Vinotemp Wine-Mate Series Operation Care Installation Manual page 17

• There is a gravity drain system used, so the unit shall be installed level or with
a slight slope downward the drain connection and the drain line shall be
installed slope down toward the drain.
4. Temperature Controller and Air Probe
• The temperature controller can be mounted either inside or outside the wine
cellar, but the air probe must be located inside the wine cellar or the return
duct.
• The air probe shall be located in the wine cellar 5 ft above the floor or the air
return area, but it shall not be located in the air supply area or other areas
where air is not circulated.
• Air probe can be pulled out of the temperature controller up to 5 ft. If
additional wires are necessary, 18 gauge wires may be used to extend the air
probe.
• If the air probe is installed in a return duct, the evaporator fans shall be
running at all times. Meanwhile due to the temperature differential the air
probe calibration should be done to maintain the proper wine cellar
temperature.
5. Insulated Duct and Drain Line Installation
• Cold air supply and cellar air return ducts can be up to a total length of 50 ft.
• Hot air exhaust and fresh air intake ducts can be up to a total length of 50 ft.
• Secure the ducts with conduits to the cellar exterior walls and make sure they
are not curled, twisted, bent and clogged.
• Hook up the drain line. If rise-up of the drain line is needed, a condensation
pump must be used.
