General Duct Recommendation

 Support the flexible duct often to prevent sags or bends.
 Stretch the duct to make for a smoother interior with less air resistance.
 For a 90-degree bend, insert a metal elbow inside the flexible duct to avoid crimping.
 Do not squeeze or reduce the inside diameter of the ducts. This restricts the
airflow.
 Use short and straight ductwork.
 Review the configuration schematic on the Overview Sketch on page 12 for
information about which panels are available for duct connections and service.
 Remove the panels or grilles from the openings to connect the ductwork.
 Check that all the fan blades move freely.
 Check for loose foreign objects in any of the air paths.
 Connect the round flexible ducts to the Wine Guardian using the duct collars that are
provided with the duct accessory kit.
 Pull the outer plastic wrapping and insulation away from the end of the duct to
expose the reinforced inside duct liner.
 Use tie straps of clamp around the
Do not clamp around the outside insulation. It compresses and loosens over time.
 Secure the duct collar to the unit using the screws provided. Be careful not to damage or
bend the gasket.

Using Ductwork

Cold Air to/from Wine Cellar

Wine Guardian unit.
 Connect the return air ductwork from the cellar to the return air duct collar at the
Wine Guardian unit.
