USER SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
Maintenance on evaporative coolers is minimal, but very important to the proper operation and effectiveness
of your cooler. Periodic inspection of the cooler’s interior will reduce the potential for substandard cooling due
to insufficient or uneven water distribution.
NOTE:
For general maintenance purposes, the unit may be rapidly drained of water by removing the overflow
fitting from the bottom of the unit. This is
not
adequate draining for winterization (see procedures under
Winterization section.)
Annual Maintenance (May be Needed More Often in Areas with Hard Water)
