How Does the WhisperKOOL Extreme Series Work? The WhisperKOOL unit is especially designed to maintain optimal conditions for wine storage and aging. The unit is fully self- contained and can be installed through most walls. The unit is also capable of a more flexible ducted application, which allows the unit to be placed in an indoor remote site, resulting in a quiet airflow.

Undersized cooling units can lead to premature failure and/or prevent the system from reaching the desired set temperature. As a result, they are not covered under warranty. www.whisperkool.com | Page 7...
PREPARING THE UNIT FOR INSTALLATION The WhisperKOOL Unit requires a dedicated 240V, 15-amp circuit. The unit draws a large amount of amps during its initial startup. By designating a dedicated circuit breaker, you will guarantee the unit has enough power to run effectively. Contact an electrician for assistance with the installation of this dedicated electrical circuit.
Make sure that the internal height remains at 406 mm (3500ti & 5000ti) or 578 mm (8000 ti) so that the WhisperKOOL unit will fit snugly through the framed cut-out. www.whisperkool.com | Page 9...
PREPARING THE UNIT FOR INSTALLATION A two-piece mounting bracket is used to secure the unit to the wall studs. Two optional filler brackets can also be installed to frame around the top and bottom of the unit. The mounting holes on the unit have been designed to hold the unit at a two-degree (2°) angle.
The mounting screws will secure through the center holes on the mounting bracket flanges. Use the supplied pan-head screws to fasten the grille to the unit. You are required to use the 13 m pan-head screws provided. Do not drill holes into unit. Non-Flush Installation Flush Installation www.whisperkool.com | Page 11...
The 44 mm screws should penetrate the studs as well as the upper and lower supports to provide adequate support for the WhisperKOOL unit (see illustration). Seal all cracks and gaps around the WhisperKOOL Extreme unit with an air-tight sealant or caulking to prevent air leakage.
Then use the supplied drain line brush to clean the interior drain line. Use the drain line access door to drop a pan tab into the drip tray to prevent the buildup of microbial growth. WRONG: Drain line is under water. www.whisperkool.com | Page 13...
LIQUID-MEASURING THERMOSTAT SYSTEM (BOTTLE PROBE) WhisperKOOL cooling units come with a liquid-temperature-measuring thermostat. The self-calibrating bottle probe contains a sensor which communicates back and forth with the thermostat. This results in a consistent temperature setting and accuracy. Wine should be kept at a very precise, controlled temperature and humidity. By measuring the liquid temperature rather than air, the unit will operate 75–80% of the time.
When initially installing the unit, set the fan speed to the High setting to quickly cool down the cellar. Once the wine cellar reaches the desired temperature, a lower fan speed may be selected. In the event that the outdoor temperature rises above 0°C (when exhausting to the outdoors), a higher fan speed may be required. www.whisperkool.com | Page 15...
“PB2” (evaporator probe). Setpoint Safety Features The setpoint is set at the factory (WhisperKOOL) to 14°C. It can Once the compressor relay is de-energized the controller must be adjusted by the customer between 10–21°C in 0.1 degree wait five minutes before reenergizing the relay. This prevents increments.
The alarm symbol is shown and an audible buzzer will sound when the unit encounters an issue that needs attention. The displayed alarm codes are explained on the next page. To silence the buzzer, press any button. The alarm code will remain displayed until corrected. www.whisperkool.com | Page 17...
An increase in this parameter will keep the fan running longer after the compressor has turned off, reintroducing some of the moisture which was extracted from the wine cellar during the cooling cycle back into the cellar. (The WhisperKOOL unit, Humidity however, cannot increase the humidity of the cellar.) This parameter should not be adjusted below 1.
