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 Size & Electrical Specifications Dimensions Weight Operating Required Model W” x D” x H” (lbs) Amps Circuit 1800QTL-ECX 18 x 16.5 x 10.5 2.36 15-Amp 1800QT-ECX Dedicated 2.89 1800XT-ECX 2.95 1800XTS-ECX 3.62 1800 XTSx-EC 18.1 x 22 x 10.6 4.29 15-Amp Dedicated...
- 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 cooling unit, as follows: v3.21...
- Page 12 Once the cooling unit is installed, all cracks and gaps between the cooling unit and the cellar should be sealed. We provide butyl tape (shipped in the cavity of the exhaust vent) for sealing these gaps. The butyl tape is pliable, and is designed to be rolled and stretched in your hands to fit around the entire cooling unit.
- Page 13 1. Condenser Air Intake (Rear). The condenser coils are located at the rear of the cooling unit. These coils require access to cool air in order for the cooling unit to produce cool air. The cooling unit must be installed so that, after its installation, there is access to the condenser coils at the rear of the cooling unit for periodic cleaning of the coils.
- Page 14 With our duct option, the hot side of our units can be ducted up to 50 equivalent feet per duct. When calculating equivalent feet, each 90 degree turn in the ducting approximately equals 8’ of ducting. Be sure to use gradual turns to avoid restricting airflow inside the ducting.
- 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 6. Place a heavy towel or blanket on top of the wine rack for protection. 7. IF YOU HAVE A LE CACHE MODEL 2400 WITH A CENTER POST: Remove the center post by unscrewing the screws (two at the top and two at the bottom) that attach the post to the wine cabinet.
- Page 17 10. With 7/16 socket wrench, remove the two hex head bolts that attach the cooling unit to the ceiling of the cellar. Save these bolts! Leave mounting brackets attached to the cooling unit so that the proper location can be duplicated with the replacement cooling unit.
- 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 Basic Operation The temperature inside the cellar can be increased or decreased by changing the Minimum Set Point as described later in this chapter. If the cooling unit runs too much, you can raise the Minimum Set Point to reduce the cycle “on” time. Most wine collectors store their wine in the range of 55 - 60°F.

Conditions like humidity, the Temperature Differential, and alarm settings all can be modified for custom applications. To access the advanced settings, do the following: ...
- Page 25 Standard Protection Mechanisms The cooling unit is programmed to shut down certain components to protect those components, as well as the wine inside the cellar, under the following circumstances: Scenario What it means What happens P1 Alarm Probe 1, which senses the The cooling unit enters a timed temperature inside the auto- cycle mode until Probe 1 is...
- Page 26 Maintenance The condenser coils at the back of the cooling unit will collect dust, dirt and lint over time. It is critically important to clean the coils periodically. If the condenser coils become clogged, the cooling unit will not have proper airflow and its performance and longevity will be compromised.
- Page 27 Alarms The cooling unit has both an audible notification and a visual alarm indicator (shown in “red” on the control panel) that are activated when an alarm is triggered. Please note: the HA and LA alarms are disabled during the first 23 hours of operation after the cooling unit is plugged in and/or turned on.

V I . T r o u b l e s h o o t i n g The Cooling Unit Runs Constantly The cooling capacity of the cooling unit depends on the thermal load on the wine cellar, and the resulting BTU that is required to cool and maintain the cellar at the desired temperature. - Page 29 The Cooling Unit Won’t Turn On. The cooling system is programmed with a 3-Minute Delay at Startup to protect its internal components. The HA2 Alarm has been triggered HA2 alarms should be addressed as soon as possible, otherwise permanent damage may occur to the compressor.
- Page 30 3. Check for appropriate ventilation at the rear of the cooling unit. If the space is too small or restricted for the hot air exhaust to dissipate, you may need to add a rear duct retrofit kit to separate the hot air exhaust and the fresh air intake.
- 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.
