WhisperKool XLT 1600 Testing Unit, Applying Insulation Tape, Liquid Measuring Thermostat System

Page 13

Carefully remove your WhisperKOOL unit from the box. Do not destroy your packing material, as it provides the only safe means of transporting the unit. Units weigh 65–100 pounds and are cumbersome for one person to carry. We recommend that you get someone else to help you during the installation process.

Testing Unit

Place the WhisperKOOL system on a tabletop to prepare it for installation and testing. Locate the by-pass plug and insert it into the thermostat plug, located on the front of the WhisperKOOL System. Next, plug the system into a live electrical outlet and turn the unit on. The system should begin cooling. The system may take up to 10 to 15 minutes before running cool. Once the operation has been tested, turn the unit off, unplug the unit from the electrical outlet, remove the by-pass plug, and install thermostat.

Note: If the system does not seem to be running cool after 15 minutes, please refer to the Troubleshooting Guide on page 19.

Test Plug

Before installation, use the by-pass

test plug to test the unit.

Adhesive Covering

Foam Tape

Flange

 

Applying Insulation Tape

Locate the four precut pieces of black foam tape included with your system. There should be two larger pieces and two smaller pieces. Start with the large pieces. Peel back the white-paper adhesive covering, and attach the large pieces to the sides of the unit flange. Then follow with the two smaller pieces on the top and bottom. This foam creates a tight seal between the unit’s flange and the wall (see illustration).

Note: Failure to install foam strips may void the warranty.

Attach precut foam tape to the unit’s flange.

Liquid Measuring Thermostat System

To assure a consistent temperature, place bottle probe approximately 3 feet away from the air output and not in the flow of the air.
