INTRODUCTION
Customer Service
Thank you for purchasing a WhisperKOOL cooling system. We strive to provide the highest-quality products and the best
possible customer service. If you have any questions about your system, please call us at 1-800-343-9463 or visit
WhisperKOOL.com.
Using the Manual
This manual is intended to assist in the proper maintenance of the cooling system. In order to ensure the longevity of your
cooling unit, the equipment should be installed as outlined in the technician’s manual. It is also vital to establish a proper care
and maintenance schedule. Please read and review this manual carefully and keep it for future reference.
What is the WhisperKOOL Cooling System?
The WhisperKOOL cooling system is a specialized refrigeration system designed for one purpose only: to maintain the optimal
temperature and humidity levels conducive to the proper storage and aging of ne wines. This system produces minimal in-cellar
noise and has the most lenient exhaust requirements. An exterior housing is required for outdoor condensing unit installations.
How Does the Cooling System Work?
Similar to the air conditioning systems used for homes, the evaporator unit (fan coil unit) and condensing units are installed
in separate locations and are connected by a refrigerant line set. The evaporator portion is commonly installed in the wine
cellar, with the condensing unit is located either outside or in a remote indoor location that is ventilated. An exterior housing is
required for outdoor condensing unit installations.
Temperature Setting
The system is designed to maintain a cellar temperature of 55°F as long as the ambient temperature does not exceed 110°F.
WARRANTY REGISTRATION
In order to activate the warranty of your system, the verication and operational
documentation must be completed by the certied refrigeration technician
installing your system and submitted via mail, fax, or e-mail.

BEFORE YOU START
1-800-343-9463
1. Inspect all components prior to installation. If damage is found, please contact your distributor or WhisperKOOL Customer
Service at 1-800-343-9463.
2. Each evaporator unit requires a dedicated 115V, 15-amp circuit. The condensing unit requires a dedicated 230V single-
phase 15-amp circuit. Use a surge protector with the unit. Do not use a GFI (ground fault interrupter) line.
3. You are REQUIRED to install a drain line to remove condensation from each evaporator unit.
4. The warranty is not active until a warranty checklist has been received, reviewed, and approved.
5. The system is intended for use in properly designed and constructed wine cellars. Hire a professional wine storage
consultant with a valid contractor’s license to build your wine cellar.
6. WhisperKOOL requires that all split systems be installed by a certified HVAC-R technician only. NATE or equivalent is
recommended.
7. It is vital that the units be set apart and oriented so that the return air from one unit does not recirculate into the supply air of
the other unit.
If you encounter a problem with your WhisperKOOL system, please refer to the Troubleshooting Guide. If you have any further
questions or concerns, or need assistance, please contact WhisperKOOL’s Customer Service at 1-800-343-9463. Please be sure all
testing has been completed prior to contacting Customer Service. Please have your results ready for your representative.
