WhisperKool EXTREME 5000TIR - Manual (Page 17)

Page 17
Placement of Unit
Slide the unit from the outside wall into your wine cellar with the outer flange flush to the wall. Secure the
flange to the wall through the pre-drilled holes. The screws should penetrate the studs as well as the upper and
lower supports to provide adequate support for the WhisperKOOL system (see illustration). Seal all cracks and
gaps around the WhisperKOOL Extreme unit with an air-tight sealant or caulking to prevent air leakage.
Note: If you use decorative molding, it should be attached to the walls and never to the cooling unit itself.
Note: The screws to the flange should not be covered in case the unit needs to be removed for servicing.
Location of Supply and Return Grilles
Locate the supply and return grilles inside the cellar to create an airflow pattern that maximizes air circulation in
the room. Avoid short circulation of the air.
Do not:
• Install through-the-wall return air grilles at floor level, as they will collect dust from the floor.
• Mount the unit lower than 18” from the ceiling.
• Locate the supply or return air grille where it is blocked by bottles, boxes or cases.
Liquid Measuring Thermostat System
To assure a consistent temperature, place bottle probe approximately 3 feet away from the air output and not in
the flow of the air.
