START UP PLACEMENT 1) Make sure there is a clear, unobstructed path in front of the evaporative cooler to provide maximum airflow. 2) If the evaporative cooler is positioned on a raised platform, ensure the platform is stable, well constructed and will not allow the evaporative cooler to tip over. Ensure it allows for the full weight of the evaporative cooler, including a tank full of water.
MAINTENANCE While the rugged, corrosion-resistant construction ensures low maintenance will be required, keeping your evaporative cooler clean will ensure it stays in peak operating condition. DAILY MAINTENANCE The pump should be turned off approximately 15 minutes before the fan is turned off, which allows the KUUL® evaporative media to dry out.
