How CoolCompare makes money
CoolCompare is free for visitors. There is currently no active product-retailer affiliate programme. The business may earn from consented installer enquiries, clearly identified sponsorship and advertising on a restricted set of substantial publisher pages. Those relationships fund the database, calculators, source review and maintenance, but they do not turn commercial availability into editorial evidence.

Product links and affiliate status
CoolCompare does not currently earn commission from Amazon or another product retailer. Product cards lead to CoolCompare's own evidence, room-fit and comparison pages rather than an affiliate search.
If a retailer programme is introduced later, it must be labelled at the point of action and kept separate from product identity and editorial ordering. A current offer can appear only with the retailer, check time, item condition, price and known delivery charge.
Installer enquiries
A household can submit a project request only with explicit contact consent. CoolCompare may charge an installer or partner for a qualified lead or future subscription, but the form does not guarantee that an installer will respond, accept the project or offer the lowest price.
Installer email addresses are not exposed publicly. A profile cannot use a verified label until the stated certification and insurance evidence has been checked. Payment cannot substitute for verification, remove a legitimate complaint or guarantee directory position.
Advertising and sponsorship
Advertising is limited to approved publisher-content surfaces rather than search, error, query, comparison, form, alert, calculator or empty-data states. This reduces the risk that an advert is confused with a result or blocks the task a visitor came to complete. Advertising platforms may apply their own eligibility and delivery decisions.
Sponsored placements, if introduced, must carry a visible label. Sponsorship cannot secretly alter a product score or be described as independent editorial. We do not promise a manufacturer favourable coverage in exchange for samples, access or payment.
What payment cannot buy
Commission cannot create a rating, stock claim, price reduction, installer verification, review count or physical testing claim. Product ordering follows the method stated on the page. If current commercial coverage is incomplete, we say so rather than presenting one retailer as the whole market.
Safety notices and material corrections override normal commercial presentation. A retailer exit can be disabled while the product record remains available for research. Readers can inspect sources and report conflicts regardless of whether a commercial relationship exists.
How to interpret commercial pages
Check the exact model at the destination because retailer titles, bundles and sellers can differ. Confirm current price, delivery, return terms, warranty and stock before paying. Compare capacity and room need before using a lowest-price link; a cheap unsuitable unit is not good value.
CoolCompare does not currently claim complete retailer coverage or a guaranteed cheapest price. We publish the date and limitation of the data available, and we keep calculated running-cost or ownership scenarios separate from the commercial offer.
