This is a mechanical piece of equipment, it will make some noise and produce heat on the warm side
exterior grille (Fig. 3). Remember, unit installation location is not only important inside the wine cellar,
but just as important is where the warm side exhaust air is being rejected.

INSTALLATION
Before installing the unit, inspect it again for any shipping damage. Test the unit by placing it in a room
where the temperature is above 65°F. Position the unit to allow cold air to flow from evaporator outlet. (See
Fig. 1) Plug the unit's electrical cord into a properly grounded electrical outlet of adequate capacity (see unit
specification for unit electrical requirements).
The control system has no "off" position; therefore it will begin to run within 5 minutes of being plugged in.
Allow it to run for a minimum of 15 minutes. There should be a flow of cool air from the lower evaporator
outlet side (see Fig. 1) and warm air should be flowing from the rear opening on the exterior grille side (see
Fig. 3). If there is no airflow or no change in temperature on either side, contact your dealer.
BREEZAIRE
units should
NOT
be installed in a fire rated wall without consulting your local building
inspector and building codes.
The unit must be installed in the upright position and is not designed to have duct work on either the
warm air or cold air sides. Do not drill any holes into the cooling unit. It may damage the unit, promotes
rust, and will void the warranty. Do not install the unit so that its removal will be difficult or impossible. It
may be necessary to periodically remove the unit to clean the condenser coil.
The best location for the WKCE series cooling unit is six (6) inches from the ceiling, mounted on a shelf
(see above unit specifications for weight of unit) and with no obstruction for the
evaporator cold air outlet
airflow (minimum 12 inches) and a minimum of three (3) feet for the warm air discharge from the exterior
grille. (see Fig. 1, 2 and 3) It is preferred that the unit be mounted as close to equal distance from each
end of the wall as possible.
The area into which the unit exhausts must be well ventilated. If not, the unit will be unable to reject the
excessive moisture and heat, resulting in unsatisfactory performance. Inappropriate locations for the
