If you're using a 28 bottle winador, my guess is that it's compressor driven?
I don't know of any 28 bottle thermoelectrics.
My guess is you're getting a Frigidaire at Lowe's?
In any event, if it's not thermoelectric, you'll need to retrofit the unit with fans to evaporate the water that will collect on the evaporator before it ends up in the drain tray. It's not a big deal but it MUST be done.
If it's a thermoelectric, scratch that other stuff.
I use 2 pounds(+) of beads in my 28 bottle Frigidaire beside my desk here. I'm in the process of cutting that way down. I'm making bags that go on the ceiling, held by velcro. I'm gonna hide some more under drawers and get rid of everything that's taking up space in my drawers.
I only use that much because the more you use, the faster the recovery time. It's complete overkill and not necessary, but I have them, so I use a lot.
