A. Troubleshooting
The most common problems encountered with a PORT-A-COOL® unit are operational problems. The
PORT-A-COOL®	unit	consists	of	three	systems.		It	is	important	to	determine	which	system	of	the	PORT-A-COOL®	
unit	the	problem	is	associated	with.		Certain	problems	may	be	associated	with	more	than	one	system.
When determining which system that the problem is associated with you must first define the problem,
i.e.,	the	pump	is	not	running.		Although	this	might	seem	a	bit	over-simplified,	several	things	may	cause	a	particu-
lar	problem.		So	while	defining	the	problem,	a	careful	check	of	all	systems	should	be	made	to	fully	understand	
the	extent	of	the	problem.
If you have a complete understanding of all the systems of the PORT-A-COOL® unit and how they depend
on each other, it becomes much simpler to define and solve any problems.
Although the PORT-A-COOL® unit is designed to be simple to maintain, it will be necessary to have some
basic	hand	tools	(screwdrivers,	pliers,	adjustable	wrenches,	etc.)	as	well	a	volt/ohm	meter	for	troubleshooting	
the	electrical	system.
