from condensing on the cold surface of the cooling unit in the wall. Please remember that in all cases the warm air
exhaust grille must be directly attached to the warm side of the unit. Do not leave an air gap between the unit's
surface and the warm air exhaust grille. The unit will not work properly without this grille. The exhaust grille
has only a white primer coat. If the grille is installed on an outside wall it should be coated with an appropriate
paint.
F Seal the opening around the unit with high quality weather stripping and cover with an appropriate
molding. Attach the molding to the wall, not the unit.
F Plug the unit into a properly grounded 115-volt outlet of adequate capacity. See specifications.
OPERATION
On initial start-up the cooling unit will reduce the temperature of the enclosure slowly. The unit may run constantly or
cycle off for short periods. The time required to reach the desired temperature will vary, depending on the enclosure
construction and contents. The thermostat is factory set to approximately 55°F. Unless the temperature falls below that
which is desired, do not change the thermostat setting for at least 3 days. After initial cool down, the "on-off" cycle
should be relatively constant. The percentage of "off " time will depend on enclosure construction, contents, and the
temperature surrounding the enclosure. If it is necessary to adjust the temperature of the enclosure; adjust the
thermostat to a colder temperature while the unit is running and to a warmer temperature while the unit is off. If the
operation of the unit is stopped, either by unplugging it or by turning the thermostat, do not restart it for at
lease 10 minutes.
MAINTENANCE
The BREEZAIRE cooling unit requires very little maintenance. To keep the system operating at its top performance,
at least once every three months the condenser coil should be inspected and vacuumed to prevent air blockage.
Remove the large warm air exhaust grille located outside the enclosure where the warm air is discharged. Use a vacuum
with a brush attachment to remove the lint or dirt that may reside between the aluminum fins. If the condenser coil
becomes blocked preventing proper air flow the unit will overheat causing a loss in cooling efficiency and will
result in a failure of the unit not covered under warranty.
ENCLOSURE PROBLEMS
BREEZAIRE is extremely proud of the quality and reliability of its products. Experience has shown that of the small
number of problems encountered, the large majority are due to improper unit selection or enclosure construction.
