No clear video for this pad kit yet. The steps cover it.

  1. 1Isolate the cooler from the power before any work. Ensure the roof is safe to access, your ladder is securely positioned and use suitable safety equipment, Bonaire says; it recommends its trained service technicians or an authorised Climate Technologies service provider for this work.
  2. 2Remove a louvre: undo the thumb (transit) screw at its top, slide the louvre upward and lift it out of the unit.
  3. 3Take the old pad out of the louvre panel: remove the old clips, or cut off the old plastic retaining spikes with side cutters.
  4. 4Place the new pad in the louvre panel and fix it with new Filtercool clips and washers (retaining spikes on older units), pushed through the pad onto the vertical ribs until the pad sits firm against them.
  5. 5Refit the louvre and repeat for the others, then restore the power and run the cooler. Check the pads wet evenly; the Navigator control's Pad Clean function runs a 20-minute wash.

After fitting the pads

No pad reminder to reset. If your installer turned on the service reminder, the spanner icon on the Bonaire Navigator control appears after 700 hours of running; it is a service reminder, not a pad timer. Bonaire's Pad Clean function (Navigator control) runs a 20-minute wash of the pads.

Common questions

What happens if I don't change the pad kit?
Clogged pads pass less air and water, so the cooler blows warmer air, and old pads can smell musty.
Does Celair make a compatible pad kit?
Bonaire makes the genuine pad kit for Celair models. Compatible pad kits for Celair models are made by other companies to fit the same models, and Australian sellers we track list both; each part page shows the genuine and compatible prices side by side.
Is there anything to do after changing the pads in a Celair cooler?
No pad reminder to reset. If your installer turned on the service reminder, the spanner icon on the Bonaire Navigator control appears after 700 hours of running; it is a service reminder, not a pad timer. Bonaire's Pad Clean function (Navigator control) runs a 20-minute wash of the pads.
