customer service. If you have any questions about your system, please call us at 1-800-343-9463 or visit cellarcool.com.
Using the Manual
This owner’s manual is intended to assist in the proper maintenance of the cooling system. In order to ensure the longevity of
your cooling unit, the equipment should be installed as outlined in the technician’s manual. It is also vital to establish a proper
care and maintenance schedule. Please read and review this manual carefully and keep it for future reference.
What is the CellarCool Cooling System?
The CellarCool cooling system is a specialized refrigeration system designed for one purpose only: to maintain the optimal
temperature and humidity levels conducive to the proper storage and aging of ne wines. This system produces minimal in-cellar
noise and has the most lenient exhaust requirements. An exterior housing is required for outdoor condensing unit installations.
How Does the Cooling System Work?
Similar to the air conditioning systems used for homes, the evaporator unit and condensing units are installed in separate
locations and are connected by a refrigerant line set. The evaporator portion is commonly installed in the wine cellar, with the
condensing unit is located either outside or in a remote indoor location that is ventilated. An exterior housing is required for
outdoor condensing unit installations.
Temperature Setting
The system is designed to maintain a cellar temperature of 55°F as long as the ambient temperature does not exceed 110°F.

The performance and life of your system is contingent upon the steps you take in preparing the wine cellar.
Note: Improperly preparing your enclosure or incorrectly installing your unit may cause unit failure, leaking of condensation,
and other negative side eects.
It is highly recommended that you obtain the assistance
of a wine storage professional.
Wine storage professionals work with licensed contractors, refrigeration technicians, and racking companies to build well-insu-
lated, beautiful, and protective wine cellars. CellarCool has put together some useful tips to assist in the installation process. Our
recommendations are meant to act as a guide in the process of building a proper enclosure. Your intended location may have
specic needs which we do not address.
Wall & Ceiling Framing
Build wine cellar walls using standard 2x4 or 2x6 boards and ceiling joists without violating local or state codes in your area. As a
general rule, the thicker the walls and the higher the insulation value, the more consistent your cellar temperature will be.
Insulation
Insulation is REQUIRED in order to properly use CellarCool products. It is vital that all walls and ceilings be insulated to keep the
cellar temperature as consistent as possible during the summer and winter months. Standard berglass or rigid foam insulation
is normally used in cellar construction; in some cases,“blown-in” insulation is used. The R-value, or quality of insulation, is
determined by the rate at which heat passes through the insulation. The higher the R-value, the more resistant the insulation is
to conducting heat, and the more consistent your wine cellar’s temperature will be. Using higher R-values in insulation will lower
your operating costs and CellarCool unit run time. (R-13 is the recommended minimum; R-19 is preferred for interior cellar walls,
and R-30 for ceilings and exterior walls.)
Vapor Barrier
Water vapor creates its own pressure, separate from the ambient air pressure, and will intrude into colder/drier areas. A vapor
barrier is REQUIRED in order to prevent the intrusion of water vapor and maintain the correct cellar temperature and humidity. It
is recommended that 6-millimeter plastic sheeting be applied to the warm side of the cellar walls. The vapor barrier must also be
applied to the outside walls and ceiling. If it is impossible to reach the outside, then the plastic must be applied from within the
cellar. The most common method is to wrap the entire interior, leaving the plastic loose in the stud cavity so the insulation can
be placed between each stud. All of the walls and ceiling must be wrapped in plastic for a complete vapor barrier.
In areas of high humidity, such as Southern and Gulf States, the vapor barrier will prevent inltration of warm moist air. The moist
air can cause mold to form, and standing water in drain pans promote microbial and fungal growth that cause unpleasant odors
and indoor air quality problems. If mold is found, remove it immediately and sanitize that portion of the unit.
Note: High humidity signicantly increases the heat load on the cooling system.
Any break in the vapor barriers (cut, nail hole, over-lapping, etc.) will cause a moisture leak and must be sealed. The electric
conduit is a“duct” for vapor to travel in. The conduit should be caulked and sealed on the warm air end.
PREPARING THE WINE CELLAR

