    Cellar Construction Guide This is only a guide and shall be considered as the minimum requirements. All interior walls, ceilings and floors shall have a vapor barrier and a minimum of R13 insulation. All exterior walls and ceiling shall have a vapor barrier and a minimum of R19 insulation.
  • Page 5: Features & Specifications

    Features and Specifications • WM-2500~8500SSLWC split water-cooled low-profile cooling systems are designed to provide a cold environment between 50~65 °F with a humidity range within 50~70% RH for a properly insulated wine cellar. • These temperature and humidity ranges are optimized for long term storage of wine like that in natural caves.
  • Page 6 If the condensing unit will operate below 50°F, install a low CAUTION ambient condition kit. NOTE The cooling capacity is determined under 55°F cellar temperature, 75°F cellar ambient temperature and 90°F condensing unit ambient temperature, with R13 interior and R19 exterior insulations.

How to adjust defrost settings In case there is excessive frost, the parameters FnC = C-y, idF = 4 and MdF = 20 can be used to avoid frost.
  • Page 11: Care Guide

    Care Guide In general, always unplug system or disconnect power while doing care. 1. Condenser Water Line Cleaning • To clear any sediment that may accumulate, the water regulating valve may be manually flushed. • Insert screwdrivers under both sides of the valve spring guide and lift upwards to flush.
