INSTALLATION

Electrical Needs

The WhisperKOOL System requires a dedicated 110-volt 20- amp circuit. The unit draws a large amount of amps at initial start up. By designating a dedicated circuit breaker, you will guarantee the unit has enough power to run effectively. Contact your electrician for installation of this dedicated electrical circuit.

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 covered and have been secured with screws. Regardless of which side is utilized, the other outlet must then be covered in order to avoid a live electrical charge.

Purchase a surge protector or power conditioner to plug your WhisperKOOL unit into. As with any sensitive electrical equipment, the WhisperKOOL unit’s circuitry may be damaged by power surges and spikes. Power surges and spikes are not covered by the WhisperKOOL warranty.

Do not use a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) with this product. The cooling unit will draw more amperage than the GFI will allow.

Upon plugging the unit in and turning it on, there will be a five minute delay before the unit starts. This is based on the function of the thermostat.

Sizing Unit to Room

The specification chart will provide information on the unit’s room size cooling capacity. There are circumstances in which a cellar design may require a larger unit due to some existing design restrictions. In such a case, we recommend that the customer consider purchasing a unit with a larger capacity to compensate for the design limitations. Issues such as glass doors, concrete, or brick walls and floors may seem adequate but do not offer the insulation capacity required to maintain the optimum environment.
