Placement of Unit

Slide the unit from the outside wall into your wine cellar with the outer flange flush to the outside wall. Secure the flange to the wall through the predrilled holes. The screws should penetrate the studs as well as the upper and lower supports to provide adequate support for the WhisperKOOL System (see illustration). Seal all cracks and gaps around the WhisperKOOL unit with caulking to prevent air leakage. (If you use molding, it should be attached to the walls, never to the WhisperKOOL unit itself.)

Electrical Outlet

The unit is equipped with two electrical outlets, one for installation inside the cellar and the other for installation outside the cellar. Both outlets are initially covered and secured with screws. Select the outlet to be used and remove that cover; the unused outlet must remain covered to avoid live electrical charge.

Remove side electrical outlet cover for easy through the wall installation. Immediately replace cover when install is completed and prior to powering up unit if electrical cord is not attached to outlet.
