CSL - Do I drain my chiller unit on the Coast Freshe Cold Plunge?

We'll walk you through the process step by step, ensuring you can drain your chiller like a seasoned pro. But before we dive in, remember to power down your entire Coast Freshe Cold Plunge system for safety. Now, let's get started! 

Power Down Your Entire Coast Freshe System: Ensure your entire plunge system, including the chiller, is safely powered down and disconnected from any power source. 

Safety first! Disconnect the "In" and "Out" Chiller Connections: Locate the "In" and "Out" connections on your chiller. Carefully disconnect these connections from the chiller. This will ensure water doesn't spray everywhere during the drainage process. 

Caution: Don't Rest the Ports on the Ground: 

Here's the crucial part: Be extra cautious not to rest the "In" and "Out" ports directly on the ground. The ports are delicate and could break if they're subjected to too much pressure. 

Let the Water Drain: As your chiller is upside down, let gravity do its work. The water will naturally flow out from the "In" and "Out" ports. 

Wait Until Fully Drained: Be patient. Ensure that all the water has fully drained from the chiller before moving on. 

Allow the Chiller to Rest Before Turning it Back On: Before you excitedly reconnect your chiller to the plunge system and power it back on, exercise a little patience. It's essential to let the chiller rest for a minimum of 4 hours. This allows the coolant to settle and ensures optimal performance. Rushing this step can lead to a chiller that fails to cool efficiently. 

With these steps, you can confidently drain your chiller without any worries. Remember to handle those "In" and "Out" connections and ports with care, and enjoy the safe and hassle-free process. Now, you're ready to chill out or perform maintenance without a hitch.
