New Gizmo's

New Rehab Cooling Fan

The Cooling fan is self contained in it's own plastic tank.

Fill the tank with fresh water (if possible) put the tank cover back on

Drop the filter and hose into the water and put the fan base in it's insert.

Unit plugs into a 120 volt outlet and has a ground fault circuit interrupter.

Unit controls are on the base and the fan itself. First, remove one of the misting heads

from the ring in front of the fan. These heads should only be hand tight.

Then, with one head removed, turn the base control to "MIST FAN" and let the pump prime

the spray heads. When water comes out of the opening turn the base control to off and

replace the head. You are now ready to operate the cooling fan

There are three fan speeds located at the back of the fan itself.

This unit stays in the station until there is a structure fire. It will ride in the back of the service.

Whenever possible use fresh water like from a neighbors garden hose.

Ice can be added to the tank to increase the cooling effectivness

A ful tank can last about 8 to 10 hours
