Do you suffer from the heat at night and are looking for a solution to sleep well? For this, would you like to equip yourself with the best air conditioning system?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Far from the dangers that traditional air conditioning can represent, we may have THE solution that will allow you to sleep at your ideal temperature, summer and winter!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Air conditioning: what are the health risks?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Have you ever had a sore throat or a migraine after a night in a hotel? Try to recall the situation: chances are the room was equipped with an air conditioning system!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If these symptoms are common when using an air conditioner, they are not the only ones… Nor the most serious!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Allergies and ENT disorders<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Everyone knows that an air conditioner blows cool air into a room, and even cool or warm air in the case of reversible air conditioning. However, air conditioners are often dust traps for several reasons: frequently installed high up, they are not always within arm’s reach. Their blades can also be too tight to slide in a duster, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This setup is far from ideal, especially if you suffer from allergies<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Moreover, air conditioners are also responsible for drying out the air<\/strong>. In the case of allergies, they could then worsen the symptoms. For a person without allergies, excessively dry air can also cause similar discomfort: weakened nasal mucous membranes, sore throats and tonsillitis, colds and sinus infections…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Air conditioning and dry air could therefore lead to uncomfortable awakenings…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Circulation des virus<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
The COVID-19 health crisis has raised concerns about the use of centralized air conditioning during an epidemic. Although this topic is subject to debate, air conditioning could facilitate the circulation of viruses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recycling of air<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Air circulation between different rooms<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Propulsion of droplets in case of coughing or sneezing
In conclusion, cooling down: good, not getting sick: better!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

Air conditioner in a bedroom: the collateral damage<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Aside from health problems, air conditioning brings mechanical and environmental constraints<\/strong> and can also negatively affect sleep<\/strong>. Let’s focus on these effects that are often overlooked!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Time-consuming and expensive<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
As mentioned earlier, an air conditioner needs to be carefully maintained to limit dust emissions. Maintenance is also necessary to ensure its proper functioning. For example, some air conditioners need to be recharged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And all this comes with energy costs! Energy-intensive traditional air conditioners can quickly increase your bills…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Owning such a device can therefore quickly consume time and money\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Harmful effects on the environment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
When we talk about recharging an air conditioner, we mean refrigerant gas. Besides the risk of gas leaks in your home, these are greenhouse gases being released outside! Moreover, cooling air is not a trivial task. Producing cool air requires expelling… hot air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When expelled outside, this hot, gaseous air raises significant environmental concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Noise disturbances and sleep disorders<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

If you have ever spent an entire night with an air conditioner running, you may have been disturbed by its noise! Indeed, you would be lucky to find a silent air conditioner! This continuous background noise throughout the night can: – cause difficulty falling asleep – lead to nocturnal awakenings – trigger migraines and headaches during the night All of this can result in nighttime irritation and significant fatigue upon waking\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
The ideal solution for a good night’s sleep would be to abandon the idea of traditional air conditioning and seek a risk-free cooling solution that is suited for sleep.
\u2193\u2193<\/strong> Here is that air conditioner! \u2193\u2193<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bed air conditioning: the solution for a good night’s sleep without air conditioning<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
What if instead of cooling an entire room, you only cooled your bed? And what if instead of cooling the air, you cooled water for a freshness that is closer to the body? This is the solution offered by the Climsom Canicule!
