Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of a Brivis Cooling system. For you to achieve the performance and efficiency
expected from your new cooler, please ensure the installer is a qualified trades person, that the installer has
commissioned the unit before you commence operating, and you take the time to read the contents of this manual.
In some Australian States it is mandatory that your cooler installation is issued with a certificate of compliance to
guarantee the installation workmanship. Please check with your installer or the local plumbing authority or
association. The Brivis cooler is covered by the product warranty as outlined in this manual.
Brivis products are renowned for providing years of trouble free performance. However, that doesn’t mean that they
will operate at their peak for all of that time without some attention. To be at their most efficient they, like most things,
need a little care. So, to ensure that every Brivis unit is always in perfect condition, we have established the Brivis
Care Program for our valued customers.
The Brivis Care Program provides you with a maintenance service. This service includes cleaning the unit and
ensuring that the system is operating at maximum efficiency. Not only does this guarantee peak performance, it also
allows any minor problems to be detected early. This ensures that the system will always be ready when you need it.

How does your evaporative cooling work?
The amount of cooling available from any type of cooling system is dependent on the outside weather conditions.
Your evaporative cooler works best on hot, dry days. It is essential to provide the required amount of ventilation (for
your evaporative cooling system to function properly) by opening windows/doors whenever the cooler is operating.
Air is drawn in through the filter pads resulting in 100% fresh cool air entering the home. The movement of this
cooled air through your home will draw the heat out of the house, so be sure that doors or windows are open to
expel this heat to outside. Whenever possible start the cooler early to prevent the build up of heat within the house,
and on sultry or humid days your cooler may work better with the fan ONLY running and the pump turned OFF. Stale
air, cigarette smoke and fumes can be quickly cleared and replaced with fresh air by turning the fan to manual mode.
Before operating your Brivis Evaporative Cooler
Make sure enough window and/or door area is open for the unit to work correctly. The following table gives a guide
to the amount of open area required for each model in m

, and also gives suggestions on how to provide this.
