How to cool your home fast: Amazon shoppers are snapping up this £25 portable air conditioner to tackle the sizzling heatwave

Although thunderstorms and flooding have struck some parts of the UK, for many, the balmy temperatures have continued and show no sign of passing anytime soon.

So it comes as no surprise, that many shoppers are heading to Amazon to invest in an air-cooling system.

With a near-perfect average star rating of 4.8 out of 5, the ARESAT Portable Air Conditioner, which is now reduced by 29 per cent, has been a top-choice among Amazon customers.

Soaring in popularity, the portable air conditioner (PAC) – which is also a fan and dehumidifier – doesn’t cost much more than your standard fan at £24.99. 

It’s a smart investment if you’re struggling in the hot weather, don’t fancy spending big on a fixed home air conditioning unit, or your electric fan is no longer keeping your home cool and comfortable.

The cooling device pulls in hot dirty air and then cools it down via the fillable water tank. It’s a cheaper alternative to fixed units and uses less power, although it may struggle to cool a larger room.

With a handle for easy carrying and standing at under seven inches, it’s portable and the perfect size for use at home, at the office, travel and even outdoor activities. Say goodbye to a stuffy office and sticky bedroom.

The air cooler is easy to operate too. Simply fill with clean water, plug it into a USB port, power bank or laptop, and it will turn on, blowing cold and fresh air for up to 12 hours.

For those who haven’t yet taken the plunge and purchased an air conditioning unit for the home, other seasonal items being snapped up include fans, such as the sell-out Dyson fan.

Others have bought inflatable paddling pools and even cooling mats to ensure their furry friends keep cool and calm during the warm weather.
