 The cooling unit produces cooling supplied into the cabinet, meanwhile it also
generates heat that must be exhausted outside the cabinet. So the cold-air
supply with return-air intake and hot-air exhaust with ambient-air side must be
separated and sealed. Foam tape gasket may be used to seal them. The
cooling unit must intake adequate fresh ambient-air to work properly. The
ambient-air intake and hot-air exhaust must not be short-circulated. A piece of
wood may be used to separate them.
 Cut a rectangular inside opening at the rear of the cabinet with the 1/4”
clearance inwards to the width and height of the cooling unit. Make 1/2” lip to
place the gaskets (see Fig. 2.1).
 If top exhaust installation, cut another rectangular opening at the top of the
cabinet to the length and width of the top exhaust (see Fig. 2.2).
 Install 2 pieces of 1/4” ID wood thread inserts at the ceiling (see Fig. 2.3).
 Place the gaskets (1/2” foam tape) on the gasket lips (see Fig. 2.4).
 If top exhaust installation, place another gaskets along the top exhaust at the
top of the cooling unit (see Fig. 2.5).
 Move the cooling unit towards the mounting sides and push to press the
gaskets.
 Use 2 mounting brackets and 1/4” screws with 7/16” wrench to secure the
cooling unit (see Fig. 2.6).
 Plug the cooling unit in the receptacle.
