Operation Instructions:
Cooler Location:
Place the cooler in front of an open door or window. Ensure that there is adequate cross –
ventilation in the room by leaving a door or window open opposite the cooler. Following these
guidelines will ensure your cooler will work as effectively as possible.
Not an Air Conditioner:
The evaporative air cooler is not an air conditioner as it does not use a compressor or refrigerant
gas. It should not be expected to cool as efficiently as a refrigerated air conditioner.
The recommended maximum relative humidity level is 60% or less, which allows a noticeable
temperature decrease. The temperature decrease will be greater in drier climates because higher
evaporation occurs when the humidity is low.
The evaporative air cooler should not be used in enclosed spaces. It must be kept level and there
must be water in the water tank. The room should have doors and windows opened to allow free
air flow. The evaporative air cooler works best when placed near an open window, so that outside
air is drawn into the evaporative air cooler, the air circulates in the room, and then exits via the
door. The maximum cooling effect is felt when a person is in the flow of air coming out of the
evaporative air cooler.
The evaporative air cooler can also be used to humidify dry air during cool weather. To be used
for humidification the windows and doors should be closed to allow the humidified air to
accumulate. The evaporative air cooler is not an air conditioner as it does not use a compressor
or refrigerant gas. It should not be expected to cool as efficiently as a refrigerated air conditioner.
NOTE: When the product is used for the first time the Honeycomb Cooling Media will have an
odor which will dissipate in a week or so of initial use.
