.

All Ducted Evaporative Air Conditioners benefit from some general maintenance to ensure

continued cooling efficiency and a long life. Maintenance is carried out at the beginning and end

of summer to start up and close down your unit.

We recommend that all maintenance work be undertaken by our fully trained and accredited

Service Technicians or an authorised Climate Technologies Service Provider.

The frequency of general maintenance will depend on local operating conditions such as water

quality, air borne dust and pollen.

It is essential that your evaporative air conditioner is maintained in accordance with this manual.

Failure to do so will affect the life of the product , reduce the level of efficiency and may void

warranty.

For service Australia wide refer to the details on the service section of this manual.

NOTE: The manufacturer and its agents reserve the right to refuse service unless safety

and accessibility to the unit can be guaranteed. The cost of any extra equipment

required to provide access to the unit for servicing is the responsibility of the

owner.

SAFETY: Prior to commencing any maintenance isolate the unit at the power source.

Ensure the roof is safe to access, your ladder is securely positioned and use

suitable safety equipment.

Visually check CELDEK pads for damage or blockage. Hose down pads from both
sides to remove any build up of salts, dust and pollen. In dusty areas more regular
cleaning is recommended. Check the water distributor, making sure it is clear and free
from blockage. Failure to do so may lead to uneven water distribution and therefore
less efficient operation.

It is important to keep the water tank clean and free from sediment and algae growth. To clean

the tank, use a soft brush or similar. Wipe all surfaces in the tank while it is full of water (DO

NOT FORGET THE PUMP STRAINER). Turn off the water inlet to the unit (an Isolation Valve

should be fitted to the water inlet before the Float Valve). Drain the tank by removing the 40mm

standpipe. It may be necessary to repeat this procedure if the tank is very dirty.

SAFETY: Wet roofs are dangerous – Take Care When Draining Tank.

The water level should be set at nominal 65-70mm from the top of the overflow before filter pads

are saturated. After run off from operating filters the level from the top of the overflow fitting

should be 25 – 30mm. The float valve is a mechanical type and is factory set. If it requires

adjustment keep bends tight. If the valve is leaking the seal may require cleaning or replacing.

Turn of the water. Remove the split pin and then float arm. Remove piston and clean or turn

seal. Flush system and replace piston, float arm and split pin.

Note: Water supply line to float valve must be flushed before connecting.
