down, the warm air will rise to the ceiling. Mounting the WhisperKOOL high in the room will create a consistently
cool environment by capturing the warm air and replacing it with cool air. Mounting the unit low in the room will
result in a temperature variation in the room due to the unit's inability to draw warm air from the ceiling of the cellar

Exhaust Area
Unobstructed air ow too and from the unit is critical for the unit's overall performance and life-span. A mini-
mum three-foot clearance ( ve foot is ideal) area is crucial. The air the fans blow needs to circulate and either dissi-
pate or absorb heat from the space, the more air to exchange the more e cient the system will operate.
Note: Avoid attempting to camou age the unit. This will restrict air ow and thus the unit's ability to work e ciently.
Door and Door Seal
An exterior grade (1 3/4") door must be installed as a cellar door. It is very important that weather stripping is at-
tached to all 4 sides of the doorjamb. A bottom "sweep" or threshold is also required. The door must have a very good
seal to keep the cool cellar air from escaping out of the cellar. One of the most common problems with cooling units
running continually is due to the door not sealing properly.
