Celair Evaporative Cooling Service, Repairs & Replacements
Signs your evaporative cooling system needs attention:
- Warm air coming from the outlets
- Weak airflow in some or all rooms
- A damp or stale smell
- Water leaking onto the roof
- The fan running without water reaching the pads
- The pump making an unfamiliar noise
- The controller failing to respond
- The cooler starting and stopping
- Excessive noise or vibration
- Water continuing to run after the system is switched off
- Visible corrosion around the cabinet
- Sections of the filter pads remaining dry
Some problems can be resolved with a cleaning and servicing of your evaporative cooling system or a replacement part. Extensive corrosion, damaged internal supports or difficulty sourcing compatible parts may make replacement more practical. We will let you know if we believe replacing your evaporative cooling system would make more economical sense.
Celair Controller Problems
Some older Celair evaporative coolers use wall controls such as the TEK600 series controller. Depending on the system, the controller may manage fan speed, pump operation, automatic settings and ventilation mode.
A controller problem may cause:
- A blank display
- Buttons that do not respond
- The fan or pump failing to start
- Intermittent operation
- Incorrect temperature readings
- Automatic mode failing to operate
- The system switching itself off
- Settings being lost after a power interruption
The controller is only one possible cause. Wiring, sensors, electrical boards and equipment inside the rooftop unit can produce similar symptoms.
Record any message or symbol shown on the display before switching off the system. This can help the technician identify the fault.


Celair Ductwork Repairs or Replacement
If you decide to upgrade your evaporative cooling system, existing ducts may be retained when they are correctly sized, insulated, securely connected and free from major damage.
We inspect the ductwork for:
- Split or crushed sections
- Loose connections
- Failed insulation
- Air leaks
- Water damage
- Dust and debris
- Incorrect duct sizes
- Poor outlet placement
- Deteriorated fittings
Should you decide to replace your Celair evaporative cooling system with reverse cycle air conditioning, the ductwork will be replaced as part of the new installation.
