installed by an EPA certified refrigeration technician.
WINEMATE split system is shipped as components and is ready for use only after a
certified refrigeration technician has properly installed, evacuated, charged and tested the
system. Proper installation is critical. Vinotemp can only warrant the quality of the
components. The installation and proper operation of the system must be warranted by
the installer. Installation of the system must be done in accordance with all state and local
building and electrical codes.
The condensing unit and evaporator unit are connected by a liquid line and an insulated
suction line that are supplied by the installer. These lines must be properly sized for the
distance between the two units. After the units and the lines are installed, the system must
be pressure tested. If no leaks are found, evacuate and charge system. Refrigerant amount
will vary depending on the length of line set.
