Mine went a long time without cleaning...lime scale all inside tank. Used straight white vinegar and let it soak inside the water tank for 45 minutes or so; change vinegar...use plastic scouring sponge...rinse...repeat as needed. Works very well! Sanitizes too!
I also soaked my "honeycomb cooling media" (buff colored thing) in my tub; enough water to cover it and 1/2 gallon white vinegar. Soak 1 hour minimum, rinse, drain and replace in unit. Helps get rid of moldy smell.
You have that plastic grate thing (the thing he hosed down last) on the inside. I did this because it looks like it's there to hold the pad against the back. But it belongs facing out for some reason. It doesn't seem to have a purpose but oh well.
Hmara varsha company Ka h but usme water drain Ka koi option h or na pad open krne Ka please help me I m very irritating with this cooler. Motor me problem ho vo bhi thik nhi ho pa rhi
@@brendan.1979 Alvin Pitti's concern on fan cleaning is valid. Overtime, tha fan blades are coated with thick dust. Also, believed that Alvin was enquiring about fan lubrication.
.Depends how much you use it and conditions you live in...manual says once every 1 - 2 months or sooner. Drain tank once a week. the "cooling media" clean every 1 - 2 months.
