Specification

We now look at the features:

• 4-in-1 Functionality - The Igenix IG9704 Portable 4-in-1 Air Cooler is an air cooler, fan heater, humidifier and air purifier all-in-one. As an air cooler it works by passing warm air over cold water. As a fan heater the unit works towards your desired/input temperature. When in humidifier mode the unit increases the moisture in the air to protect against dry eyes/skin. And finally, in air purifier mode the unit removes particles from the air to make your living environment more comfortable.
• Suitability - The appliance works at its best in spaces up to 15 square metres in size, including kitchens, bedrooms, living rooms, dining rooms, pet rooms, conservatories, home offices, and more.
• Water Tank - The Igenix IG9704 has a 5 litre water tank which can be removed for easy filling/cleaning. For more effective cooling, simply add ice cold water. You can also add ice packs (not included) to keep the water's temperature down. Note that there's a low water level alarm when the tank is nearly empty.
• Three Fan Speeds - You can choose from three fan speeds to meet your preferences and the needs of the room.
• Controls - The on-board controls are easy to use. A remote control is included for more convenient use.
• Oscillation Mode - The appliance is capable of oscillating the air flow left/right in order to increase the target area.
• Timer - A handy 7.5 hour timer lets you run the appliance for a duration of your choosing before it automatically switches off.
• Portability - The unit is lightweight, compact (25.0cm x 33.6cm x 67.5cm) and has four castor wheels to aide with mobility.

Summary

In summary, the Igenix IG9704 is an excellent appliance with solid functionality in all four modes - air cooler, fan heater, humidifier and air purifier. We particularly like its wide ranging suitability as well as its large 6 litre water tank, three fan speeds, straightforward controls, remote control, oscillation mode and timer. We rate the Igenix IG9704 4-in-1 Portable Air Cooler 4 out of 5 stars.
