EnergyEfficient,NoCompressor.

GMCEvaporativeAirCoolersarebuilttomaximizeenergyefficiencyandkeepcostslow.

Warmairisdrawnintothecoolerthroughadustandodour‐reducingcarbonfilterand

enterstheCoolingPads.Waterpumpedfromthetankpoursoverthehoneycombcooling

pads.

Asthewarmairpassesthroughthemedia,thewaterabsorbstheheat,naturallycooling

Theevaporativeaircoolerworksbestwhenplacednearanopenwindow,sothatoutsideair

HowoftenyouneedtocleanyourGMCAB20EvaporativeCoolerwilldependon

localconditionssuchastheairandwaterquality.Ifyouhavehighmineralcontent

inyourwater,mineraldepositsmaybuilduponthefiltersandmaycauseareduced

airflowtothecoolingpads.Optimalmaintenancewouldbedrainingthewater

reservoiratleastonceaweekandreplacingitwithfreshwater.Thefiltersshouldbe

cleanedatleasteverytwomonthsandmoreoftenifyounoticeabuildupofmineral

depositsonthefilters.



Beforecleaningalwaysremovetheplugfromtheelectricalsocket.
