READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

SAFETY RULES

1.  Read all instructions carefully.
2. El

ectrical connections should be done by a qualified electrician, 

so that all electrical wiring will conform to your local codes.

3.  Always turn OFF POWER and UNPLUG motor and pump inside 

the cooler before installing or performing any maintenance.

4.  Your cooler will run on either 120V or 240V A.C., single phase, 

60 Hz (cycle) current.

5.  Motor and pump h

ave a grounded, molded plug and an automatic 

thermal overload switch which will shut motor off when it 

overheats.  The motor will restart automatically when it coo

ls 

down.

WARNING:

  To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use 

this fan with any “solid-state fan speed control device.”

READ CAREFULLY ALL OF THIS MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING THE UNIT

Evaporative cooling is nature’s way of cooling.  When air is 

moved over a wet surface, water is evaporated and heat is 

absorbed.  When stepping out of swimming pool with the 

wind blowing, evaporative cooling makes you feel cool, even 

though the air may be warm.

This unit

 works on the same principle.  Air is drawn across 

wet filter pads where the air is cooled by evaporation and then 

circulated throughout the building.  It is this combination of 

cooled air and the movement of air over the skin which makes 

it feel cool.

Unl

ike refrigeration systems which recirculate the air, an 

evaporative cooler continually brings in fresh air while 

exhausting old air.  You are completely replacing the air every 

2 to 4 minutes by opening windows or doors, by using Up-

Dux

®

 

ceiling vents, or a combination of both.  The air is always 

fresh, not stale, laden with smoke and odors as happens with 

refrigerated air conditioning.
