CONVERTED CLOSETS APPLICATIONS
The BREEZAIRE WKC series cooling units were designed and engineered for cabinets and credenzas. However if you have looked at the BREEZAIRE WK series cooling unit and you feel the WKC series units will better serve your application you must follow theses specifications:
FThis is a mechanical piece of equipment, it will make noise and produce heat on the warm side exterior grille (Fig. 3). Remember, unit installation location is not only important inside the wine cellar, but just as important is where the warm side exhaust air is being rejected.

INSTALLATION
Before installing the unit, inspect it again for any shipping damage. Test the unit by placing it in a room where the temperature is above 65°F. Position the unit to allow cold air to flow from evaporator outlet. (See Fig. 1) Plug the unit's electrical cord into a properly grounded electrical outlet of adequate capacity (see unit specification for unit electrical requirements).
The thermostat has no "off" position; therefore it will begin to run within 5 minutes of being plugged in. Allow it to run for a minimum of 15 minutes. There should be a flow of cool air from the lower evaporator outlet side (see Fig. 1) and warm air should be flowing from the rear opening on the exterior grille side (see Fig. 3). If there is no airflow or no change in temperature on either side, contact your dealer.
FBREEZAIRE units should NOT be installed in a fire rated wall without consulting your local building inspector and building codes.
FIf your installation cannot be performed in accordance with these instructions contact your dealer.
FThe unit must be installed in the upright position and is not designed to have duct work on either the warm air or cold air sides. Do not drill any holes into the cooling unit. It may damage the unit, promotes rust, and will void the warranty. Do not install the unit so that its removal will be difficult or impossible. It may be necessary to periodically remove the unit to clean the condenser coil.
FThe best location for the WKC series
cooling unit is six (6) inches from the ceiling, mounted on a shelf (see above unit specifications for weight of unit) and with no obstruction for the evaporator cold air outlet airflow (minimum 12 inches) and a minimum of three (3) feet for the warm air discharge from the exterior grille. (see Fig. 1, 2 and 3) It is preferred that the unit is mounted as close to equal distance from each end of the wall as possible.
FThe area into which the unit exhausts must
be well ventilated. If not, the unit will be unable to reject the excessive moisture and heat resulting in unsatisfactory performance.
