Hydro-coolingWashable RX900 filter7 ambient colors
When the heat sets in and you are simply looking for a bit of cool air around you, the CLIMACOOL ARTIC offers a compact and easy-to-use solution. This personal air cooler measures approximately 14.5 x 16 x 17 cm: it sits on a desk, nightstand, or sideboard without taking up space. Its operation is based on hydro-cooling: ambient air is drawn in, passes through the water-soaked RX900 filter, and then exits through the front grille as a stream of refreshed air. Simply open the top flap, pour a little water into the tank, plug the device in, and turn it on. The ARTIC version stands out for its filter with detachable absorbent sections, which are easily removed for cleaning. Three ventilation speeds are offered, including a silent mode rated under 25 dB for summer nights, and an ambient light with 7 colors, fixed or random, illuminates the device in the evening. With a claimed operating range of approximately 10 m² and 6 to 8 hours of continuous freshness per refill, it accompanies your hot days from room to room.
The ARTIC principle
Hydro-cooling, freshness born from water
Evaporative cooling exploits a simple physical phenomenon: to change from a liquid state to vapor, water requires energy, which it draws in the form of heat from the surrounding air. Air that passes through a wet medium therefore comes out slightly cooler. This principle, used for centuries in hot regions, is what the CLIMACOOL ARTIC implements on a desktop scale.
Inside, a slatted cartridge houses the RX900 filter, composed of absorbent strips that soak up water from the tank. The fan pushes warm air through these damp slats before releasing it through the front grille. Unlike a compressor-based air conditioner, the device contains no refrigerant gas and requires no external venting: it provides localized freshness, felt mainly in close proximity, rather than a drop in temperature for an entire room.

A white and anthracite cube
The ARTIC adopts a small cube silhouette with softened edges: white sides, an anthracite gray hood, and a wide slatted grille on the front, which reveals the cooling cartridge. On top, the tank flap lifts with a finger for refilling, next to the controls.
In the evening, the device transforms into an ambient nightlight: red, purple, blue, yellow, green, white… seven shades to choose from, or a random scrolling mode for a more fun atmosphere. A gentle way to combine freshness and soft lighting in a bedroom or living room.

Plug in and turn on the device, then choose the appropriate speed: silent mode at night, more powerful during the day.
4
Choose your light from the 7 colors or the random mode, and orient the front toward you.

Good to know: the CLIMACOOL ARTIC is an evaporative air cooler. It creates a zone of freshness around you, within a claimed radius of approximately 10 m², not air conditioning for the whole house. For maximum comfort, place it nearby, facing you.
Freshness tip: fill the tank with very cold water from the refrigerator to accentuate the cooling sensation within the first few minutes. Ventilate the room from time to time: an evaporative cooler is more effective in air that is not already saturated with humidity.

Precautions: use only clean water and empty the tank if the device remains unused for several days to avoid unpleasant odors. Always unplug it before filling or handling the filter. Place it on a flat and stable surface, away from electronic devices sensitive to moisture. Do not move it when the tank is full.

Frequently asked questions
Does the CLIMACOOL ARTIC replace an air conditioner?
No, and it is important to know this before purchasing. The CLIMACOOL ARTIC is an evaporative air cooler: it passes air through a wet filter to lower the temperature at the outlet. It creates a personal zone of freshness, ideal when facing you on a desk or near the bed, within a claimed radius of approximately 10 m². It contains neither a compressor nor refrigerant gas and does not cool an entire room like a fixed or mobile air conditioner with venting. It is a pleasant and economical supplement for hot days.
How do I fill the tank?
The tank is filled from the top: simply lift the flap located on the hood and pour the water directly, as shown in our photos. Use clean water, preferably cold, and do not exceed the designated level to avoid any overflow. Unplug the device before each refill. Once the water is poured, allow a few minutes for the RX900 filter to become saturated, then start the fan. Depending on the speed chosen, a refill allows you to enjoy approximately 6 to 8 hours of continuous freshness, according to the manufacturer's indications.
What is the RX900 filter?
The RX900 filter is the heart of the hydro-cooling system. It comes in the form of a slatted cartridge filled with absorbent strips that soak up the water from the tank. The warm air passes between these damp slats and exits cooled. The special feature of the ARTIC version is that these absorbent sections are detachable: they can be removed one by one from their support, as in our visuals, to be rinsed and left to dry. Simple maintenance that helps keep the air fresh and odor-free throughout the summer.
Is it noisy?
The CLIMACOOL ARTIC offers three ventilation speeds, with different advertised sound levels. Mode 1, the softest, is rated under 25 dB, which makes it suitable for a bedroom at night or for reading. Mode 2, under 40 dB, is well-suited for an office or teleworking. Mode 3, under 60 dB, provides a more sustained breeze during heatwaves, at the cost of more noticeable fan noise. You can choose the right balance between freshness and silence depending on the time of day.
What surface area can it cool?
The claimed operating range is approximately 10 m². Concretely, the ARTIC is designed for close-range use: on a desk facing you, on a bedside table oriented toward the bed, or on a coffee table near the sofa. It is in close proximity that the sensation of freshness is most distinct. In a large room, it will not lower the general temperature, but it will create a bubble of cool air where you are. Its compact size of approximately 14.5 x 16 x 17 cm makes it easy to move from one room to another.
What is the ambient light for?
The ambient light is a decorative bonus that transforms the device into a colored nightlight. You can choose from 7 fixed colors, such as red, purple, blue, yellow, green, or white, or activate a random mode that cycles through the shades. In a bedroom, a soft color helps with falling asleep while enjoying the coolness of the silent mode. In a living room or child's bedroom, the scrolling colors add a fun touch. The light remains ambient lighting and does not replace a reading lamp.
How do I maintain the CLIMACOOL ARTIC?
Regular maintenance ensures fresh and pleasant air. Empty the tank when you are not using the device for several days rather than letting the water stagnate. Occasionally remove the cartridge, detach the RX900 filter's absorbent sections, rinse them with clean water, and let them dry completely before putting them back in place. Wipe the exterior with a soft, slightly damp cloth—never under running water—and check that the front grille remains unobstructed. Remember to always unplug the device before any maintenance or refilling operation.
