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.
