Once the retaining
angle bar
is removed from the top of your
QuietCool unit, reach to the top of the dry
cooling
pad to the
left and gently take hold of the
top of the pad and gently pull
back and slightly down
–
this action will loosen the pad from
the unit.
Look at the
direction of the angle of the pad flutes
(side of pads
).
Remove the cooling
pad and proceed to
the next
pad. Then, remove all
five cooling
pads and gently set in a
safe place.
Note
: this is a good
time to take the cooling
deck pads
outside and run clean
wa
ter over the pads to remove any
accumulated dirt and debris.
Do not use high pressure hose
–
this
will
damage pads and
their a
bility to function effectively.
Make sure the pads are thoroughly dry b
efore placing back
inside
the unit. Full exposure
to the sunlight is a good way to dry
the pads while helping remove mold and mildew.

Daily maintenance
15 minutes before quitting time – turn off the water pump and let the fan run
10
– 15 minutes – to dry out the
cooling
pads
before leaving. Inspect the
cooling
pads to make sure they are thoroughly dry (this action helps to reduce mold and mildew)
when pads are completely dry then turn
-
off fan.

Periodic maintenance
Depending upon your environment and how
often
you operate your QuietCool will depend on how dirty your water gets in
the reservoir and how often you will need to clean it. If you begin to detect an algae smell coming from your unit – it’s time
to flush your QuietCool reservoir with fresh water. Refer to and follow the steps above in 7
.2
and you will only need to
remove 1 or 2 of the
cooling
pads from the left side of the unit to gain access to your water reservoir. Take a small sponge
and clean out your water reservoir with a light cleaner and wipe it down completely and let the unit dry.
(Y
ou may want to
use a wet / dry shop vacuum to clean out unit).
When
unit is clean replace your
cooling
pads (make sure flutes are facing
correct direction) retaining bar and bolts and add fresh, clean water back to the units’ water reservoir.
Note
: If smell
continues after restarting the unit you may want to add QC Tabs (wh
ich help to reduce
algae, mold and mildew)
you can get
the QC Tabs by ordering from the QuietCool order form found in section 9.0. Simply follow instructions on the label.
You
may want to consider a Water Stabilizer to remove harmful calcium, scale build
-
up and algae
–
see section 9.0.
Note
: You may want to remove most of water from water reservoir by attaching a garden hose to the drain valve and place
the end of the garden hose into a drain then, running pump until sump is dry
–
shutting off pump immediately.
Warning! Do not run pump without water in the reservoir.
This action will burn up your QuietCool’s water pump.
