sleeve and Wine Guardian system on the flange side of system with
bulb weather strip seal material provided, to ensure a tight seal and prevent the system from horizontal
movement.
Installing the Condensate Overflow
Condensate generation is a natural by-product of air conditioning systems. The Wine Guardian cooling
coils are designed with the understanding that optimal wine cellar humidity levels are between 55% RH
and 70%RH. If the vapor barrier of the wine cellar is poorly constructed or excessive moisture is in the
basement or surrounding area then the cooling coil may generate excessive amounts of moisture. The
condensate will appear in the form of water at the cooling coil drain pan and eventually will travel to the
board condensate removal system located below the compressor. The Wine Guardian system features
an auxiliary drainport connection located at the condenser end of the system directly below the plastic
face plate. In the event of excessive moisture we recommmend connecting the drainport as indicated
below.
Installing the Drain Line
√
The drain line must extend from the system to an external drain or disposal site. Do not
use drain tubing any smaller than 1/4 inch inside dimension on the system.
√
If no floor drain is available, use a bucket. Do not extend the drain below the rim of the
bucket. Empty the bucket periodically.
Allow enough height for the drain line to function properly. If draining into a nearby sink, the system
must be elevated higher than the rim of the sink in order for the water to drain by gravity. Install with
a ¼ inch per linear foot of pitch.
See Accessories and Optional Equipment section for informa-
tion about the condensate pump.
