FAQ of evaporative cooling pad air cooler pads (updated to 2022)

Evaporative pad is mainly composed of polymer water paper, honeycomb structure, is produced from the base paper processing. Their cooling effect depends mostly on the material used in the water cooling pad evaporator (evaporative pad), which is one of the core cooling parts of the equipment.Please click here to read more.

Among our customers, there are cases of more than 5 years of use, based on good maintenance of evaporative air coolers. In the case of heavy use, we recommend replacing the evaporative cooling pads once every 2-3 years for the best cooling effect.

For heavy use, it is best to perform a full cleaning of the evaporative air cooler three times a year: once in the spring before it is used, once in the middle of the season, and once before packing.
You will also need to drain the tank and refill it with fresh water at least once a month. If you are in a dusty country or region, you can appropriately increase the cleaning frequency of the air cooler.

The damaged water curtain paper has mold, cracking, water leakage and blockage, which will cause the cooling effect of the air cooler to deteriorate. This will prompt you that you need to replace a new evap cooler pad.

First, turn off the power of the evaporative air cooler. Then, remove the cooling pad from the air cooler and use a water gun to rinse the cooling pad.
Please pay attention to the strength of the water gun to avoid excessive force and damage to the air cooler pads. Finally, clean the dust screen of the air cooler. Dry the evaporative pad and dust net naturally and put it back into the air cooler.

You can keep it running 24/7 until the hot spell ends. You can turn the air cooler on to fan only over night if the night temperatures are in the mid 68℉/20℃ or keep it running over night if the temperature are close to 86℉/30℃.

Evaporative coolers are most effective in high temperature (85°F/29.5℃ or more) and lower humidity (below 50% relative humidity) situations. Evaporative coolers are least effective in lower temperature (below 75°F/23.8℃) and high humidity (above 60% relative humidity) situations.

The working principle of the fan and pad cooling system is that the exhasut fan extracts the hot air from the room and accelerates the evaporation of the cooling pad. After the outdoor hot air passes through the water cooling pad, it becomes cold indoors.
The fan pad cooling system needs to be installed in a relatively confined space. It is widely used in various greenhouses and chicken coops.

Fan pad cooling system is most effective in high temperature (85°F/29.5℃ or more) and lower humidity (below 50% relative humidity) situations. Fan pad cooling system is least effective in lower temperature (below 75°F/23.8℃) and high humidity (above 60% relative humidity) situations.

There are many factors that affect the cooling effect of evaporative cooling pad. Water temperature, cooling pad wind speed, pad structure and area, and cleanliness and other factors are very important for the coolinWg efficiency. Please click here to read more.
