Dude , you ROCK!! A hundred videos could not explain the water distributor tube . You also explained the mystery foam filler use . Thank you very much !
Solid vid bro! I missed the directional part, the arrows on the pad. And hey don’t forget to turn off your heat! Especially if your thermostat is right under your cooler vent like mine🤔
Hey, great video, this was incredibly helpful as we moved out to rural Arizona from the city and had no idea how to do a lot of things, and swamp cooler maintenance was pretty high on the list of necessary things. We managed to do everything, but I have to ask, how did you clean out the inside of the cooler so well? Ours has a lot of dirt and scale buildup, with an old, dinky little pump barely helping the process. Does anyone have any tips for getting scale/dirt out of the little water reservoir inside?
Are the holes for the distributor supposed to be pointing up like yours? Mine was and I made them point downward. It seemed like the water was spraying and dripping excessively past the pads with them pointing up.
Thank you for the great presentation. The bad part is that I found this at the end of the day, after painfully replaced the pads, which seemed to be originals after many years. I have one question. Does the water level pump needs to be FIXED? Again, thank you very much!
I have a clean out pump in addition to the water pump. It goes through a tube in the roof and drains on the side of my house. Sometimes a lot of water comes out... is that normal? How do I even it out?
Thank you for the great info! I'm sorry i can't find the links to the parts in the description box. Also, do you have any advice on algae growing on the pads? How to prevent that? It never used to happen. These past few years, if i have to turn on the AC for a week during a heat wave, and then turn it back on when it cools off it smells like sea world in the house. Sure enough the pads are green. Any advice would be much appreciated!
Thanks for the vid! Very informative. We are getting a lot of water leaking into the flat area around the fan and leaking onto the roof. We have no idea how it is getting there. Do you know where that water might come from?
First you need a trace down where the water is leaking from that should be straightforward if you thoroughly look from where it's coming you might possibly have to sub seal the swamp cooler I have videos on that too
The distributors should be supplying all of the media with water. If some of your media is not getting water check your distributors they could be clogged.
No one said it would dissolve it I said to use it to clean with a scrub brush and you will get it as best as possible that's what I said@@dancingspaceman9963

Exceptionally great video. I'll tackle my swamp cooler with a whole lot more confidence now. Thanks!
The manual that comes with the MC 5112 leaves out a lot of details. You covered them nicely. Thank you.

Good video. Don't some have bolts on the other side the need loosened when adjusting belt tension?.

You saved me man 💪🏽👌🏽
Awesome video! Thanks! I have a flat roof and need more space for maintenance. Where did you get the metal frame your cooler sits on?
your best bet is to have someone who can weld make it for you
@@boogity66 Thanks a lot!
Thanks man, that's just the info I needed.
Thanks

I need to update the links.
For your algae issue if you are bleeding off water that should help
Thank you for getting back to me so quickly! I really appreciate the advice!😁
Great video! You covered a lot that helped me replace my media pads. Only question is, how do you get rid of the new media smell? My house stinks!
Thanks for watching. Change out the water once a day. For a few days within a few days, it will dissipate
Great video, very informative. Thanks so much for the help.
Thanks

Swamp cooler had lot's of HAIR..!
Where is the bar that goes in atop of the wet pan and how does it sit correctly?
not too sure what you're asking period
Sir your great your video is very helpful thanks
Thanks for watching.
Do you have a video on how to wire the the outlets for a master cool? (Where You plug the pump and motor inside the unit) TY
No but it is easy to do. Try Google it and see if you find a diagram
Forgot to ask: is water supposed to be on BOTH sides of the filter, or just the outside?
The distributors should be supplying all of the media with water. If some of your media is not getting water check your distributors they could be clogged.
Use Vinegar to dissolve all the tartar buildup
it is scale not tartar.
@@boogity66 ok and have you tried using vinegar to dissolve that build up?
No one said it would dissolve it I said to use it to clean with a scrub brush and you will get it as best as possible that's what I said@@dancingspaceman9963
@@boogity66 I am only suggesting you to use vinegar to get rid of the build up. That's all
Can you tell us what type of oil this is? And where we can purchase.

If I has a cooler on the ground it would look new too. Not hating though. Great video.
