Description
Is the CellarCool CX2200 Right for Your Cellar?
The CellarCool CX2200 is designed for small residential wine cellars up to 265 cubic feet, provided the space is fully insulated, vapor sealed, and properly enclosed.
It is a self-contained through-the-wall cooling unit that vents warm air into an adjacent interior room.
If your cellar:
- Is under 265 cu ft
- Has proper insulation (R-19 walls minimum)
- Has a vapor barrier
- Is located in a climate-controlled home
This unit can reliably maintain 55°F wine storage temperature.
If your cellar includes heavy glass, high ceilings, exterior venting, or warm exhaust conditions, a larger unit or split system may be required.
Reminder: The CellarCool CX Series Wine Cooling Unit CX2200 requires the area it is releasing or exhausting its hot air doesn't exceed 85°F for your wine cellar to be at 55°F.
Available in CX2200 for 265 cu.ft wine cellar, CX3300 for 650 cu.ft wine cellar, CX4400 for 1000 cu.ft wine cellar, CX8800 for 2000 cu.ft wine cellar

What the CX2200 Is Designed For
- Small dedicated wine cellars
- Closet conversions
- Under-stair wine rooms
- Residential installations
- Temperature stability around 55°F
It is built as an entry-level, self-contained solution for compact cellars.
What the CX2200 Is NOT Designed For
To prevent performance issues and compressor stress, this unit should not be used in:
- Open basements
- Non-insulated rooms
- Exterior wall venting to outdoor air
- Commercial wine storage
- Large glass wine displays
- Exhaust rooms exceeding 85°F
- Spaces without vapor barriers
Undersizing or improper installation is the most common cause of cooling failure.

Manuals for CellarCool CX2200
Installation Requirements
The CX2200 rating assumes proper cellar construction.
Minimum Construction Standards
- R-19 wall insulation (minimum)
- R-30 ceiling insulation (recommended)
- 6-mil vapor barrier on warm side
- Fully sealed door with weatherstripping
- Dedicated 115V 20-amp outlet
- Adequate rear exhaust clearance
Exhaust Room Requirements
The unit vents warm air into an adjacent interior space.
The exhaust room must:
- Remain below 85°F
- Have sufficient air volume
- Not be tightly enclosed without ventilation
If exhaust air exceeds 85°F, cooling capacity drops and runtime increases.
Noise Level: What to Expect
The CX2200 operates at 63 dBA.
This is comparable to:
- A window air conditioner
- A standard refrigerator
It is audible inside the cellar and adjacent room.
If near-silent operation is required (dining room display cellars, luxury installations), consider a split system instead.
CX2200 vs Larger Units
| Model | Max Capacity | Noise Profile | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| CX2200 | 265 cu ft | 63 dBA | Small insulated cellars |
| CX3300 | Larger | Moderate | Medium cellars |
| Split System | Custom sized | Very low | Luxury / glass-heavy rooms |
Choosing a unit too small leads to:
- Continuous runtime
- Failure to reach 55°F
- Shortened compressor life
- Increased energy costs
When near the size limit, sizing up is safer.
Warranty Coverage
- 2-Year Parts & Labor Warranty
- 5-Year Compressor Warranty
Warranty coverage assumes proper installation and electrical compliance.
Improper construction or incorrect circuit installation may void coverage.
Expert Recommendation
The CX2200 is appropriate when:
- The cellar is fully insulated and sealed
- The cubic footage does not exceed 265 cu ft
- The exhaust room remains below 85°F
- Noise tolerance is acceptable
If you are uncertain about insulation levels, glass exposure, or exhaust conditions, verify sizing before ordering.
Selecting the correct cooling capacity is the most important factor in wine preservation performance.

📚 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
The unit may run continuously and struggle to reach 55°F. Oversizing slightly is preferable to undersizing. If your cellar exceeds 265 cu ft, consider a higher-capacity model.
No. It is designed to vent into an interior room with stable ambient temperature. Outdoor venting exposes the system to extreme temperature swings and is not recommended.
63 dBA is similar to a window AC or refrigerator hum. It is audible and not considered silent. For noise-sensitive areas, a split system is recommended.
It helps maintain appropriate humidity levels when the cellar is properly sealed, but it is not a dedicated humidification system.
A dedicated 20-amp 115V circuit is required. While the unit plugs in, proper electrical compliance is important for warranty protection.
Glass increases thermal load significantly. Large glass surfaces typically require a higher-capacity or split system. The CX2200 is best suited for insulated wall construction.
It is rated to maintain cellar temperature with up to 85°F condenser intake air. Performance declines if intake air regularly exceeds this temperature."]
