Your pump keeps the pads wet. Without it, there is no cooling.
The pump lifts water from the tank and spreads it across the cooling pads. When it seizes, burns out or clogs, the pads dry out and the cooler only blows warm air. Pumps work in mineral-rich water all summer, which is why they are the part we replace most often.
We test the pump under load, check the power supply and inspect the distributor lines before recommending replacement. If a clean will restore it, we clean it. If it needs replacing, we fit a correct-spec pump and check that every pad is evenly wet before we leave.
Signs your pump is failing:
- Fan is running but the air is not cool
- Humming or buzzing from the roof unit
- Dry patches or streaks on the cooling pads
- Water in the tank but none running over the pads
- Pump starts and stops on its own
- The safety switch trips when the pump starts

Pump problems and how we fix them
How your evaporative cooler works
Evaporative cooling uses water and fresh outside air instead of refrigerant. Understanding the four main parts makes it easy to see why a single failed component stops the whole system cooling.
Tank & pump
Water collects in the tank and the pump lifts it to the top of the pads.
Cooling pads
Water soaks the pads. As hot air passes through, evaporation cools it by up to 10–15°C.
Fan & motor
The fan draws air through the wet pads and pushes it down into the ducts.
Ducts & outlets
Ducts carry the cool air to each room. Open a window or door so warm air can escape.
Simple, transparent and on time

Water Pump Repair: common questions
How much does it cost to replace an evaporative cooler pump?
Pump replacement is one of the lowest-cost cooler repairs. The exact price depends on your brand and model, and we confirm a fixed, low price before we start.
How long do evaporative cooler pumps last?
Typically 5 to 8 years. Hard water, a lack of servicing and running the tank dry all shorten a pump's life.
Can a pump be repaired instead of replaced?
Sometimes. If the impeller is jammed with scale or debris, cleaning can restore it. Burnt-out motors cannot be repaired economically and need a new pump.
Do you carry pumps for my brand?
Our vans stock pumps for Breezair, Bonaire, Braemar, Brivis, Coolair and other common units, so most replacements are done on the first visit.
Why is my cooler blowing warm air with water in the tank?
Water in the tank but warm air almost always means the pump has stopped or the distributor lines are blocked. Both are quick fixes for a technician.
