Using It on the Job
- Always isolate the main power to the evaporative cooler before starting any work.
- Carefully unclip and remove the old, potentially fragile pads from the cooler housing.
- Clean the cooler’s water reservoir, distribution troughs, and surrounding surfaces to remove scale, dirt, and biological growth.
- Install the new FILTEX CEL pads, ensuring they are seated correctly and firmly in their frames.
- Restore power and test the cooler, observing water flow and pad saturation.
- Check for even water distribution over all four pads to maximise cooling efficiency.
Limitations & Safety Notes
- These pads are specifically designed for Bonaire evaporative coolers with the listed dimensions; they may not fit other brands or models.
- Always ensure power is isolated and locked out before performing any maintenance on evaporative coolers.
- Follow the manufacturer's installation guidelines and safety instructions for your specific cooler model.
- Wear appropriate PPE, such as gloves, when handling used pads or cleaning chemicals.
Regularly check your cooler's water level and condition, especially if you're in an area with hard water. Limescale can quickly reduce pad effectiveness, so a clean system with fresh pads gives you the best performance.
