Multi-component air-conditioning systems configuration, control and operation

A method for cooling ambient air by a hybrid air-conditioner device, the method comprising:

• sensing a plurality of environmental parameters of an environment by an environmental sensor via an ambient air sample;
• deciding whether to activate a plurality of cooling components of the hybrid air-conditioner device based on the environmental parameters sensed by the environmental sensor, whereby an ambient air is conditioned to a conditioned air by the cooling component that is activated, and the conditioned air may or may not by-pass the cooling component that is inactivated, wherein each of the cooling components is connected by a water channel so that water can circulate through the cooling components from one to another;
• and
• delivering the conditioned air to a desired space.
