All QuietCool models require regular 3 prongs, ground with 120 volt power supply. Plug electrical cord into receptacle. If
using an extension cord be sure it is rated for at least 20 amps for the distance your cord is running. To be safe – make sure
no other equipment, such as a radio or electrical equipment, is plugged into the same circuit. The QuietCool should run
smoothly on 20 amp, 120 volt, and 60 Hz circuit.
4.2 Connecting the water supply
Connect standard water hose to female fitting on the right side of your QuietCool (looking at the fan blade side). If your
water pressure is above 60 pounds per square inch (p.s.i). you must use a pressure regulator (which can be found at your
local hardware store). If you have purchased our optional QR60 gallon reservoir tank – simply attach the garden hose from
the tank to the cooler.
Note:
Do not connect to water source exceeding 60 p.s.i. – this can cause damage to your QuietCool.
5.0 Operating procedures
Back your QuietCool unit up to a fresh air source
such as an open door or window so the unit can pull
in fresh air from the outside. Next, make sure you
have a natural exhaust at the opposite end of the
room, bay or building such as a window, door or bay
door. This will ensure maximum efficiency from
your unit. Finally make sure there are no obstructions
between your QuietCool and the people / area you
need to cool.
5.1 Filling the units reservoir with water
Once your water hose is connected, turn water on and
fill the reservoir with water. Listen carefully. You
can hear water filling the reservoir. Check your water connection – make sure there is no dripping. Once the reservoir is
filled with water the float valve will automatically shut off the water source. When you no longer hear the water running –
you know that the float valve is fully operational (the water turns off automatically) and you are now ready to turn on the
water pump.
Warning! Do not run water pump without water in the reservoir.
5.2 Turn-on pump
To turn-on the water pump - flip the toggle switch for the water pump to on. Switch is located on front side of unit.
Warning! Do not run water pump without water in the reservoir
. The water pump will now begin pumping water to the
top of the unit so that gravity will allow the water to run down the backside of unit inside and on the cooling pads. Once
your QuietCool cooling pads are saturated – then, you are ready to turn fan on high and begin to feel the cooling effect from
your new QuietCool. Note: After your cooling pads are broken in (typically takes 1 -2 weeks in operation) it will take less
time to saturate pads for start-up. This is a good time to dump the old water – add ½ Evap-O-Matic Chemical Water
Treatment tablet and refill with fresh water. (Simply remove a cooling pad to place tablet inside of water reservoir).
