Water Panel Maintenance

For optimal performance, we recommend that you replace the water panel at least once a year, and clean out
mineral deposits in the distribution tray and drain:


Turn the cooling unit off and disconnect the power supply to evaporator and condenser.

Turn off the water supply to the humidifier.

Remove the humidifier access cover to gain access to the internal humidifier components.

Remove Internal Screen (Item 1).

Lift the Water Panel evaporative assembly out of the humidifier housing.

To remove the distribution tray (Item 2) from Water Panel evaporative assembly, push down on tray and pull out
scale control insert (Item 3). To clean the "V" openings of the tray, gently pry the distribution tray cover (Item 4)
from the tray. Lightly scrape out or brush off any mineral deposits, being careful not to stretch or loosen the
synthetic fabric liner. Soaking the tray in vinegar or a lime-removing agent is helpful when trying to remove
stubborn mineral deposits.

Slide the Water Panel evaporator (Item 5) out from the scale control insert (Item 3) and dispose of the Water Panel.
Clean the scale control insert of mineral deposits. Replace the Water Panel evaporator with a replacement Water
Panel from CellarPro. Slide the Water Panel back into the scale control insert (Item 3) and snap the distribution tray
cover (Item 4) into the distribution tray (Item 2). Then snap the distribution tray back into the scale control insert.

Inspect the plastic feed tube by gently flexing it and looking for cracks or signs of wear. Replace tube if it is
cracked, brittle or has been damaged.

Remove the drain line from the bottom of the humidifier and flex it to loosen any mineral deposits or blockage. Then
flush it with water under pressure. If it does not properly clear, replace it. Slip the drain line back onto the drain fitting
(Item 6). Make sure the drain line has a constant downward slope and is not flattened or blocked.

Reinstall Water Panel evaporative assembly and Internal Screen (Item 1).

Reconnect electrical power and turn on water supply.

Set the humidistat to activate the humidifier, and verify proper water flow through to the drain line.

Return the humidistat set point to the desired level.
