Ambient Temperature Factor
The cooling unit has the ability to cool a wine cellar efficiently to 55°F as long as the ambient temperature of the area
that it is exhausting to does not exceed 85°F. Therefore, you want to exhaust the unit in a room which will not exceed
85°F. Without proper heat dissipation the unit will not have the capacity to keep the wine at a desirable 55°F.

Ventilation
The necessity of dissipating heat away from the unit is critical to the unit’s performance and cannot be overstated.
As the unit operates and cools, a greater amount of heat is generated on the exhaust side of the unit. Adequate
ventilation is required in order to dissipate heat away from the unit. If ventilation is inadequate, the exhaust will heat
the area or room and adversely affect the unit’s ability to cool. In some cases, it may be advisable to install a vent fan
to dissipate heat from within the exhaust area. However, you must have a fresh air inlet as well. If your unit requires
ducting, please contact WhisperKOOL to obtain a specially designed ducting plenum for the unit.
Using any other ducting system will void the warranty.
Note: If you are unsure about having adequate ventilation in your install location, please
contact us to assess your specific installation at [email protected] or 1-800-343-9463.
WARNING! Allowing your unit to operate in high ambient temperatures for extended
periods of time will greatly decrease the life of your unit and void your warranty.
