Locating the System
Wine Guardian systems are typically installed at the user’s eye level for ease of operation. The
Through-the-Wall system discharges warm air from its condenser end so this should be
considered when determining the location for the system. Locating the system adjacent to a
mechanical room or in close proximity to an exterior wall may be required if ducting the warm
condenser air is being considered. The warmer condenser air can be ducted up to15 feet away.
Be sure to install wire nuts onto the black and white wire leads at the condenser end, once the
cord is removed.
Power Cord Location
As previously noted, the power cord is factory wired on the
condenser side of the system. If you require the cord on the wine
cellar side for plugging into an available outlet, this can be
accomplished by removing the 3-wire leads (ground included) and
moving the cord with connector to the opposite side control bracket
and wire nutting the black and white wires to the factory supplied
leads. The wires must have the terminations cut off and stripped
first. Then screw the ground lead to the hole supplied in the control bracket. 17
