5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your evaporative cooler. Always unplug the unit before performing any maintenance.
5.1 Cleaning the Exterior
- Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth.
- Do not use abrasive cleaners, waxes, or solvents as they may damage the finish.
5.2 Cleaning the Water Tank
To prevent mold and mildew growth, clean the water tank regularly, especially if the unit is used frequently.
- Drain any remaining water from the tank.
