Note About Evaporative Coolers:
Ventilation:
Unlike traditional air conditioners, evaporative
coolers require an open ventilation system, not
a closed system. Both a fresh air source and an
exhaust opening are required to provide
correct air flow. Typically, a partially opened
window or door in each room where cooling is
desired will create correct airflow for optimum
effectiveness of an evaporative cooler.
NOTE: For best results, open windows/doors
should not be on the windward side on the
house.
Water bleed or purge:
Evaporative Coolers require a continuous supply of water to keep the media saturated for maximum cooling.
Water pumped into the cooler must be removed from the unit to ensure mineral and bacteria build-up do not
occur. This can occur with a gravity-fed steady bleed off stream or a timed purge system via a pump.
CAUTION: Water expelled from the cooler must be routed away from any areas that could do damage to
foundations or other vulnerable areas.
NOTE: Drawings in this manual are for illustrative purposes only and may reflect slight differences depending
on design level and configuration.
Features of the MasterCool® MCP44 Window Cooler
This cooler’s housing and frame are made of heavy-duty U-V resistant plastic to provide a light weight, easily
installable cooler. The unit is constructed in two basic sections to facilitate quick installation into traditional
sash windows or slider windows.
The high-efficiency rigid media offers superior cooling over other types of evaporative coolers.

1.Steady water supply is required for operation of the cooler. If taking water
from an external water faucet, install a sillcock and shutoff valve.
2.Install plastic or copper line to sillcock and connect it to the float valve.
Water Pump and Lines
A self-contained water pump continuously
circulates water through the water distribution
system and over the media.
The pump and water lines are shipped unconnected.
Connect the Water Lines
1. Locate the black water line snapped into plastic
keepers inside the unit.
2. Attach the bottom end of the main water line to

4. Reinsert the nipple into the overflow line.
5. Attach the top of the hose to the water distribution
tray.
6. Ensure there are no kinks in the water lines after
completion.
Overflow Drain
1. Slide the rubber washer over the overflow fitting and push through the hole in the bottom of the cooler from
the top side.
2. Secure the drain from beneath the pan with the Lock Nut.
Make sure the rubber washer does not twist while tightening,
which could cause it to leak. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
3. If leakage occurs after reservoir is full, retighten the overflow fitting until
leaking stops. A small amount of silicone caulk may be used if necessary.
4. Attach a drain hose to the bottom of the fitting if necessary.
Water Level
Two inches of water
should be maintained
in the bottom of the cooler to ensure sufficient water
for correct operation of the cooler.
The float is factory-installed to maintain a 2 inch
level of water, but may require adjustment if shipping
or installation has caused the setting to shift.

7
Electrical System
The electrical system does not require general maintenance. The following wiring diagram is supplied for
reference only.
ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS OF MCP44 COOLERS
MCP44
Fan Motor: 120 V; 2.8 Amps
Main Pump: 120 V; 0 .9 Amps
If Optional PURGE PUMP is installed
Additional 0.9 Amps
Plug-In Thermostat Usage
The MCP44 can be controlled by a plug-in programmable thermostat. These thermostats are locally available,
and enable precise timing and temperature control via an electronic thermostat that plugs into a 110 volt outlet.
To use such a device with the MCP44, follow the instructions for the specific thermostat and plug the cooler into
the outlet on the thermostat.
Optional Purge Pump
In addition to the standard water pump to recirculate water from the reservoir, a purge pump can be installed to
evacuate the contents of the reservoir every 6 hours. This helps retard bacterial growth and mineral buildup on
the media, extending its life. It also maintains fresher air in the home. The use of the purge pump is actually
more economical to use than a continual bleed line. The purge pump kit (P/N MCP44-PPK) for this unit may be
purchased locally or online.
Purge Pump Discharge
NOTE: The water ejected at the time of purging will be expelled at a high rate of speed, and must be routed
away from the foundation of the home or other areas where rushing water could do damage.
1. Attach a standard water hose to the overflow drain to direct the water away from the house.
NOTE: This water is not potable, but can be used for watering vegetable or flower gardens.

