with the air conditioning flow.

With the right amount of BTU, the air conditioner consumes less energy
Knowing how to calculate the amount of BTUs indicated for the environment where you intend to install the air conditioning is important to make sure it will be able to cool the place. But it is also not recommended to choose a model with more power than necessary.

This is because using a device with very high power can increase electricity consumption. And you probably don't want to do that, right? The table above helps you find the ideal air conditioner for each room you want to cool off. Also, check out other tips to consume less energy when using the air conditioner:

• Opt for an Inverse model , which uses up to 70% less energy than conventional appliances;
• Look for an air conditioner that has the Procel A seal for energy efficiency;
• Use Sleep Mode at night. It guarantees thermal comfort without consuming too much light;
• Keep doors and windows tightly closed to prevent cold air from "outing" the room;
• Remember to clean the filter frequently to avoid overloading the device.

With all these tips, you can now conveniently choose your new air conditioner, whether it is a window model , split type or with an inverter motor , since here we have many models for you to check and compare prices!

Understand the Evaporative Cooling Process

From the intake of outside air to the air distribution process.

• What is the Evaporative Cooling Process?
• It is the process by which air is cooled through the evaporation of water.

How does the process work?
Evaporative cooling happens when warm air comes into contact with colder water, causing it to evaporate, cooling and humidifying the air.


Inside the climate control the evaporative cooling process is as simple as the formation of fresh sea breeze. As the outside air passes through the evaporative panel, the water removes the heat making the air cool, which can now be transferred to different types of environments providing a continuous flow of air.


Where are they used?
Evaporative air conditioners are widely used in industries, supermarkets, gyms and places where constant renewal and air circulation is required. They are recommended for large places such as sheds and stocks or even for smaller places such as industrial kitchens, restaurants and general commerce.

What are the benefits of the Evaporative Climatizer?
With functions that help air circulation, it has different benefits.

Ecological & Healthy
 
Evaporative coolers promote constant air renewal by eliminating pollutants such as smoke, dust and odors, helping to reduce respiratory problems.

Discover the main advantages of evaporative cooling now!

Evaporative cooling is an alternative to regular air conditioning that has shown several benefits.

Both with regard to its functioning and the consequences for health and the environment, the truth is that the air conditioner is a very advantageous option.

The air conditioning is very efficient in air conditioning and much needed in almost all of Brazil, given its tropical climate, and even in the colder regions also record high temperatures at times very hot.

However, this equipment brings some problems such as the drying out of the environment, which is even worse in winter, a naturally drier season.

As a result, people's health problems remain in the environment for longer.

Are you thinking of purchasing equipment to keep the temperature of your environments more comfortable?

Understand why evaporative climate control is a great option:

What are the problems caused by air conditioning?
The cool, dry air from this equipment causes irritation in the nose and throat.

As air conditioning requires closed environments, it favors the proliferation of viruses, bacteria, mites and fungi, as it limits air circulation.

Furthermore, the thermal shock caused by the sudden change in temperature can cause a runny nose, tachycardia, facial paralysis and, in more extreme cases, even cardiac arrest.

What are evaporative air conditioners?
Evaporative climatizers are equipment that use water evaporation as a temperature control mechanism.

To evaporate, water needs to absorb heat from the environment and, as a result, reduces the temperature of the medium.

The equipment basically consists of:

• A fan;
• A water reservoir;
• A bomb;
• An evaporative panel, also called a beehive, formed by sheets of high quality kraft paper.

How does evaporative cooling work?
The pump takes the water from the reservoir to the top of the panel (beehive), causing it to flow throughout the panel, which becomes wet.

A channel helps distribute water evenly across the panel.

Located just in front of the panel, the fan pulls hot air which, when passing through the panel, evaporates the water and reduces its temperature, causing it to return cooled to the room.

When the non-evaporated water falls back into the reservoir, it is again evaporated and pulled to the top of the panel, continuing the cycle.

A buoy, equivalent to those used in water tanks, is useful to keep the reservoir level constant.

What temperature does it produce?
Unlike common air conditioning, with an evaporative climate control, the final temperature is not defined by the equipment.

It mainly depends on the conditions of the surrounding environment.

There is something called air saturation, which is the air's ability to absorb water vapor.

Dry air has its capacity for saturation more extended, that is, it needs more moisture in the air, presence of water vapor, to saturate.

