It is recommended that you arrange with your installer for an annual maintenance and service
inspection.
GENERAL TROUbLESHOOTING
ODORS
The DCM cellulose material is treated with binders during manufacturing which emit odors during the
first few days of operation. The odors will gradually dissipate and should not be noticeable after one
week of regular use. You may use the thermostat mode button to flush the reservoir with fresh water
to more quickly eliminate the odors.
bUbbLES AND WATER CARRYOVER
The same binders that cause odors can cause bubbles to form on the surface of the DCM. The bubbles
may carry water droplets into the supply air outlet, especially when the fan is running at high speed.
Frequently flushing the reservoir during the first week of operation should also cure this problem; if it
persists, contact your dealer.
MOLD CONCERNS
As with all HVAC equipment there is always the consideration of mold growth. Mold growth is a real
concern in single stage evaporative “swamp coolers”. The OASys unit has been designed with several
features that will prevent mold growth. If properly installed and maintained there should be no mold
growth in the OASys unit. As part of the annual service and maintenance of the unit a visual inspection
should be made to ensure that these features are working properly and that mold is not present in the
unit.
1. The Dump Cycle prevents the build-up of dirty water.
2. The Dry Out Cycle avoids the moist environment conducive to mold growth.
3. A biocide additive is available and should be used if the OASys is installed in a climate area that
experiences periods of relatively high humidity.
WINTERIzATION
If you live in an area subject to freezing temperatures, at the end of the cooling season turn off water
supply to the unit and ensure that the supply connection is drained and that the unit is dry. It is advis-
able to cover the unit to prevent infiltration of cold outdoor air.