8
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The MCP44 has an electronic touch control
panel in the upper right hand corner.
Before turning unit on, ensure unit is plugged
in, water supply to pump is on, and there is
correct ventilation, as shown on page 3 of this
manual.
Note: These units may be controlled using the
3 buttons on the front panel of the cooler or
with the remote control.
On/Off
This button initiates power to the unit. When
first plugged, pressing ON/OFF will start the
unit in the default setting (pump ON and Fan
on HIGH). After its initial use, the last
operating settings (for fan and pump) will be
reinstated when the unit is turned on again.
Pressing this button when the unit is already running will turn both fan and pump off.
After A Power Failure: Once power is restored, the unit will restart in the same settings as before power was
lost.
Pump
This button toggles the pump on and off. When the LED is lit, the pump is running.
The pump must be on while operating the fan for the unit to operate as an evaporative cooler, though the unit
can be used in fan mode without the pump, if desired.
Note: For best results turn on the pump for a few minutes to wet the pads before operating the fan.
Fan
Pressing the fan button cycles the unit from HIGH, to MEDIUM to LOW speeds and then OFF.
Please Note: There is a two second delay from the pressing of the button for the fan to engage or change
speeds. This applies to the front control panel and the remote control.
Remote Control
The remote control supplied with this cooler allows you to turn the unit on
or off, control fan speed and initiate the pump. The buttons operate in the
same manner as those on the front control panel.
The remote control’s range is approximately 20 feet within sight of the
cooler. It uses two AA alkaline batteries (included). A wall mountable
holder is also supplied with the cooler.

9
USER SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
Maintenance on evaporative coolers is minimal, but very important to the proper operation and effectiveness
of your cooler. Periodic inspection of the cooler’s interior will reduce the potential for substandard cooling due
to insufficient or uneven water distribution.
NOTE: For general maintenance purposes, the unit may be rapidly drained of water by removing the overflow
fitting from the bottom of the unit. This is not adequate draining for winterization (see procedures under
Winterization section.)
Annual Maintenance (May be Needed More Often in Areas with Hard Water)
Cleaning
WARNING: Disconnect from electrical power and turn unit off during all maintenance. Turn water supply off
before removing back for cleaning or maintenance.
1. Remove the back media guard (as shown below).
2. Inspect pads in place. Remove media pads from back guard by unscrewing the media peg
clips. Be careful not to chip or damage the media while removing. Visually inspect both
sides of media pads. Look for blockage, mineral build-up or mildew growth, breakage
or other anomalies.
NOTE:
Whenever removing
the back from the
cooler, always verify
the water supply
tube is reconnected
to the water
distribution tray
before operating the
cooler.

Enfriador Evaporativo de Ventana del MasterCool® MCP44
Instrucciones de uso e instalación

16
Nota acerca de los enfriadores evaporativo:
Ventilación:
A diferencia de los acondicionadores de aire,
los enfriadores evaporativo necesitan un sistema de
ventilación abierto y no cerrado.
Se requieren tanto una fuente de aire fresco como una
apertura de escape para generar una correcta circulación de
aire. Típicamente, una ventana parcialmente abierta o la
puerta en cada cuarto(espacio) donde de enfriamiento es
deseada crearán la corriente de aire correcto para la
eficacia óptima de un enfriador evaporativo.
NOTA: Para mejores resultados, las ventanas/puertas
abiertas no deben estar en la parte de la casa enfrentada
al viento.
Purga de agua:
Los enfriadores evaporativo requieren un suministro de agua continuo para mantener saturado el medio y lograr un
máximo enfriamiento. Debe retirarse de la unidad el agua bombeada dentro del enfriador para evitar la acumulación
de minerales y bacterias. Esto puede suceder por acción gravitatoria de un flujo de descarga constante o por un
sistema de purga programado a través de una bomba.
ADVERTENCIA: El agua expulsada del enfriador debe dirigirse lejos de cualquier área que pudiera afectar los
cimientos u otras zonas vulnerables.
NOTA: Los dibujos de este manual son para fines ilustrativos y pueden reflejar pequeñas diferencias en función de las
diferencias de diseño y configuración.

posterior (como indica la ilustración). Complete la instalación de la parte exterior con dos tornillos en la parte
superior de la protección posterior del medio.
6. Una vez instalada la unidad a la ventana, acople un separador de acordeón a cada lado del módulo del
ventilador con los bordes de fondo adhesivo. Pueden utilizarse tornillos cortos (no incluido) para obtener una
instalación más segura. (Cerciórese de que los tornillos no interfieran con las aspas del ventilador).
7. Una vez instalados los separadores de acordeón, selle cualquier hueco que haya quedado alrededor de la
unidad con silicona o masilla para todo tipo de clima.
Instalación Empotrada
Este enfriador se aprobó para instalaciones empotradas. Póngase en contacto con un contratista autorizado para
que instale el enfriador en una pared externa.
1. Extraiga la pantalla y asegúrese de que la
ventana esté abierta en toda su altura. Desde el
exterior de la ventana, deslice la parte del
módulo del ventilador en la ventana. Asegúrese
de que la persona que esté en el interior ajuste
la colocación exacta de la unidad para mantener
el aspecto y las longitudes correctas de los dos
separadores de acordeón (incluidos).
Nota: Después de identificar la posición de la
instalación, coloque un nivel de burbuja en la
parte superior de la unidad y realice los ajustes
necesarios para asegurarse de que la unidad esté
nivelada cuando se haya completado la
instalación. Se recomienda verificar que la unidad
esté nivelada en distintos puntos durante la
instalación.

