    I I . O v e r v i e w  CellarPro Cooling Capacity* Each of our cooling units includes sizing guidelines that are based on R19 insulation throughout the cellar and 85F peak ambient temperatures outside the cellar.* To find the BTUH output for each of our 1800 cooling units at 55F and 60F, and the thermal loads for various-size cellars, refer to the table below.
  • Page 7 CellarPro cooling units are not designed to generate heat inside the cellar, so if temperatures inside the cellar drop below proper wine storage temperatures, the cooling unit cannot increase the temperature inside the cellar.
  • Page 8 Interior walls 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 stripping...
  • Page 9 Drain lines are recommended for installations in warm and/or humid environments; however, the drain line does not replace the requirement for a cellar to be properly constructed with proper insulation, moisture barrier and airtight seals. When using a drain line, you must create a condensate trap as follows: As shown above, the drain line should drop, then rise (but stay below the height of the fitting), and then drop again, and must terminate in air, not liquid After installing the trap, it must be charged with water as shown.

    I I I . I n s t a l l a t i o n I n s t r u c t i o n s – W i n e C e l l a r s CellarPro cooling units are designed to be installed THROUGH THE WALL, with ample open space on the sides and rear of the cooling unit.
  • Page 11 The front of the cooling unit can be mounted using optional mounting clips (available for purchase from CellarPro), as follows: Alternatively, the front of the cooling unit can be supported by a shelf and a diagonal brace. The shelf can be up to 13.25” inches wide, and should be positioned on the right side of the cooling unit so that it doesn’t restrict the exhaust vent below the...
  • Page 12 Proper ventilation is critically important for the proper operation of your CellarPro cooling unit. The CellarPro cooling unit blows a significant amount of hot air through the top or the rear of the cooling unit, and the hot air must be exhausted into a space that is at least as large as the wine cellar in order for the heat to properly dissipate.
  • Page 13 2. Condenser Air Exhaust (Rear or Top). Condenser air can be exhausted either through the top or the rear of the cooling unit. CellarPro units have interchangeable vent panels that can be swapped between the top and the rear of the cooling unit to match the configuration of your cellar and exhaust space.
  • Page 14 1. Evaporator Air Intake. The evaporator coils are located on the face of the cooling unit behind the grill. CellarPro cooling units are designed to be mounted at the highest point inside wine cellars, so that warm air – which rises – will be the first to pass over the evaporator coils, which will remove the heat from the air.
  • Page 15  Power Requirement CellarPro 1800 cooling systems require a dedicated 15-amp circuit. We recommend using a surge protector to protect the internal components in case of a power surge. The cooling unit uses approximately 3 amps during its “on” cycle. The cooling unit also offers a grounded 115V AC outlet, which is rated for 3 amps.
  • Page 16 2. If your cellar comes with a grill(s), remove and discard the grill(s) on top of the cellar. You do not need a grill with the CellarPro cooling unit. 3. Pull the power cord through the back of the cellar.
  • Page 17 5 minutes. Check that cold air is being produced by the unit. PLEASE NOTE: CellarPro cooling systems are programmed with a 3-minute delay at start-up to protect its internal components.
  • Page 18 7. Install the cooling unit by following the removal instructions described above in reverse. 8. A complete and proper seal must be made between the cellar and the cooling unit to ensure that outside air does not enter the cellar. Use butyl adhesive tape to seal the perimeter where the cooling unit touches the cellar by rolling the tape with your fingers into a thin (pencil diameter) "rope", then press the tape into the cracks where the cooling unit touches the cellar.

    V . O p e r a t i n g I n s t r u c t i o n s Overview Please follow the instructions in Section I prior to turning on your CellarPro cooling unit. CellarPro cooling units are designed to maintain optimal conditions for wine storage and aging.
  • Page 20 Minimum Set Point to reduce the cycle “on” time. Most wine collectors store their wine in the range of 55 - 60°F. CellarPro cooling units are designed to maintain appropriate levels of humidity, ranging from 50 to 70 percent, inside wine cellars. In order to increase or decrease humidity inside the cellar, the Fon setting can be changed as described in the “Advanced...

  • Page 25 (ie the fan on the HOT side) is operating. If it is NOT operating, turn “off” the unit immediately. 3. Contact CellarPro for further assistance. Serious damage to the compressor may occur if the compressor continues to run without the fan.
  • Page 26 (CellarPro Filter + Frame Kit 1800/2000 #1368) are compatible with the airflow requirements of CellarPro equipment, and are designed to capture more dust and particles than other synthetic filters. The synthetic fibers are bonded with a fire retardent resin, and meet UL Class 2 flame retardance requirements (maximum temperature is 220 degrees).

  • Page 30 Please send pictures of the installation, front and rear, to info@cellarpro.com with the pictures attached. We need 4 pictures: a closeup of the entire unit AND a picture showing the unit in the installed environment for both the front and the rear of the cooling unit.
  • Page 31  The Cooling Unit Is Dripping The cooling unit is designed to remove excess moisture from inside the cellar, which collects in the drip pan of the cooling unit. Excess moisture can occur when the cooling unit runs constantly, when the Minimum Set Point is too low and/or when the cellar doesn’t have a good seal from the outside environment.
  • Page 32: Limited Warranty
