Evaporative Cooling

Evaporative cooling is an economical way to cool. Air is cooled while being drawn across wet evaporative media. The movement of this fresh cooled air over the skin is what makes it feel cool. It is important when using an evaporative cooler in an enclosed space to have adequate exhaust by opening windows, doors, etc. Without an outlet to exhaust the air, humidity will build up in the enclosed space and the unit will not cool adequately. It is preferable to have an opening behind the unit to bring in fresh air and another opening accross the room to exhaust and help move the air.

Safety Rules

1. Unit must be in the Off Position and Unplugged from power receptacle when performing any maintenance.

2. To reduce the risk of electric shock, plug unit into a properly grounded 120 Volt A.C., 60 Hz receptacle.

3. To reduce the risk of electric shock, install only on a circuit protected with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI).

4. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of ﬁ re or electric shock, do not use this fan with any “solid-state

fan speed control device.”

Maintenance

WARNING: Before doing any maintenance be sure unit is unplugged.

Drain Unit

Note: To remove the media frame, ﬁ rst remove the screw located above the frame.

To drain the unit, remove the media frame and remove the rubber drain stopper from the bottom of the unit by pulling it out of the drain hole. The unit should be drained periodically to keep the water fresh. We recommend draining the unit once a week. Drain the water from the unit when it will not be used for an extended period.

Clean/Replace Evaporative Media

The evaporative media should be cleaned twice a season or when needed. To clean the media, rinse with clean water. Light scrubbing might be necessary. Be careful not to damage media. After about 2 years, or when it becomes clogged, the media will need to be replaced. To remove the media, press the end of the keeper stem to push it through the keeper disk (see ﬁ g. 4). This plastic disk will need to be removed in order to remove the media.

When replacing the evaporative media, install it so that the steeper

ﬂ ute angle of the media is sloping down towards the media frame (see ﬁ g. 4). Push the keeper stems through the media from the back of the

media frame and press the keeper disks onto the stems to secure the media in place.
