4.3 Starting the pump and adjusting the water flow
DO NOT flood the pads with water, keep them moist. New pads will take a few days before they
become completely saturated. It is normal to have several dry streaks on the face of the pads
about 1 to 2 inches wide. If the streaks are larger adjust the flow control knob to allow more water
to flow onto the pads. NOTE: New pads may also emanate an odor under initial operating
conditions from the resin used to construct the media. Flush the pads by running the pump
without the fan running for at least 12 hours; overnight is best. Empty the sump and refill. Repeat
if odor still exists.
NOTE: Run fan while adjusting the water flow
Once the sump is full, the pump switch may be turned to the ‘ON’ position. The flow control
knob will need to be adjusted on initial start-up. It is located at the side of the unit; it controls
the volume of water that is delivered to the top of the cooling pads.
Prolonged use of hard water without proper water treatment will create mineral deposit
build up causing the pump to fail which is NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY
Pump is equipped with a LOW WATER CUT OFF which may take up to 5 minutes to reset each
time.
