Carefully remove your WhisperKOOL unit from the box. Do not destroy your packing material, as it
provides the only safe means of transporting the unit. Units weigh 65–100 pounds and are cumbersome
for one person to carry. We recommend that you get someone else to help you during the installation
process.
Testing Unit
Place the WhisperKOOL system on a tabletop to
prepare it for installation and testing. Locate the
by-pass plug and insert it into the thermostat
plug, located on the front of the WhisperKOOL
System. Next, plug the system into a live electrical
outlet and turn the unit on. The system should
begin cooling. The system may take up to 10 to 15
minutes before running cool. Once the operation
has been tested, turn the unit off, unplug the unit
from the electrical outlet, remove the by-pass
plug, and install thermostat.
Note: If the system does not seem to be
running cool after 15 minutes, please refer to
the Troubleshooting Guide on page 19.
Before installation, use the by-pass
test plug to test the unit.
Attach precut foam tape to the unit’s ange.

Test Plug
Applying Insulation Tape
Locate the four precut pieces of black foam tape
included with your system. There should be two larger
pieces and two smaller pieces. Start with the large
pieces. Peel back the white-paper adhesive covering,
and attach the large pieces to the sides of the unit
flange. Then follow with the two smaller pieces on the
top and bottom. This foam creates a tight seal between
the unit’s flange and the wall (see illustration).
Note: Failure to install foam strips may void the
warranty.
Liquid Measuring Thermostat System
To assure a consistent temperature, place bottle probe
approximately 3 feet away from the air output and not
in the flow of the air.