You already know how the evaporative air conditioner works , now imagine that, in a dry environment, the air has greater power to give heat to the water, so that it evaporates.

This means that it returns cooler to the environment, given its greater saturation capacity.

Thus, in dry and hot environments, with a relative humidity of around 30%, a temperature of 37ºC can be reduced by 11ºC.

On the contrary, in humid environments, the air already saturated with water vapor does not have much potential to cause the evaporation of water from the climate control system, and has a lower temperature reduction.

Therefore, in these environments, depending on the temperature, the reduction is between 2.5ºC and 3ºC.

What are the advantages of evaporative climate control?
The evaporative cooling system has several advantages , including:

• It does not release water droplets in the environment and can be used in almost all types of environment;
• It promotes the renewal and cleaning of the air, in addition to humidifying it, which is a benefit for people who have respiratory allergies and live in dry climates;
• It has low consumption and maintenance cost, consuming up to 90% less energy than an air conditioner;
• It contributes to sustainability because, in addition to low consumption, the evaporative panel is recyclable, as it is made of paper;
• It doesn't need closed environments to work.
• How does temperature control influence productivity?
• Air conditioning in dairy farms increased milk production by 9.6%.

Cooling the environment for dairy cows makes them rest more, becoming less stressed and producing more.

This example of increased productivity is similar to the one seen around us.

People are less productive in environments with extreme temperatures, for both cold and heat.

Creating a comfortable environment for employees increases their work productivity.

The low noise level of this system also helps to reduce stress. In industries, excess heat can cause dehydration, cramps and exhaustion.

In gyms , air conditioning improves the breathing of customers, as it humidifies the environment instead of drying it out, as does the air conditioning.

As it does not need closed environments, it also avoids thermal shocks, as it does not greatly reduce the temperature.

In stores , a climate-controlled environment helps to increase sales. In a clothing store, for example, the customer will feel more comfortable trying on several pieces if the temperature is mild, not sweating with each change.

Another reason is that it is not necessary to keep the doors of your establishment closed, which is more inviting to your audience, avoiding leaving them closed due to the operation of the air conditioning.

• What are the precautions with the installation of the evaporative climate control?
• Although the evaporative cooling system does not have restrictions on the type of environment, some precautions need to be taken for the installation and maintenance of the air conditioners.

One of the most common mistakes is thinking that your cooling works like an air conditioner.

Its main objective is to provide a comfortable thermal sensation and constantly renewed air in the environment.

Before installing the system, you should hire a specialist cooling project engineer.

A poorly done design or incorrectly sized equipment does not achieve the expected results, and this often causes the faulty blame to fall on the evaporative solution.

One of the most important points, perhaps the main one, to think about the project is that, for the evaporative system to work efficiently, the environment must contain air outlets, such as windows, doors or exhaust fans and they must be compatible with the inlet flow .

Ideally, the air conditioner is built into the wall, to pull in outside air, making it circulate throughout the room and then leave.

If the room is completely closed, the only effect will be increased humidity.

• Does the humid climate hinder the functioning of the evaporative system?
• Another mistake is to think that coastal cities, considered to be naturally humid, are not suitable for the use of the evaporative system.

Humidity is a determining factor for the system's efficiency, but so is the temperature: the higher it is, the more moisture the air can retain, which makes the system work perfectly.

You should also pay attention to the water tank. If it is poorly sealed, it becomes suitable for mosquito breeding.

When turning off the system, it is necessary to dry the panel with a fan. Moisture favors the development of fungi and bacteria, which invade the interior of the environment.

Kitchen cabinet: 10 tips on how to choose yours

The kitchen cabinet is the protagonist of the decoration. Its function within the room is to store supplies and utensils in an organized manner.

It's been some time since the kitchen stopped being a hidden space inside the house and became an extension of the living area. In this room, residents prepare meals and welcome guests. When furnishing and decorating the space, one of the most important decisions is to define the best closet model.

There are several kitchen cabinet models, which differ in terms of size, price, materials and style. The choice of furniture needs to take into account the needs of the residents and also the other elements that make up the environment.

Buying a closet considering only the aesthetics is not enough. The resident needs to choose a piece of furniture proportional to the size of their kitchen and also consider the amount of items that need to be stored.

