KOLDWAVE KOMPAC SERIES (KOOLETTE, KOMPAC, AND KING KOMPAC)
Conventional Installation
For proper installation, follow these simple steps:
A. Shut off cold water supply.
B. Install “T” between supply valve and faucet of cold
water line.
C. Connect water shut-off valve to branch of “T”.
D. Insert 3/8" pipe nipple in discharge end of water
shut-off valve.
E. Apply coupling over 3/8" pipe nipple and secure.
Note: An alternate installation method can be
achieved by drilling a 5/16" diameter hole in the cold
water line and assembling a saddle valve to the line.
Complete installation by following steps “D” and
“E”.
CHECKOUT OF UNIT OPERATION
Kompac Series air conditioners and heat pumps
provide cooling and heating,respectively. This is
accomplished by setting the operating controls on
either of the following panels:
Fan Only
Plug unit in. Depress the upper mode selector switch
to the right for fan only operation. Press down on the
two position switch located below the three position
switch to the right for high fan speed; to the left for low
fan speed.
Cooling Cycle
Depress the upper mode selector switch to the left
(cool) for cooling. Set the thermostat knob by turning it
clockwise, below the actual room dry bulb temperature
level. The blue-colored light located next to the upper
rocker switch on the panel will illuminate, indicating
cooling mode operation. Allow unit ot run with fan
speed set on high for twenty minutes, record
temperature of air entering the filter and temperature
of air leaving the air discharge grille. In a room
temperature of approximately 80°F dry bulb, air
coming from the grille should be approximately 15°F
cooler than the air going to the filter. This cycle
reduces the dry bulb temperature and lowers the wet
bulb temperature by condensing water on the cooling
coil surface. The condenser leaving water temperature
should be between 95-100°F if water flow adjusted
propertly.
Heating Cycle
Depress the upper mode selector switch to the left
(heat) for heating. Set the thermostat knob, by turning
it counterclockwise, above actual room dry bulb
temperature level. The amber-colored light located next
to the upper rocker switch on the panel will illuminate,
indicating heating mode operation. Allow unit to run
with fan speed set on high for twenty minutes, record
temperature of air entering the filter and temperature
of air leaving the air discharge grille. In a room
temperature of approximately 70°F dry bulb, air
coming from the grille should be approximately 30°F
warmer than the air going to the filter. The condenser
entering water temperature must not be lower than
50°F. The temperature of the water coming from the
“water out” fitting should be 7-8 degrees colder than
the water going into the unit.
Water temperatures described for cooling and heating
modes are based on units with pressure actuated
water regulating valves installed as standard
equipment at the factory.
