Summer
is coming. Even with all the rainy days, the growing heat can be felt.
Temperatures are rising, AC units are working harder, and people are growing
more anxious to be indoors and stay cool. This is just one of the many reasons
to have a portable spot cooler. Spot coolers
are temporary units that cool surrounding areas quickly and effectively.
Whether you need a little extra boost air conditioning, or your primary air
conditioner has failed, a spot cooler comes in handy for a variety of locations
and reasons.
Business
As
temperatures rise, some industries and businesses require additional AC to keep
people and the environment safe. Warehouses are notorious for being
oppressively hot. Is some cases, this is normal. However, this can become a
risk for employees. As workers grow hotter and more uncomfortable, it becomes
harder to function well; work may slow, workers may make mistakes, and it
becomes a health risk.
The
same can be said for industrial facilities and construction areas. Heat and
humidity is more than unpleasant, it’s a risk to productivity and health. It
may also be problematic for some machinery.
The
equipment in large data centers, or offices which contain a significant amount
of computers, also require continuous cooling. This sort of equipment produces
heat as it functions, and a room full of these parts can heat noticeably, and
quickly. In generally higher temperatures, additional spot cooling can be
essential to maintain the equipment and prevent overheating, and thus repairs.
Offices usually have a central AC system, but a spot cooler provides air when
the main system fails or is shut off after hours.
Schools and Emergencies
Schools
also have their own central air conditioning units. Yet, summer months bring
additional heat, and in some locations the heat lasts into the fall. Spot
coolers are great for keeping students sufficiently cool in classrooms, whether
by supplementing the main AC system, or replacing it during a system failure.
Additionally, some temporary classrooms and buildings are not adequately
equipped with air conditioning units. Portable spot coolers are perfect for
those sorts of locations.
Centers
for medical care, whether a hospital or temporary emergency center, also must
keep patients and employees safe and comfortable in stressful conditions. Heat
aids the growth of bacteria and makes for a breeding ground for illness.
Hospitals have AC systems, but if those systems fail or the need extra cooling,
spot coolers are very useful. Additionally, these machines are excellent for
temporary emergency medical locations, such as those in hot, humid areas.
