Ambient Temperature Factor
This unit has the ability to efficiently cool a wine cellar as long as the air temperature directly behind it at the coil does not
reach 85 degrees. NOTE: The ambient temperature in the venting room is not always the same as the temperature directly
behind the unit because of the heat from the exhaust fans. If you are uncertain about how the unit will function in your
location, please contact us right away at 1-800-343-9463 or [email protected]
Ventilation
The necessity of dissipating heat away from the unit is critical to the unit’s performance and cannot be overstated. As the unit
operates and cools, a greater amount of heat is generated on the exhaust side of the unit. Adequate ventilation is required in
order to dissipate heat away from the unit. If ventilation is inadequate, the exhaust will heat up the area or room and adversely
affect the unit’s ability to cool.
Note: If you are unsure whether you have adequate ventilation in your installation location, please
contact us to assess your specific installation at [email protected] or 1-800-343-9463.
Avoid venting to closets, bathrooms, attics, or small rooms. This can affect the
unit’s ability to effectively cool the room and void warranty.
Drain Line
All units come with a drain line for additional removal of excessive condensate. This is a backup system for the evaporator. You
are REQUIRED to install the drain line attachment. During operation, the cooling unit will strip excess water from the air in order
to maintain the proper level of humidity within the cellar. The condensate evaporator will heat and dissipate the excess moisture
through the rear of the unit. However, in extreme humidity, additional condensate will be created. High-humidity air has less
capacity to absorb additional moisture through the exhaust of the unit. The drain line will prevent overflow and leaking by
allowing for the discharge of the additional condensate. WhisperKOOL carries a condensate pump kit, which allows the excess
condensate to be pumped up to 20 feet away from the unit.
