Blower and Ductwork
The WayCool® WC-1/3HP uses a direct drive, 1/3 HP electric motor to drive a centrifugal blower. The blower draws room air through the
cooling pads and discharges the cooler air through the blower duct, displacing the warmer air with cooler air and decreasing the
temperature.
The blower is secured to the top of the frame and hangs upside down to direct the air out the top of the unit. Brackets on each side of the
blower casing secure the blower to the frame and hold it in position.
The electric motor is secured to the blower casing by metal braces and directly connects to the blower shaft. A startup capacitor is
attached tot the top of the blower casing and is wired to the motor.
Note: A capacitor retains electrical energy even after the unit is shut down and unplugged. DO NOT TOUCH the bare
connections or you could be injured.
The power cord runs down the frame leg that has the control switch on the outside. It exits the frame leg at the bottom and has a male
plug that must be plugged into a normal, 120-volt outlet. The cord is approximately seven feet long.
Note: The WC-1/3HP unit requires 120 volts and 5 amps of power. This is normally available on most circuits. However, if you
are running a number of other items on the same circuit, you may trip the breaker. If so, plug the WayCool® into another
circuit. If you require an extension cord, make sure it is at least #14 wire and no longer than 50 feet. If you need a longer cord,
use one with # 12 wire. Using smaller wire or a longer cord will degrade the WayCools®'s performance, shorten the life of the
electric motor and could cause a fire. None of this is covered by warranty.
A GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) is recommended for use near water.
