Cellar cooling

What to know before you buy

  • Load first, model second

    Room volume, insulation, glass area and the temperature next door decide the size. The model number is the answer, not the question.

  • Where does the heat go?

    Every unit rejects heat somewhere: a garage, a mechanical room, outside. Self-contained units need that space behind the wall; split systems move it.

  • Noise is a design decision

    A through-wall unit next to a dining room will be heard. Ducted and split systems put the compressor where nobody is sitting.

  • Humidity matters as much as temperature

    Review the room’s humidity conditions alongside cooling. Some systems offer humidity management; a separate humidifier may be appropriate for other rooms. Confirm the selected equipment’s capabilities before ordering.

Cooling belongs in the cellar design from the start. Wine Hardware’s selection includes WhisperKOOL, Wine Guardian, CellarPro and CellarCool, with through-wall, split, ceiling-mount and ducted arrangements. The right layout depends on more than a room-volume label: the equipment position, exhaust route and service access all need a place in the plan.

Bring room measurements, construction details and photos to our Walnut Creek team. Compare the specific models and their included controls, then confirm installation materials and freight before ordering. Ask about fit at Wine Hardware.

More on Shop Cooling Units

Shop CellarCool

Compare the CellarCool CX2200, CX3300 and CX4400 for a through-wall cooling arrangement. These units combine digital controls, dynamic airflow and flexible mounting brackets. Their published capacities and dimensions differ, so an existing wall opening is useful information to bring into the selection conversation.

Tell Wine Hardware which unit you are replacing or send a plan of the new cellar. Confirm the room load, wall opening, exhaust space and drainage before ordering. Our Walnut Creek team can help identify the model and discuss delivery and installation expectations. Ask about fit at Wine Hardware.

Straightforward through-wall cooling at the sensible end of the price list. The CX2200, CX3300 and CX4400 are rated for cellars up to 300, 650 and 1,000 cubic feet. When the room is small, well insulated and the budget matters, this is where we start.

Shop CellarPro

Start with the cabinet and its surroundings when comparing CellarPro cooling. The 1800QT and 1800XT in this selection are indoor units with digital controls, adjustable humidity control and a choice of top or rear hot exhaust. Their output and intended applications differ, especially when the equipment sits near living space or faces warmer conditions.

Send the cabinet or cellar details to Wine Hardware, including the existing unit if this is a replacement. Confirm airflow, electrical requirements and any separate duct or cold-weather options before arranging delivery. Ask about fit at Wine Hardware.

Compact, hard-working through-wall units for closets, under-stair cellars and large wine cabinets. The 1800XT is rated for cellars up to 250 cubic feet; the 1800QT is the version built for cabinets near living areas.

Before you order

Questions about shop cooling units

What size cooling unit do I need?
It depends on the volume of the room, how it is insulated, how much glass it has and how warm the space next door gets. As a guide from the manufacturers' own ratings: a CellarPro 1800XT is for cellars up to 250 cubic feet, a WhisperKOOL Extreme 3500ti up to 800, an Extreme 8000ti up to 2,000, and the Wine Guardian ducted range runs from 400 to 8,500. Send us the numbers and we will do it properly.
Self-contained, ducted or split?
Self-contained units combine their main components; ducted systems connect the equipment to the cellar through ductwork; split systems separate components. Compare the exact models’ installation, sound, heat rejection and service requirements for the room.
Can I install it myself?
Installation requirements depend on the exact model. Through-wall, ducted and split systems have different requirements for mounting, airflow, power and drainage. Split systems also require qualified refrigeration work; review the manufacturer’s instructions with your installer before ordering.
