₹14,990
The sizing rule nobody explains at the showroom is that suction should be roughly ten times your kitchen's volume per hour -- 1200 suits a kitchen of about 20 cubic metres, and buying more than you need only adds noise.
Full details →Who the Orient Electric Ultimo 50L Desert Air Cooler is for
Buy it if: Households in dry-climate regions such as Delhi, Rajasthan and central India, where evaporative cooling is effective and running cost matters.
Avoid it if: Anyone in a humid coastal city, where evaporative cooling adds moisture without meaningfully reducing perceived temperature.
Who the Faber 60cm 1200 m3/hr Auto-Clean Chimney is for
Buy it if: Anyone with a kitchen around 20 cubic metres who can duct to an external wall.
Avoid it if: Anyone who cannot duct outside -- recirculating a chimney through a carbon filter removes very little Indian cooking smoke.
