Difference Between Blower and Exhaust Fan

1. Air throw

If it is a matter of air throw, there is more power in the blower cooler. Because the fan with the blower is a mechanism fan, it throws out the air by twisting it at one point in one place, we feel like the wind is coming very fast. The exhaust fan coolers can circulate the air, so we feel that the airflow is less than that. Talking about air throw, the air of the blower cooler is very strong.

2. Cooling

As I told you earlier, the air of a blower air cooler is a bit too much. So it seems to us that his cooling is getting too much. But nothing like this happens, the cooler with the blower blows air at one point, and then we feel that very strong wind is coming and it is cooling more. On the other hand, in the exhaust fan, the air is spread all around, so we feel that it is not cooling down much, but we get the same coolness as the blower and exhaust fan. In terms of cooling, the cooling is equal in both.

3. Noise Level

So the main important point is which of the two makes more noise. The Blower Cooler makes a lot of noise as I already told you that the blower Fan runs on a mechanism.

When blower.  When the air rotates inside the mechanism, a lot of noise is generated, but on the other hand, this does not happen in coolers with exhaust fans. If we talk about noise, then the cooler with a blower is much noisier than the cooler with an exhaust fan.

4. Design

The old exhaust fan cooler takes up a lot of space, but now the blower fan coolers in the market take up very little space with the vibration design. You get smart intelligent control features in blower coolers as compared to exhaust fan coolers like remote control, LCD display, water level indicator, and automatic louvre movement.

5. Efficiency

You get more calling efficiency in blower coolers as compared to exhaust fan coolers. The cooler with a blower blows air at one point. But in the cooler with the exhaust fan, the air flows all around, due to this the efficiency is less in the cooler with the blower. You get smart intelligent control features in blower coolers because of this also its efficiency is good.

6. Cooling Pads

The cooler with a blower comes with a honeycomb structure pad but the exhaust fan coolers come with a wood wool pad. The efficiency of a honeycomb pad is much better than a wood wool pad and a honeycomb pad has a long life.

7. Maintenance

The maintenance cost is high for the blower cooler. The reason is that there is a lot of machinery inside it. Compared to that, the maintenance cost of the exhaust cooler is very less because it has only one fan. Nothing happens in the name of maintenance.

After researching a lot on the web and after seeing customer reviews, I have selected a few coolers for you. I have told you about the Air cooler of all brands. I have told you about the specification of all the air coolers. I have also told you what are the advantages and disadvantages of these types of air coolers.

Final Thoughts

Friends, now you talk that who should take the floor cooler and who should take the exhaust fan cooler. As already told you, the cooler with the blower blows air at one point. If you have to get cooling done in a limited area, like you have a small shop or a small room and you have to take air only on yourself or take the air on maximum 2 people, then cooler with a blower is best for you.

The cooler with the blower makes noise but its air throw and cooling are also more. But friends, if you want to take a cooler for a big hall or for a big room, then take a desert air cooler with a fan. Because in this you get air all around and its noise level is also less.

If you want to take it for a small room, then you can take a cooler with a blower fan, on the other hand, if you need a big room or hall, then a cooler with an exhaust fan will be the best. I hope after reading this article completely, there will be no hesitation in your mind about whether you should take a blower cooler or an exhaust fan air cooler. We hope you find this information very useful.  I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your time reading this article about Which is the better blower or fan in the air cooler.
