<p data-start="220" data-end="601">No, an air curtain does <strong data-start="251" data-end="294">not cool a room like an air conditioner. Its primary function is to create a barrier of air at doorways or openings to <strong data-start="374" data-end="438">prevent warm air, dust, insects, or pollutants from entering a conditioned space. While an air curtain can help <strong data-start="490" data-end="548">reduce the loss of cool air from air-conditioned rooms, it does <strong data-start="558" data-end="587">not lower the temperature on its own.



<p data-start="603" data-end="818">Think of it as a <strong data-start="620" data-end="647">&ldquo;protective air shield&rdquo;: it helps maintain the efficiency of your AC system, reduces energy loss, and keeps indoor conditions comfortable, but it <strong data-start="770" data-end="815">does not replace actual cooling equipment.
