Breezaire WKSL 2200 Split Wine Cellar Cooling System

Is the Breezaire WKSL 2200 Right for Your Wine Cellar?

The Breezaire WKSL 2200 is a compact split wine cellar cooling system designed for small, fully enclosed wine cellars up to 265 cubic feet that require quieter operation than traditional through-the-wall units.

Because it is a split system, the compressor is installed remotely, reducing noise inside the cellar.

This model is ideal when:

• The cellar is properly insulated and vapor-sealed
• The room size does not exceed 265 cubic feet
• The installation allows for a remote condenser location
• Professional HVAC installation is available

If your cellar exceeds 265 cubic feet or cannot be properly insulated, a larger model will be required.

Also available in the Breezaire WKSL 4000, providing enhanced cooling capacity and performance for larger wine cellars up to 1000 cu. ft. compared to the WKSL 2200.

Best For / Not For

Best For:

• Wine cellars up to 265 cubic feet
• Residential interior cellars
• Noise-sensitive environments
• Projects where condenser can be located remotely
• Fully sealed and insulated rooms

Not Ideal For:

• DIY-only installations (professional HVAC required)
• Decorative wine closets without insulation
• Open-concept wine displays
• Rooms exceeding 265 cu. ft.
• Unsealed spaces without vapor barrier

Choosing the correct size is critical. An undersized unit will run continuously and struggle to maintain 55°F.

Cooling Capacity & Room Requirements

Maximum Cooling Capacity: Up to 265 cubic feet

This rating assumes:

• R-19 minimum wall insulation
• R-30 ceiling insulation
• Fully sealed vapor barrier
• Insulated exterior-grade door
• Ambient conditions within manufacturer limits

Glass walls, high ceilings, or warm surrounding areas will reduce effective capacity.

If unsure, use a load calculation before purchase.

How the WKSL 2200 Split System Works

The WKSL 2200 consists of two components:

• Fancoil (Evaporator) — installed inside the cellar
• Condenser — installed remotely (mechanical room, attic, or exterior space)

This configuration removes compressor vibration and most mechanical noise from the cellar interior.

Professional installation is required to connect refrigerant lines and properly charge the system.

Technical Specifications

These compact dimensions make the WKSL 2200 suitable for small cellar builds where space is limited.
