While great effort has been made to provide accurate guidelines, BREEZAIRE cannot warrant its units to properly cool a particular enclosure. Customers are cautioned that enclosure construction, unit location and many other factors can affect the operation and performance of the unit. Therefore the suitability of the unit for a specific enclosure or application must be determined by the customer and cannot be warranted by
BREEZAIRE.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
FOR WKCE SERIES COOLING UNITS
The BREEZAIRE WKCE Series cooling units are designed to, when installed in a properly constructed enclosure, provide a constant, selectable temperature between 48°F and 62°F while maintaining the relative humidity to the proper 50% to 75%. BREEZAIRE cooling units are designed to lower the temperature, while removing only excessive moisture. In a properly constructed enclosure this process can raise the relative humidity. The unit does not add moisture to the enclosure. The unit does not include a heating system and will not warm the enclosure. The WKCE Series is not intended to cool service cabinets, which are maintained at lower temperatures and opened or entered frequently.
The Digital Electronic (Sentry III) thermostat has the following features:
Large, easy to read, green LED display.
Accurate, easy to adjust readable set points with continuous reading of enclosure temperature or displaying of set point when changing enclosure temperatures.
Power outage protection, which delays unit start up after power outages.
Blocked airflow protection, which shuts down unit and protects wine in case of high temperatures caused by condenser blockage.
Controls temperature by enclosure air sensors or optional bottle probe.
Please see the Sentry III Owners manual
The BREEZAIRE WKCE series, with the cold air discharge on the bottom of the cooling units were designed and engineered for cabinets and credenzas. However if you have looked at the BREEZAIRE WKL series cooling unit and you feel the WKCE series units will better serve your application consult your dealer for assistance.
ENCLOSURE CONSTRUCTION GUIDELINES
To use the below SIZING GUIDE, the enclosure to be cooled must be built to the following minimum specifications. If the enclosure cannot be built to these minimum specifications, consult your BREEZAIRE dealer for assistance in choosing the correct unit. BREEZAIRE cooling units are not warranted to cool a specific enclosure.
All walls, floors and ceilings should have a vapor barrier. This vapor barrier should be installed on the warm side of the insulation. All interior walls and floors should be lined with a minimum of R-11 insulation and exterior walls and ceiling insulation value should be a minimum of R-19. There should be no glass windows or doors.
WKCE series are specifically designed and engineered to be installed in cabinets and credenzas. The enclosures in which you install the cooling unit must be well insulated and air tight for the cooling unit to perform properly.
All joints, door frames, electrical outlets or switches and any pipes or vents which go through the enclosure should be sealed to prevent air and moisture leakage into the room. Concrete and brick are not insulation or moisture barriers.
Doors into the enclosure should be of minimum size, insulated to R-11 and be tightly sealed with a high quality weather stripping. Be sure to seal the bottom of the door and behind the door frame's molding.
Enclosure lighting should be of low wattage, with a timer to insure lights are not left on when the enclosure is unoccupied. Recessed lighting should not be used, as they will allow outside air to enter the enclosure.
If the ambient temperature surrounding the enclosure exceeds the enclosure's temperature by more than 25°F the units cooling capacity will be reduced. No enclosure wall should receive direct sunlight or strong wind.
Note: Glass doors and/or windows are not included in our calculations and should not be used in a wine enclosure.
