Phuket – The Phuket International Airport has clarified over hot temperatures in the terminals after many people have complained.


Many people have complained on social media recently over hot temperatures inside the international terminal at the airport this week.

 

On Thursday (October 19th) the Phuket International Airport issued a clarification. They stated, “Following the issue, there are two chillers (compressor) inside the airport, one of the chillers had malfunctioned. This caused higher temperatures. There was also some leaking of refrigerant in the machine.”

If the actual indoor terminal temperature was 25.5C no one should be complaining, I suspect that the picture  in this article was not the actual terminal temperature, more like what it should be! 

Typical muppet show, someone needs to complain before they realise the temperature has gone up and they have a chiller out! BTW a chiller is not a compressor but with a chiller not working the compressor will overheat and should cut out!

Fly to a tropical country and expect it not to be hot ... hmm

 

Unless higher temp than outside ambient temp...

... STFU 

 

When did 26C/75F become hot.   Wait till it's 35C feels like 45C

I suspect that 75°F becomes hot when one goes from their air conditioned house, to their air conditioned car, to their air conditioned office, to their air conditioned car, to the air conditioned grocery store and back to their air conditioned house.... Welcome to America! lol
