It is important to ensure that the water flow adjustment valve is properly adjusted when first starting the water flow in the Portacool evaporative cooler. Proper water adjustment should leave the pads saturated with water, but not flooded. Pads should appear wet. However, cascading amounts of water can actually reduce cooling efficiency.
MAINTENANCE & STORAGE MAINTENANCE 1) Keep the product clean to ensure peak operating performance. 2) The rugged, corrosion-resistant construction ensures low maintenance will be required. Daily Maintenance The pump should be turned off approximately 15 minutes before the fan is turned off. This will allow the cooling pads to dry out and extend their life.
TROUBLESHOOTING The Portacool evaporative cooler consists of three systems — the fan system, the electrical system, and the water system. It is important to determine with which of the systems the problem is associated. Certain problems may be associated with more than one system. A careful check of all systems should be made to fully understand the extent of the problem.