CMW 080719
Page 8 | 1-855-235-5271
Unobstructed Airflow
Unobstructed airflow to and from the system is critical for the evaporator unit and condensing units overall performance
and lifespan. A minimum of 3 feet of clearance (5 feet is ideal) on all sides is crucial. The air the fans blow needs to circulate
and either dissipate or absorb heat from the space. The more air to exchange, the more efficient the system will operate.
Note: Avoid attempting to camouflage the unit. This will restrict airflow and thus the systems ability to work efficiently.
Mounting the Evaporator Unit
The evaporator unit must be mounted within 18“ of the top of the room in order to achieve sucient cooling. As the
room cools down, the warm air will rise to the ceiling. Mounting the unit high in the room will create a consistently cool
environment by capturing the warm air and replacing it with cool air. Mounting the unit 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, and
cold air settling to the oor.
Door and Door Seal
An exterior grade (1¾”) door must be installed as a cellar door.
It is essential that weather stripping is attached to all 4 sides of
the doorjamb. A bottom “sweep”or threshold is also required.
The door must have a very good vapor seal to prevent warmer
moist air from leaking into the cellar. One of the most common
problems with cooling systems running continually is due to
the door not sealing properly. In cases where glass doors
are used and the room size is close to the recommended
system size, the next larger size CellarCool system should
be used. This will compensate for the insulation loss due to the
lower insulating rating of glass.

Ambient Temperature Factor
The cooling system has the ability to cool a wine cellar eciently to 55°F as long as the ambient temperature of the
area that it is exhausting to does not exceed 110°F. Therefore, you want to exhaust the condensing unit in a space which will not
exceed 110°F. Otherwise the system will not have the capacity to keep the wine at a desirable 55°F.
Ventilation
The necessity of dissipating heat away from the condensing unit is critical to the unit’s performance and cannot be overstated. As
the system operates and cools, a greater amount of heat is generated on the condensing side of the system. Adequate ventilation
is required in order to dissipate heat away from the condensing unit. If ventilation is inadequate, the exhaust will heat up the area
or room and adversely aect the system’s ability to cool. In some cases, it may be advisable to install a vent fan to dissipate heat
within the exhaust area on the condensing side of the system. However, you must have a fresh air inlet as well.
Note: If you are unsure about having adequate ventilation in your install location, please
contact us to assess your specic installation at [e-mail] or 1-855-235-5271.
WARNING! Allowing your system to operate in high ambient temperatures for
extended periods of time will greatly decrease the life of your system and void
your warranty. The cooler the temperature of the air entering the condenser coil,
the more cooling capacity the system has. The less heat gain through the common
wall, the less the electricity consumption.

SYSTEM OPERATION
The cooling system is equipped with the hardware needed to support a 24-volt air conditioning thermostat (not included).
Initial Start-Up
Set the thermostat to COOL and fan switch to AUTO.
Lower the set point to the desired cellar temperature. (A
temperature of 55°F is the recommended set point.) See
thermostat instructions for details.
Normal System Cycle
The thermostat should turn the cooling system on when
it senses a temperature one (1) degree higher than the set
point. See thermostat instructions for details.
Anti-Short Cycle
Most thermostats have a safety feature that will prevent
the condensing unit from cycling on and o within a short
period of time. During the anti-short cycle, the condensing
unit will typically remain o for 5-7 minutes. See thermostat
instructions for details.
Fan Operation
If the fan switch on the thermostat is in the AUTO position, it
will run only during the cooling cycle. If the fan switch on the
thermostat is in the ON position, the fan will continuously run
until the switch is set back to the AUTO position.
Operation in Low Ambient Temperatures
The condensing unit comes equipped with a LAC (Low
Ambient Control). The LAC is a three-way modulating valve that
responds to discharge pressure. When the discharge pressure
falls below the valve’s dome pressure, the valve modulates
open to the discharge port which allows discharge gas to
bypass the condenser. Mixing the discharge gas with the liquid
creates high pressure at the condenser outlet, reducing the
ow and causing liquid to backup in the condenser. Flooding
the condenser reduces the area available for condensing.
This reduction in condenser surface area results in a rise in
condensing pressure during cold ambient conditions.
The condensing unit controller is preset at the factory. The
cut-in pressure is preset to 25psi and the cut-out pressure at
15psi. During low ambient temperatures (40°F or below), it will
be necessary to adjust the cut-in pressure to 10-15psi (15psi
is preferred) and the cut-out to 5psi to ensure compressor
startup. See page 11 for instructions on adjusting the cut-in
and cut-out pressures of the condensing unit.
NOTE: To ensure correct system operation, the 24V thermostat
must be placed inside the wine cellar, preferably in a central
location away from any airow.

CellarCool offers accessories to enhance and customize your wine cooling unit:
Exterior Housing
Protects the condensing unit from the weather elements when the unit is located outside.
Condensate Pump Kit
The condensate pump kit is designed as an automatic condensate removal pump for water dripping out of our evaporator unit’s
(Fan Coil Unit’s) drain line. The pump is controlled by a float/switch mechanism that turns the pump on when approximately 2¼”
of water collects in the tank, and automatically switches off when the tank drains to approximately 1¼”. The condensate pump kit
allows the excess condensate to be pumped up to 20 ft. away from the unit.
