This new French device promises to cool rooms faster and with up to five times less energy consumption than a traditional air conditioner. With the arrival of summer and the increase in electricity consumption, more and more people are looking for alternatives to cool their homes without spending too much. In this context, a new device developed in France has begun to gain prominence for offering a more economical, sustainable, and efficient option than traditional air conditioners.
This is Caeli Énergie, a domestic refrigerator that works with a different system than the conventional one and promises to reduce energy use by up to five times.
This appliance, created by a company founded in 2020, uses a natural cooling method that avoids refrigerant gases and does not require the installation of an external unit.
Its energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact make it an attractive alternative for those seeking more responsible consumption during the hot months.
How does the new French refrigerator that aims to replace air conditioning work?
Caeli Énergie uses adiabatic cooling, a system inspired by the natural evaporation of water. Its mechanism consists of passing warm air through a wet panel: during this process, the water evaporates and absorbs heat, generating a stream of cool air.
Unlike traditional equipment:
- It does not use refrigerant gases.
- It does not require a compressor or outdoor unit.
- It consumes much less energy.
Furthermore, the higher the outside temperature, the more efficient the cooling, which makes it particularly useful in hot areas or during heatwaves.
How much energy does it save compared to an air conditioner?
The manufacturer guarantees that Caeli Énergie can consume up to five times less energy than a traditional air conditioner. This can translate into significant savings on your monthly electricity bill, especially during the months of highest demand.
It also promises to reduce carbon emissions by up to 80%, a key point in comparison with systems that use refrigerant gases with a high environmental impact.
The device, known as Caeli One, was created by the French company Caeli Énergie.
What are the features of this new appliance?
The cooler focuses not only on efficiency but also on comfort:
- Cools spaces from 20 to 40 m².
- Oval and modern design.
- Quiet operation, similar to inverter models.
- Three modes: Smart, Eco and Boost.
- No construction or complex installation required.
The price is estimated to be around €2,500, including installation.
Why are many people looking for alternatives to air conditioning?
The launch of this technology also reopens the debate on the inefficient use of traditional air conditioning. For example: setting the thermostat below 24 °C or 25 °C does not speed up cooling, but significantly increases electricity consumption.
In addition, keeping rooms too cold can cause:
- Physical discomfort.
- Thermal maladjustment.
- Greater susceptibility to respiratory infections.
