How to Clean Your EcoSmart Desk or Pedestal Air Circulator

Maintaining your EcoSmart Desk or Pedestal Air Circulator is key to ensuring it operates smoothly and efficiently. Regular cleaning prevents dust buildup, which can affect performance and airflow. Follow these steps to keep your air circulator in top shape.

Safety First
Before cleaning, always ensure that the fan is turned off and unplugged from the main supply. This step is essential to avoid any electric shock or accidental start-up risk.

Wipe Down the Exterior
Using a damp cloth (not wet), gently wipe down the exterior surfaces of the fan to remove dust and dirt. Avoid using a soaked cloth to prevent water from entering the motor or electrical components.

Vacuum the Grills
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust and fluff from around the fan grills carefully. This helps to improve airflow and maintain the fan's efficiency.

Remove the Front Grill
To clean the fan blade and interior thoroughly, you'll need to remove the front grill:
Locate the screw at the top on the back of the fan head and unscrew it.
After removing the screw, slightly turn the front grill anti-clockwise until the catch releases.
Gently pull the front grill away from the fan.
Remove and Clean the Fan Blade

With the front grill removed, you can now take out the fan blade:
To release the fan blade, turn the securing nut clockwise to loosen and remove it.
Gently pull out the fan blade.
Using a damp cloth, carefully wipe the fan blade and the grill, removing any dust or dirt. Avoid using excess water, as it could damage the components.

Dry and Reassemble

Ensure all cleaned parts, including the front guard and fan blade, are thoroughly dry before reassembling:

Place the fan blade back onto its mounting and secure it by tightening the nut (turning it counterclockwise).

Reattach the front grill by aligning it, then turning it clockwise until it clicks into place. Secure the grill with the screw.

Final Checks

Once reassembled, double-check that everything is securely in place. Ensure the fan is completely dry before plugging it into the main supply.

Important Notes

Do Not Dismantle: Do not take apart any other sections of the fan, as there are no user-serviceable parts inside. Contact an authorised electrical service technician if the fan requires further servicing or repair.

Regular cleaning of your EcoSmart Desk or Pedestal Air Circulator will help extend its lifespan, allowing you to enjoy efficient air circulation for years.
