Older coolers typically come with standard wood wool (grass) cooling pads, which degrade over time- algae, bags of dust, and dirt accumulate onto them, which makes them less effective. Wood grass is good for cooling, but you need to maintain it. Many coolers are now coming with different cooling pads- majorly known as Honeycomb pads.

Replacing your old grass pads with honeycomb pads is a straightforward and cost-effective way to upgrade your cooler. These pads are available online and in physical stores. You can find them on e-commerce sites like Flipkart and Amazon, with prices starting from as low as Rs 300 to Rs 400.
