No, an inline duct fan will not cool a room like an air conditioner. While both devices are used for air circulation, they function differently and serve different purposes.
An inline duct fan is typically used to improve air circulation within a ventilation system or to assist in moving air from one location to another. It helps with distributing conditioned air, removing stale air, or balancing airflow in ductwork. However, an inline duct fan does not have the capability to actively cool the air or lower the temperature of a room.
On the other hand, an air conditioner is specifically designed to cool the air in a room or enclosed space. It uses a refrigeration cycle to extract heat from the indoor air, cooling it down and reducing the temperature. Air conditioners have components like compressors, evaporators, and condensers that actively remove heat from the air and release it outside, resulting in a cooler indoor environment.
While an inline duct fan may help with air circulation and distribute cooled air from an air conditioner more effectively, it does not have the capacity to cool the air by itself. It is not designed to lower the temperature but rather to enhance airflow and ventilation within a system or space.
