Accessories and Optional Equipment

Heating Coils

An optional heating coil is built in and requires no additional power source. The electric
heating option is factory installed and includes primary and secondary over-temperature
protection devices per UL and NEC.

Duct Collars and Flexible Ducts

Ducting for the Wine Guardian is sold in kits by size for each unit. Each kit contains two
adapter collars, one 8m length of round flexible duct and two straps. The number of duct kits
needed depends on the wine cellar layout and application. The size of the kit depends on the
model Wine Guardian selected. Follow installation instructions carefully. Poorly or incorrectly
installed ducts can degrade the performance of your unit dramatically.

Extended Compressor Warranty

The Wine Guardian uses only the best commercially available compressors on the market.
However, since the compressor is the single most expensive component in the unit, it is
recommended that you purchase the extended warranty option.
Low Ambient Option – Standard on all Wine Guardian Ducted Split Systems
A factory-installed low ambient option is available that makes the Wine Guardian capable of
exposure to low ambient temperatures. This feature controls the condenser fan operation based
on head pressure and heats the compressor oil reservoir. The low ambient option is
recommended whenever the condenser section is exposed to air temperatures below 40 degrees
F.

Condensate Pump

An optional Wine Guardian automatic condensate pump is available to pump the water to a
remote sink, drain pipe or outside. It requires a separate 120 volt electrical outlet.

Humidifier

Another popular option for the Wine Guardian is a humidifier. The humidifier is available for
split system installation and can be retrofitted onto any existing Wine Guardian unit. Each
humidifier is furnished with a communication cable connection to plug into the side of the
Wine Guardian fan coil unit. It is then controlled by the same remote interface controller that
is used for the operation of the Wine Guardian unit. The humidifier mounts directly onto the
Wine Guardian unit and requires a water supply and drain for operation.
