Clean off any accumulated dust, lint, or other debris from the front and rear
intake grills. This will restrict the airflow and may affect the unit’s ability to
function properly. Periodically cleaning the unit’s vents will help assure
maximum cooling efficiency.
Airflow
Proper airflow is critical to the performance of the WhisperKOOL unit. Any
obstruction to the intake and exhaust ports on either side of the unit will
compromise the unit’s ability to cool. Make sure the WhisperKOOL unit fan vents
are clear. Check the front and rear intake vents for any possible obstruction.
There should be a minimum clearance of three feet directly in front of the intake
and exhaust vents.
