Reinforced, Continuous, One-Piece Trough

  • One-piece trough is made of heavy-duty, ultraviolet-resistant polypropylene and has no problematic joints where leaks and breaks tend to occur in others' systems.
  • Fabric-reinforced trough material is proven under the harshest conditions and provides self-contained water storage.
  • Unlike competitors’ rigid plastic troughs, Chore-Time’s seamless trough design is easy to install, saving time and expense on your new construction or retrofit project.

Open Top Design

  • Unique, large 2-inch (5-cm) pipe and 5/32-inch (4-mm) water distribution holes.
  • Uniform water distribution up to 75 feet (22.9 m), or 110 feet (33.5 m) with a center-mounted sump.
  • See water jets and check water pressure easily.
  • Easy access to pipe for cleaning.
  • Pipe includes removable end plugs for cleaning.
  • System includes rubber water-containment seals at system ends.

Well-Designed, Innovative Sump Tank

  • Includes reinforcing ribs for greater strength and durability, and a drain plug for seasonal service.
  • Reliable automatic float valve matches water supply to demand and helps maintain consistent pad wetting.
  • Specially engineered to hold submersible pump and low water safety switch. (Switch is included in standard system.)
  • Clever design allows tank to be mounted at either end or in middle of system.
  • Convenient bleed-off valve and easy access shut-off.

Designed for Easy Pad Maintenance

  • Full-width plastic support tray under pads improves pad support and extends pad life.
  • Pads are easy to remove for cleaning without hardware or tools.
  • Trough provides self-contained water storage.

High-Performance Pad

  • Standard 45/15 fluting and 12-inch (30.5-cm) pad width.
  • Pad heights: 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 feet (0.5, 0.9, 1.2, 1.5 or 1.8 meters).
  • Standard pad includes black protective coating.
  • Protective bottom coating is optional.

Explanation of Evaporative Cooling Process

Evaporative cooling is the process of reducing air temperature by the evaporation of water in the air stream. The best performing systems draw incoming air through a wetted pad at the inlet of the ventilation system. As air passes across the great amount of surface area within the pad, BTUs of heat are removed from the air, lowering the air temperature.

The more water that is evaporated, the greater the temperature reduction. Also, the drier the air at low relative humidity, the greater the ability of evaporation to take place. During the hottest time of the day, when cooling is needed, generally the humidity will be low, and the air can be cooled several degrees.
