Symphony DiET 22i Tower Air Cooler Review

Symphony DiET 22i Tower Air Cooler

An air cooler keeps indoor temperatures cool. It infuses the air with moisture and reduces dryness. It is effective in hot and arid weather. In India, when the Loo blows during summer, an air cooler can offer much needed respite from the burning hot air. It is less expensive than an AC and safe for the environment.

In this segment we are going to introduce you to a top-rated room air cooler, the Symphony DiET 22i Tower air cooler. It has an advanced 5-stage air filtration system that removes impurities from indoor air. It is suitable for 150 square feet spaces and comes with a remote controller.

Let us do an in-depth study of the design and uses of the Symphony air cooler.

Design And Usage

The Symphony DiET 22i Tower air cooler is a powerful air cooler. It has a coverage area of 150 ft2 and is meant for small to medium-sized rooms with a volume of around 42 m3. It can be installed in bedrooms, studies, dorm rooms, shops, office cubicles and kids’ rooms. It is excellent for spot cooling and for cooling small areas inside a large room. You can place it next to your study or work table for personal use.

The air cooler is built with iPure technology. This technology not only cools the air but also purifies it. It uses an elaborate 5-stage filtration process to rid the air of contaminants. As the air enters the cooler, it first makes its way through a dust filter which does the preliminary filtration. It removes dust, pollen, lint, fur and hair. It also prolongs the life of the other, more sophisticated filters.

The second filter is a smell filter. It takes out odor-producing particles like pungent gases, cooking fumes and chemicals. The third filter is an allergy filter. It intercepts harmful allergy-inducing particles like pollen, dust and VOCs.

The fourth filter is a bacteria filter. It traps living microbes like bacteria, protozoa and viruses. The fifth and final filter to work upon the air is a honeycomb pad with a washable PM 2.5 filter. This filter roots out fine particulate matter like PM 2.5 and PM 10 which includes dust mites, spores, pollen, bacteria, smoke, smog, cigarette smoke, fine suspended dust and pet dander.

This honeycomb PM 2.5 filter is where the evaporation takes place. Hot air coming from outside reacts with the water in the cooling pads causing it to evaporate. Heat from the air is used up in the process and the air cools down. The filter is washable and reusable.

The air cooler has a cool flow dispenser mode for extra-chilled cooling. It has 3 variable fan speeds which you can adjust as per your need. There is a timer too. It lets you set the operation time for 1, 2 or 4 hours. The timer saves power and makes the appliance more eco-friendly. Power consumption of the device is relatively low. It consumes only 170 watts which is far less than an AC’s power requirement. In other words, it provides ample cooling without burning a hole in your pocket.

The Symphony DiET 22i Tower cooler has a 22-liter tank. You can use ice water or normal room temperature water as you like. It has an ice chamber for adding ice cubes. It has an automatic water level indicator and an empty water tank alarm. There is an inlet at the back for pouring in water. There are also two water outlets. One is a water drain plug at the bottom of the tank and the other an overflow outlet at the top of the tank.

A power cord winder is provided near the air inlet at the back. There is a mosquito net to prevent mosquitoes and other insects from breeding in the cooler water. This is a very useful feature as it keeps diseases and infections at bay.

The gadget has a System Restore function which remembers the last saved settings of the cooler. The auto-saved settings make it easier to handle the device and also save time. The pump of the air cooler is built with Dura Pump technology which enhances the performance of the pump and prolongs its service life. The circuit board has SMPS technology which shields it from sudden changes in current.

The cooler has a tall and slender body. It has a length of 300 mm, breadth of 330 mm and height of 943 mm. It fits narrow spaces and is best suited for rooms with space constraints. The device is portable and has strong castor wheels. It weighs just 8 kg and is easy to move around.

The louvers have an auto swing function that pushes the air out continuously in all directions. The blower has a diameter of 180 mm. It throws air across a distance of 30 feet which is very useful. It means every corner receives fresh cool air and the entire space is uniformly cooled.

The air cooler includes a full-function remote controller with a 7-hour timer. There is a built-in remote docking station on top of the cooler cabinet. It provides a designated place for storing the remote so it doesn’t get misplaced.

The appliance runs on inverter power during power cuts. For best performance, we recommend installing it in a room with adequate cross air circulation.
