Using It on the Job

1. Safety First: Always isolate power to the evaporative cooler at the mains and lock it out before opening the unit.
2. Access & Remove: Carefully unclip or unbolt the panels to access the old pads. Note their orientation before removal.
3. Clean the Sump: While the pads are out, give the water sump a thorough clean to remove any scale, algae, or sediment. This is a good time to add the bonus antibacterial tank treatment.
4. Install New Pads: Position the new Coolbreeze pads, ensuring they are seated correctly and oriented as the old ones were. The self-supporting design makes this easier.
5. Reassemble & Test: Secure the panels, restore power, and run the cooler on low speed to check for proper water distribution and air flow. Listen for any unusual noises.
6. Monitor Performance: Over the next few hours, check that the cooling performance has improved and there are no leaks.

Limitations & Safety Notes

• Only for use with Coolbreeze C160 Cascade Contour models (WITH CHANNEL) with matching dimensions.
• Always ensure mains power is isolated and locked out before attempting any maintenance on evaporative coolers.
• Regular cleaning of the water sump is still recommended, even with antibacterial treatments, to prevent buildup.
• Dispose of old pads responsibly according to local council guidelines.

When you're installing these, make sure the pads are fully saturated and settled before you really crank the fan. It helps prevent dry spots and gets you the best cooling from the get-go, especially after a long off-season.
