GENERAL OPERATION

Electrical Connection  

PRODUCT MUST BE IN UPRIGHT POSITION WITH COOLING PADS INSTALLED!

All models utilize a single power cord and control switches. Before connecting the plug to an outlet, ensure there is no standing water where the cord 

may lie or where the operator is standing. The use of separate multiple outlet devices is not recommended. When making electrical connections, 

ensure compliance to local and national codes. Use only with GFCI Protected Receptacles. Please refer to the Barcode Product Label on the 

side of the product for specific electrical requirements.

OPERATING PROCEDURES

Specifications

Each Portacool evaporative cooler has its own set of operational specifications, sizes, weights, voltage frequency, current requirements, 

etc. Please ask for the specifications for your model from your distributor, check the serial number plate, or visit www.portacool.com for the 

specifications for your product.

Placement of the Portacool Evaporative Cooler

There are three primary considerations when deciding where to place the Portacool evaporative cooler.

1)  Make sure there is a clear, unobstructed path to provide maximum airflow.

2)  If the evaporative cooler is positioned on a raised platform, ensure the platform constructed for holding the product is stable, well constructed, 

  and will not allow the product to tip over and that it allows for the full weight of the evaporative cooler including water in the tank. The product 

  must be level and in the upright position.
