Planning the Installation

Addressing Items in the Planning Process

√ Where to locate the unit? Should it be built into the wall or mounted remote and ducted into

the cellar.

√ How to mount the unit?
√ Decide where to locate the supply and return grilles in the room to achieve the temperature

gradient and circulation preferred.

√ Locate the electrical power outlet close to the unit. Do not use an extension cord!
√ Does the condenser heat exhaust need to be ducted away?
√ Where to locate the thermostat?
√ Where to run the drain line?
√ Are all the parts here to complete the installation?

Performing a Pre-installation Check

√ Check for the proper installation of the electrical plug configuration.
√ Check for the properly sized breaker.
√ Is the cellar built with adequate insulation and vapor barriers? See the Wine Cellar Design

Guide at the Wine Guardian’s web site www.wineguardian.com for more information.

√ Are ducts installed above the ceiling or in accessible places properly sized before being

covered.

√ Is enough space available around the unit for service and repair?
