General Inspection
Unit Installation
1) Is the unit installed in the correct direction, with front side of unit in wine
cellar and back side in exhaust room/space? Refer to page 12 of the
owner’s manual.
2) Is the unit mounted within 18” from ceiling to allow
proper air circulation? Refer to page 6 of the owner’s manual.
Wine Cellar
3) Is the cellar door sealed properly? To check, make sure cellar door is
closed and lights are turned off within cellar; light from outside should not
be visible through any of the four sides around the door.
4) Are there any glass windows and/or glass doors in the cellar?
6) Are any of the cellar walls in the direct path of the sun?
General Ventilation
9) Is there at least 3’ of unobstructed clearance for the fans and grills on the
unit? Obstructions to the air flow greatly reduce the effectiveness of the
unit’s ability to cool the cellar. Refer to page 7 of the owner’s manual.
10) Are there any decorative plates/covers on the unit? If so, remove them. They
obstruct air flow to and from the vents. Refer to page 7 of the owner’s
manual.

such as shelving, may obstruct air circulation and ventilation.

the back.)
