Power Switch
XLT units, built after June 2007, come equipped with a
3-position ON/OFF power switch. The upper position activates
power from the cellar side outlet located on the side of unit. The
bottom position activates power from the rear position outlet.
The center position is OFF and is simply used when the owner
does not need to utilize the equipment.
NOTE; (It will take five minutes before the unit begins to
operate once the switch is placed in the “On” position. This
is due to the designed safety delay in the PDT thermostat.)
Condensate Evaporator Switch
The Condensate Evaporator is a heating element that automatically evaporates excess condensate that
accumulates in the cooling system as a by-product of refrigeration. Only the WhisperKOOL units are
equipped with sophisticated heating elements that automatically sense the presence of water and work
continually until the water is gone. Setting the Condensate Evaporator to the “On” setting causes the
heating element and the right exhaust fan to stay on continuously to prevent excess condensation from
building up in the unit.
Drain Line
All units come with a drain line for additional
removal of excessive condensate. This is a back up
system to the Condensate Evaporator. It is
mandatory 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. Conversely the high humidity air has less
capacity to absorb additional moisture through the
exhaust of the unit. Thus the drain line will prevent
overflow and leaking by allowing for discharge of
the additional condensate. WhisperKOOL carries a
condensate pump kit, which allows the excess
condensate to be pumped up to 20 ft. away from
the unit. See page 29 for details.
Failure to install the drain line voids warranty.
To prevent mold from growing, allow the
drainline to hang above the water line.
