Electrical Needs
The WhisperKOOL Extreme System requires a dedicated 115-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 an electrician for assistance with the installation of this dedicated
electrical circuit:
1. Match the electrical outlet to the plug provided on the WhisperKOOL unit.
2. Provide a dedicated circuit and wiring for the unit.
3. Provide a weatherproof plug for units mounted outside.
4. Mount outside units at a height of 18” and provide overhead protection.
Electrical Outlet
The unit is equipped with two electrical outlets: one for the interior or cellar side and one for the exterior or
outside of the cellar. There is a toggle switch located on the right side of the unit that indicates front (cellar side)
and rear (exterior side). When placed in either position, power will come from that outlet only.
Plug your WhisperKOOL unit into a surge protector or power conditioner. As with any sensitive electrical equip-
ment, the WhisperKOOL electrical equipment may be damaged by power surges and spikes. Power surges and
spikes are not covered in the WhisperKOOL Extreme warranty.
WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU DO NOT USE A GROUND FAULT INTERRUPTER (GFI) WITH THIS PRODUCT.
In case the unit should lose power, press the reset button and attempt to turn the unit back on. Check the home/
main circuit breaker. If the unit does not respond properly, refer to the Troubleshooting section on page 32.
