The bottom can be supplied continuously with an ordinary garden hose by attaching the supplied hose adapter
(see Figure WC-1HP-DHL.08) to the fill connection, or it can be filled manually.
With a continuous water supply connected, the float valve in the bottom (like the one in your toilet tank) rises
and falls with the water level. A linkage attaches the float to the shutoff valve in the fill connection. As the water
level rises to normal operating level (about 5" deep), the float valve shuts off the water supply. When the water
level drops, the float valve reopens to maintain a normal operating level.
After unplugging the unit, the bottom can also be manually filled with a hose or bucket; if a hose connection is
impractical. Simply remove any of the plastic retaining grates and one of the cooling pad sections and place
the hose, or pour the water, directly into the bottom. When you fill the bottom manually it can be filled to a
higher level, but make sure someone monitors the filling operation to avoid overfilling and flooding.
Note: Water damage due to overfilling is not covered by the warranty.
Note: When you run the unit and manually fill it, check the water level frequently so it does not run dry.
Operating the pump without water will damage it or reduce its service life. This is not covered by the
warranty. The cooling effect also stops if the pads are dry.
Note: Pads and grates must be replaced before operating unit.
