Insulation
CellarPro cooling units are designed to be installed inside wine cellars that have proper
insulation, moisture barriers and an airtight seal from the environment outside the cellar.
Interior walls and floor should have a minimum of R-11 insulation, and a vapor barrier
on the warm side of the
insulation. The ceiling should
have a minimum of R-19
insulation and a vapor barrier on the
warm side of the insulation.
Doors also should be
insulated and tightly sealed
with weather s t r i p p i n g
around the perimeter of
the door. Surface-mounted
fixtures are recommended
ov er recessed lighting, which can
allow air to leak into the
cellar.
It is important that all walls,
joints, doors and windows,
electrical outlets and/or
switches, pipes, vents and light fixtures be sealed to prevent air and moisture from entering
the cellar. If there is a leak in the cellar, the cooling unit will build up excess condensation.
The condensate pump drain line must be routed to an appropriate water drain.
Fan Speeds
Your fan speed setting will depend on the thermal load on the wine cellar, and the
resulting BTU that is required to cool and maintain your wine cellar at the desired
temperature.
Ventilation
Adequate ventilation is critically important for the proper operation of your CellarPro
cooling unit.



10 V10.19
Outside the Cellar
Condensing unit Air Exhaust. Condensing units create significant hot air which must
be exhausted into an appropriately-sized space in order for the heat to dissipate. If
the space is constrained and/or too small, the heat will not dissipate. In this event, the
cooling unit will be forced to re-circulate its hot air exhaust and/or the static pressure will
back up the cooling unit. If this happens, the cooling unit’s ability to create cold air inside
the cellar will be compromised.
Condenser Air Intake. The condenser coils require access to cool air in order for the
cooling unit to produce cold air. In addition, the cooling unit must be installed so that,
after its installation, the condenser coils are accessible for periodic cleaning.
The Condensing unit cannot be ducted.
Inside the Cellar
Evaporator Air Intake
. When the warm air passes across the evaporator coils, heat is
removed from the air, and the resulting cold air is exhausted into the cellar. To ensure
proper airflow, minimum clearance of 6” is required at the air intake of the cooling unit (refer
to Evaporator Cut Sheet).
Evaporator Air Exhaust. Cold air is exhausted at the front of the cooling unit. Because
CellarPro cooling units are located at the highest point inside wine cellars, the cold air
exhaust eventually will drop to the bottom of the cellar. To ensure proper airflow and reduce
temperature stratification inside the cellar, the space in front of the cold air discharge
should be clear of any obstructions, including wine bottles, wine racks, etc. A minimum
clearance of 13” is required at the air exhaust (refer to Evaporator Cut Sheet).
We also offer a bottle probe (10 foot cord) that can be plugged into the cooling unit, as
well as 25’ and 50’ extension cords. The probe jack is located inside the ceiling mounted
housing.

III. Installation Instructions
Installation Instructions
Split System piping and wiring must be installed by a qualified Refrigeration
Technician in accordance with local and national code requirements.
Condensing Unit Installation
Indoor and Outdoor Units
 The unit is designed to operate in temperatures ranging from 0°F to 110°F. A
compressor heater (sold separately) is required for temperatures below 40°F.
Indoor Units
 Condensing units can be installed remotely from the cellar in an area protected from
direct exposure to moisture and sunlight.
 The area must have suitable ventilation to maintain an ambient temperature of
110°F or less.
 If the area does not have adequate ventilation, a vent fan should be added to supply
fresh air to the space (suggested 600CFM).
 A minimum of 12" of open air space is required in front of the condenser coils.
 Indoor units can be installed with the optional outdoor hood if additional mechanical
protection is desired.
 A minimum of 12" of open air space around the perimeter of the outdoor hood is
required.
Outdoor Units
 Condensing units must be installed with the outdoor hood if the unit will be located
outdoors. PLEASE NOTE: Our units were not designed for, and our warranty does
not cover damage from, marine exposure (within 5 miles of the ocean). In these
environments, you will need an applied coating, such as Insitu®, to protect against
corrosion that is common in coastal regions.
 A minimum of 12" of open air space around the perimeter of the outdoor hood is
required.
 The condensing unit must be mounted on the base with the holes aligned, as shown
below:

Evaporator Unit Installation
As warm air rises to the top of the cellar, the cooling unit pushes the warm air through the
evaporator coil and removes the heat from the warm air. Once cooled, the cold air is
discharged from the front of the cooling unit and circulates through the cellar. Therefore,
we recommend mounting the evaporator in the center of the cellar ceiling, with the
evaporator air exhaust directed toward the cellar door.

Dual Evaporator Mounting Options
6000Scm and 8000Scm models require two evaporators to be mounted in the cellar.
These may be mounted in either of the two orientation options shown in the drawing below.
Knockout Detail

15 V10.19
For greater flexibility, 7/8” knockouts are available in the top panel for connections to pass
through the cellar ceiling, and in the right side panel for connections running along the interior
cellar ceiling. The type of connection by knockout location is illustrated on the following Knockout
Detail drawing:

Condensate Drain Line
Each evaporator has an internal integrated condensate pump with 25 feet of ¼” PVC
drain tubing. This tubing should be routed to a suitable drain according to the following
design limits:
Condensate Pump Operation Test



17 V10.19
When the system is ready to start up, test the condensate pump before installing the
evaporator cover by powering up the system and submerging the pump in a tray filled
with water to verify the pump operates and discharges water to the final drain.
The condensate pump is self-priming. The pump activates when the water level in the
evaporator cover reaches a depth of 5/8”, and shuts off when the water level reaches
3/16”. The pump will activate an overflow alarm at a level of 1”, indicated by “CA” on the
temperature controller display. The refrigeration is disabled while this alarm condition
persists, but the pump will continue to run until the alarm is cleared.
Over time, the pump sensor may become contaminated by particles in the condensate
water causing the pump to run constantly. If this occurs, flush the sensor with clean water
through the pump sensor housing vents.

3000/4000Scm System Wiring – Option A: Dual Power / Valve Control
Under this configuration the Evaporator and Condensing units are separately powered,
and the Condensing unit turns on and off based on suction pressure, as follows:
 The Evaporator includes a factory installed liquid line solenoid valve (LLSV), which
is controlled by the Evaporator temperature controller. The Condensing unit is
controlled by a low pressure switch which reacts to the suction pressure and
senses whether the LLSV is open or closed.
 When the Evaporator temperature set-point is reached and the Evaporator turns
off, the LLSV closes, causing the system to pump down until the low pressure
switch shuts off the Condensing unit.
 When the Evaporator turns on, the LLSV opens, causing the suction pressure to
rise and activate the Condensing unit.
Field power wiring is connected to both the Evaporator and Condensing units, no
interconnecting wiring is needed between the Evaporator and Condensing unit.
Evaporator Field Power Wiring:
 Connect line lead to Evaporator terminal "L"
 Connect neutral lead to Evaporator terminal "N"
 Connect power ground to grounding lug on Evaporator
Condensing Unit Field Power Wiring:
 Connect line lead to Condensing unit terminal "L1"
 Connect neutral lead to Condensing unit terminal "L2"
 Connect power ground to grounding lug on Condensing unit.
