Q. IS THERE ANY ASSEMBLY REQUIRED?

A: No. Port-A-Cool® units are ready to use right out of the box.

Q. HOW DO I PREPARE MY PORT-A-COOL® UNIT FOR STORAGE?

A: Simply drain the unit, dry out the pads and place the unit, preferably covered, in a dry place for the winter season. For more details, please click on "Port-A-Cool® unit Maintenance" below.

Q. WHAT IS THE BEST ENVIRONMENT FOR THE PORT-A-COOL® UNIT TO PRODUCE THE MOST COOL AIR?

A: For optimum performance, the temperature should be 85 degrees F or higher and the relative humidity should be below 75%. However, Port-A-Cool® units will reduce the temperature in almost any environment, making it more pleasant.

Q. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EVAPORATIVE COOLING AND MISTING SYSTEMS?

A: Misting units spray a shower of water into the air that will collect on a person, getting the person wet. The Port-A-Cool® unit uses the evaporative process to produce cooler air.


Q. HOW OFTEN DO PADS HAVE TO BE REPLACED?

A: Depending on the quality of maintenance and frequency of use, pads typically last up to five years. However, should you have any questions about the life of the pads for your unit, please call our tech support department for more detailed information about replacing your pads.

Q. WHAT IS THE AMOUNT OF MOISTURE PRODUCED BY A UNIT?

A. Approximately 2% to 5% increase in humidity is produced depending on the temperature and humidity of the environment. This amount of increase in humidity is not noticeable in a ventilated area where the air produced by the unit is exhausted.

Q. HOW LONG WILL THE WATER SUPPLY LAST IN THE SUMP TANK?

A. With no direct water source available, the unit will evaporate the water in a filled sump tank within two hours of operation. The evaporation rate will vary depending on temperature and humidity. A water source for refilling the sump tank is recommended by the manufacturer. Every unit has an internal float valve for regulating water flow into the sump.

Q. SHOULD I USE ICE IN THE SUMP TANK FOR BETTER COOLING?

A. Some of the vapor from the ice water may be picked up and distributed by the fan, but this does not increase evaporation and therefore will not produce significant cooling.
