Preparing the
Wine Cellar
-5-
Unobstructed Airflow
Unobstructed airflow to and from
the unit is a critical factor in
the
unit’s overall performance.
Make sure there is a three-
foot horizontal clearance in the
front of the unit. This will assure
that the unit can move the air
around in an efficient manner.
Avoid the attempt to camouflage
the unit by installing racking in
front of the unit. This will restrict
airflow and thus the unit’s ability
to work efficiently.
Mounting the Unit
The unit should be mounted
within 18 inches of the top of
the room in order to achieve
sufficient cooling. As the room
cools down, the warm air will
rise to the ceiling. Mounting
the WhisperKOOL high in the
room will create a consistently
cool environment by capturing
the warm air and replacing it
with cool air. Mounting the unit
low in the room will result in
a temperature variation in the
room due to the unit’s inability to
draw warm air from the ceiling of
the cellar to the unit itself.
Door
An exterior grade (1 3/4”) door must be installed as a cellar door. It is very important that weather stripping
is attached to all 4 sides of the doorjam. A bottom “sweep” or threshold is also required. The door must have
a very good seal to keep the cool cellar air from escaping out of the cellar. One of the most common problems
with cooling units running continually is due to the door not sealing properly. In cases where glass doors are
used and the room size is close to the recommended unit size, the next larger size WhisperKOOL should be
used. This will compensate for the insulation loss due to the inefficient door.
