WhisperKOOL Self-Contained/Fully-Ducted Wine Cellar Cooling Systems


WhisperKOOL Self Contained/Fully-Ducted - Extreme Series

Self Contained/Fully-Ducted - Extreme Series


  • Reliable starting and running performance, even under the most extreme outdoor conditions
  • Operates in extreme environments.
  • 55 degree temperature differential.

There are three different versions of our Extreme units:

Extreme tiR fully ducted (FD)

This product is intended for fully ducted installations. Fully ducted units are for customers who don’t want to see their unit in the cellar. The duct plenums for the evaporator and condenser will be included with your purchase. This unit also comes with a KDT Plus remote controller and thermostat. The controller can be mounted outside the cellar, allowing you to monitor your cellar temperature without needing to enter. The controller can be mounted up to 50 feet away from the Extreme unit.

NOTE: If you are planning to place this unit in the attic and use ducting, please contact our sales team for pricing. You may not need ducting equipment for the condenser side of the system.

Extreme tiR Self Contained

This product is intended for through-the-wall installations. It is an “upgrade” to the Extreme ti because it uses the KDT Plus remote controller and thermostat. The duct plenums for the evaporator and condenser can be purchased separately. The controller can be mounted outside the cellar, allowing you to monitor your cellar temperature without needing to enter. The controller can be mounted up to 50 feet away from the Extreme unit.

NOTE: If this unit will be installed through an exterior wall, you will need to purchase an exterior housing to protect the unit. If this unit will be installed through an interior wall, the hot air exhaust may be redirected to another location using the condenser ducting plenum kit.

Extreme ti

This product functions in the same way as the tiR and is intended for through-the-wall installation. The difference between the ti and tiR is that the controller and display will be located on the front face of the unit. In order to monitor your cellar conditions, you will need to physically enter your cellar.

Split/Ductless System

Split/Ductless System


The Wine Guardian ductless split wine-cellar cooling unit is an entirely new, cutting edge system. It’s versatile enough for either surface mounting or space-saving through-the-wall mounting, while providing the flexibility of a split system. If you are the owner of a small wine cellar but have limited or no room for mechanical equipment or if you are unable to accommodate ductwork, this unit is the ideal wine cellar conditioner for you. The Wine Guardian wine cellar ductless split system offers high ambient protection in a sleek, newly styled condensing unit. The condensing unit comes in a small footprint, giving it the ability to mount to a variety of structures.

The ductless split wine cellar cooling system has several different options available.  The available electric heater is a factory-mounted option that will protect your wine cellar from cold ambient temperatures. A standalone humidifier is a necessary addition if the wine cellar consistently sees low relative humidity (RH) levels. Lastly, Wine Guardian’s remote monitoring and sensing system allows the user to place up to three (3) remote sensors in the wine cellar to monitor average cellar conditions at different locations in the cellar (near the ceiling, near the floor, etc). This information is continuously relayed to the cooling unit and to the remote interface controller.

Standard Features

  • Commercial-grade, corrosion-resistant construction for long-term durability
  • Fan-coil can be mounted through-the-wall or surface mount— exclusive to this unit
  • Condensing unit operating capacities from 40°F/4°C to 115°F/46°C
  • Condensing unit standard with outdoor enclosure
  • Small footprint— fan coil fits well within racking or above a doorway
  • Quiet and efficient operation
  • Adjustable louvers

Options

  • Available electric heater
  • Standalone humidifier
  • Remote monitoring and sensing
  • Low ambient protection (to a minimum of 0°F/-18°C)
  • Serving Temperature Cooling
