NOTE: WhisperKOOL units are manufactured in the USA and tested prior to shipment. Please leave the WhisperKOOL unit in its original box until you are ready for installation. If the unit is to be stored for any length of time prior to installation, ensure that the unit is stored on a flat level surface in the upright position. This will allow you to move the product safely without damaging it.

Insulation Insulation is REQUIRED in order to properly use WhisperKOOL products.

Standard fiberglass or rigid foam insulation is normally used in cellar construction;...
NOTE: Do not attempt to mount the unit in a wall recess or attempt to camouflage or cover the unit with any sort of aftermarket grille, accessory, etc. This can restrict airflow, prevent the unit from working properly, and void the warranty. Please feel free to call WhisperKOOL Customer Service with any questions or concerns regarding installation requirements.

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.
PREPARING THE UNIT FOR INSTALLATION The WhisperKOOL Unit requires a dedicated 115-volt, 15-amp circuit. The unit draws a large number of amps during its initial startup. By designating a dedicated circuit breaker, you will guarantee the unit has enough power to run effectively.
Using two 2x4s at 14.5 inches in length and eight 6d nails, secure the upper and lower supports to the right and left studs, just inside the sheetrock. Make sure that the internal height remains at 16 inches (2000/3000/4000) so that the WhisperKOOL unit will fit snugly through the framed cut-out.
PREPARING THE UNIT FOR INSTALLATION Single-Piece Mounting Bracket The SC Series utilizes a single-piece mounting bracket. This sturdy bracket frames the installation location and secures the unit to the wall. Applying Insulation Tape Locate the six-foot piece of black foam tape included with the unit. Align one end of the foam tape with the upper left corner of the rear side of the mounting bracket.
The screws should penetrate the studs as well as the upper and lower supports to provide adequate support for the WhisperKOOL unit (see illustration). Seal all cracks and gaps around the WhisperKOOL unit with an air- tight sealant or caulking to prevent air leakage.
DRAIN LINE Condensation Drain Line Tube All units come equipped with a drain line for additional removal of excess condensate. This is a backup system to the condensate evaporator. It is mandatory to install the drain line attachment. The condensate evaporator will heat and dissipate the excess moisture through the rear of the unit.
SC PRO Series LIQUID-MEASURING THERMOSTAT SYSTEM (BOTTLE PROBE) WhisperKOOL cooling units come with a liquid-temperature-measuring thermostat. The self-calibrating bottle probe contains a sensor chip, which communicates back and forth with the thermostat. This results in a consistent tempera- ture setting and accuracy. Wine should be kept at a very precise, controlled temperature and humidity. By measuring the liquid temperature rather than air, the unit will operate 75–80% of the time.
40°F, the display will blink three times and Setpoint continue normal operation. The setpoint is preset at the factory (WhisperKOOL) to 55°F. It Bottle Probe Failure Protection can be adjusted by the customer between 50°F and 70°F (in In the event that a bottle probe should fail, the APST (Advance 1°F increments).
