Unobstructed airflow to and from both the evaporator and condenser is a critical factor in the system’s over-

all performance.  Make sure there is a 3 ft. horizontal clearance in the front of both units.  This will assure that 

the air can circulate in an efficient manner.  Avoid any attempt to camouflage the evaporator by installing 

racking in front of the unit. This will restrict the airflow and reduce system performance.

If you are mounting your evaporator in the cellar, it should be mounted within 18“ 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 evaporator high in the room will create a consistently cool environment by capturing the warm air and 

replacing it with cool air.  Mounting the evaporator 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.

Some systems are designed to have the air exchange happen out of the cellar using duct work.  This allows 

the evaporator unit to placed in a variety of positions around the cellar and in some models up to 25 duct 

feet away.  The return air (from cellar to unit) needs to be located low in the cellar with the supply air (from 

unit to cellar) should be located high in the cellar. This greatly increases the efficiency of the cooling system 

by allowing the cold air travel throughout the entire cellar space and absorb as much heat as possible.