Tips for Choosing Kitchen Cabinet
To choose a perfect kitchen cabinet, you should consider furniture that promotes organization and makes everyday activities simpler. We have selected some tips for you to make the right decision. Look:

1 – Calculate the budget
Before planning any kitchen decor you need to consider the budget available. The closet cannot compromise the entire budget if the room does not have the other furniture and appliances.

2 – Consider the position of the sink, refrigerator and stove
It is not always possible to change the position of the sink, stove and refrigerator. This is especially true in apartments, where kitchens are smaller. Therefore, to find the ideal closet, consider the measurements of the appliances before defining the room layout.

Consider the arrangement of appliances and the sink

3 – Understand the function of each space in the kitchen
The refrigerator and the furniture around it take on the storage function inside the kitchen. The sink is the place to prepare food, so the counter must be free. Essential cooking accessories should be located near the stove.

In a linear kitchen, furniture and appliances are aligned in space. However, if the room has an L-shape, it is very important to install furniture that takes advantage of the corners.

4 – Define the best type of closet
If the budget is high, it's worth betting on the purchase of a planned kitchen cabinet. This furniture, with a contemporary look, is custom-made and takes advantage of every inch of the environment. Planned furniture is especially favorable when the kitchen is small.

• The finished cabinet is another furniture option for those who are decorating the kitchen. It is manufactured using popular sizes, materials and finishes. Its price is usually much more affordable than the planned furniture.

5 – Know the measures
The measurements of each piece of furniture must be defined according to the available area in the kitchen. The volume of things that need to be stored must also be taken into account.

There are some measures considered “standard” that make planning the layout easier. The drawers under the sink are on average 60 cm deep and 95 cm high. It is recommended that this piece of furniture does not reach the floor, as this can make cleaning the kitchen difficult.

Overhead cabinets don't always have to go to the ceiling, especially when the residents of the house aren't that tall. As for the size of the modules, the largest are 70 cm high and the smallest 40 cm. Depth also has a standard measurement of 35 cm.

The distance between the sink and the overhead cabinet should be between 60 cm and 70 cm.

6 – Consider the colors
To favor the feeling of spaciousness, it is recommended to include a white cabinet in the decoration. The paint on the walls should also be light. However, there are other kitchen cabinet colors that are on the rise and deserve to be considered, such as deep green, navy blue, gray, yellow and black and white.

The colorful furniture leaves the kitchen with a more fun air, while the wooden furniture fulfills the role of leaving the environment with a rustic and welcoming air.

7 – Choose a material compatible with the need
Kitchen cabinets are usually made with basically two types of materials: wood and stainless steel. The first option has the advantage of being long-lasting and enabling various forms of finishing, however, it is not always able to adapt to a humid environment.

Stainless steel gives the decor a more contemporary feel, in addition to offering resistance to the busy routine of the kitchen.

Those looking for quality when decorating the kitchen should not consider buying a laminated cabinet.

8 – Aim at a style
The cabinet chosen to decorate the kitchen needs to be compatible with the style of the decor. For example, if the intention is to create a functional and modern environment, then furniture with a lot of sculpted details is not recommended. In contrast, an old-fashioned cabinet looks nice in a kitchen with rustic decor.

9 – Prioritize the organization
The cabinet structure must provide conditions to organize the kitchen. It is essential that the furniture has well-defined divisions, such as shelves, drawers, drawers and niches with doors.

The best models of kitchen cabinets are those that have cabinets with doors or trundles, drawers and overhead modules. See below what to store in each part of the closet:

• Drawers with greater depth: serve to store trays, pans and molds. They are also useful for setting up a food pantry.
• Drawers: suitable for storing cutlery, dish towels and placemats. To make life easier in the kitchen, they should be placed close to the stove.
• Overhead cabinets: suitable for storing plates, glasses, cups and other dishes that need to be always at hand. At the top, you can place less-used utensils and some decorative objects (but that's only if the furniture doesn't reach the ceiling).
• Upright cabinets : upright cabinets are perfect for enjoying every corner of the room. They are used to store the rest of the dishes and small appliances, such as a toaster, coffee maker and sandwich maker.
• The basic rule for organizing the kitchen cabinet is to divide the space and store objects in groups.

10 – Consider your situation in the property
If you live in a rented house or apartment , the suggestion is to get a kitchen cabinet model that can be reused later if you move. In this case, it is not worth investing in custom furniture.
