  • Page 5: Receiving & Inspecting The Unit

    Note: Refer to the Unit Specific Installation Guide (USIG) for a detailed packing list for your specific split system order. Please leave the WhisperKOOL system in its original boxes until you are ready for installation. This will allow you to move the product safely without damaging it. WhisperKOOL highly recommends that you save your boxes and all packaging materials.
  • Page 6: Preparing The Wine Cellar

    In cases where glass doors are used and the room size is close to the recommended unit size, the next larger size WhisperKOOL should be used. This will compensate for the insulation loss due to the inefficient door.

The condenser requires a dedicated 20 amp circuit, non-GFI. Make sure there is a minimum three-foot horizontal clearance in front and rear of the unit. The unit may either be hard wired or plug-in depending on local electrical codes.