Conexión de agua
NOTA: Se necesitará un grifo de manguera estándar con válvula de
agua acoplada (disponible a nivel local) para conectar el suministro
de agua al enfriador.
1. Se requiere un suministro de agua constante para el
funcionamiento del enfriador. Si se obtiene agua de un grifo
externo, instale un grifo de manguera y una válvula de cierre.
2. Instale una tubería plástica o de cobre hasta el grifo de
manguera y conéctela a la válvula de flotador.
Bomba de agua y tuberías
Una bomba independiente hace circular el agua
de forma continua a través del sistema de distribución
de agua y del medio.La bomba y las tuberías de
agua se envían sin conectar.
Conecte las tuberías de agua
1.Ubique la tubería de agua negra insertada en los
sujetadores de plástico dentro de la unidad.
2.Conecte el extremo inferior de la tubería de agua
principal en la toma de entrada de la bomba.
3.Retire la boquilla insertada en el extremo de la
tubería de desborde. Inserte la manguera de
desborde en una de las ranuras en el interior de la
conexión de drenaje de desborde.
4. Vuelva a insertar la boquilla en la tubería de desborde.
5. Conecte la parte superior de la manguera a la
bandeja de distribución de agua.
6. Asegúrese de que no haya pliegues en las tuberías
de agua una vez terminada la instalación.
Desborde de Drenaje de agua
1. Deslice la arandela de goma sobre desbordamiento de drenaje y empuje a través
delorificio desde la parte superior del enfriador, hacia la parte inferior.
2. Asegure el desbordamiento de drenaje por debajo de la bandeja con la
contra tuerca. Asegure que la arandela no se tuerza mientras se la está
apretando, pues esto puede causar filtración. NO LA APRIETE DEMASIADO.
3. Si ocurre una filtración después de llenar el tanque , vuelva a apretar el
tubo de rebosamiento hasta detener la filtración. Puede usarse una
pequeña cantidad de calafate con silicona de ser necesario.
4. Conecte drenar manguera hasta el fondo del montaje como sea necesario.
Nivel de agua
Deben mantenerse dos
pulgadas de agua en el fondo del enfriador para garantizar el
agua suficiente para un correcto funcionamiento del enfriador.
El flotador viene instalado de fábrica como para mantener 2"
de nivel de agua, pero puede requerir un ajuste si el transporte
o la instalación causaron algún cambio en la configuración.

Sistema eléctrico
El sistema eléctrico no requiere mantenimiento general. El siguiente diagrama de cableado es sólo a modo
de referencia.
ESPECIFICACIONES ELÉCTRICAS DE LOS ENFRIADORES MCP44
MCP44
Motor de ventilador: 120 V; 2.8 Amperios
La bomba principal: 120 V; 0 .9 Amperios
Si la bomba de purge (opcional) se instala
Adicional 0.9 Amperios
Uso del termostato complementario
El MCP44 puede controlarse mediante un termostato programable complementario. Estos termostatos pueden
adquirirse a nivel local y permiten un control preciso del tiempo y la temperatura a través de un termostato
electrónico que se conecta a un tomacorriente de 110 V. Para utilizar dicho dispositivo con el MCP44, siga las
instrucciones para ese termostato en particular y conecte el enfriador al tomacorriente en el termostato.
Opcional Bomba de purga
Además de la bomba de agua estándar para recircular el agua desde el depósito, una bomba de purga se pueden
instalar para evacuar el contenido del depósito cada 6 horas. Esto ayuda a retardar el crecimiento bacteriano y la
acumulación mineral en el medio y así prolongar su vida útil. También conserva el aire más fresco dentro del
hogar. En realidad, el uso de una bomba de purga resulta más económico que una tubería de purga continua. El kit
de bomba de purga (n.º de pieza: MCP44-PPK) para esta unidad puede adquirirse a nivel local o en línea.
Descarga de la bomba de purga
NOTA: El agua arrojada en el momento de la purga saldrá expulsada a gran velocidad y se la debe alejar de los
cimientos de la casa u otras áreas donde pudiera ocasionar daños.
1. Anexe una manguera de agua estándar al drenaje de desborde para dirigir el agua afuera de la casa.
NOTA: Esta agua no es potable pero puede utilizarse para regar huertos o jardines.
