The CellarCool CX8800 is a high-output, through-the-wall wine cellar cooling system engineered for large residential and light commercial wine rooms.
It delivers 4,754 BTUh of cooling capacity and can maintain 55°F cellar temperature when condenser intake air does not exceed 85°F, provided the room is fully insulated and vapor sealed.
This unit is designed for sustained performance in large thermal-load environments — not small cabinets or decorative wine displays.
Reminder:The CellarCool CX Series Wine Cooling Unit CX8800 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
Quick Decision Guide
Choose the CX8800 if:
Your cellar is up to 2,000 cubic feet
The room is fully insulated and vapor sealed
You have proper rear ventilation space
You can provide a dedicated 20-amp 115V circuit
Noise levels around 68 dBA are acceptable
Do NOT choose the CX8800 if:
The cellar is smaller and risks oversizing
The unit must vent into a sealed closet
The space exceeds 85°F on the condenser side
Ultra-quiet operation is required (consider split system)
Correct sizing and installation determine performance.
Cooling Performance & Environmental Limits
Rated Cooling Capacity
BTUh: 4,754 (with 85°F condenser air entering coil)
Max Cellar Size: 2,000 cubic feet
Temperature Delta: Maintains 55°F cellar with up to 85°F condenser intake air
Critical Conditions
The 2,000 cu. ft. rating assumes:
R-19 wall insulation (minimum)
R-30 ceiling insulation
Proper vapor barrier installation
Minimal air leakage
Limited glass exposure
Adequate rear ventilation
If condenser intake air exceeds 85°F, cooling capacity decreases.
Improper room construction reduces system effectiveness.
Installation Requirements
Installation Type
Through-the-wall, partially ducted
Ventilation Requirements
Rear exhaust only
Must vent into well-ventilated area
Cannot vent into sealed mechanical closet
Heat must dissipate freely
Restricted ventilation will cause:
Reduced cooling performance
Compressor overheating
Possible warranty void

At first, we are having difficulty using the controls but gradually we are getting a hang of it. We've been using it for 2 weeks now. And it is still working.

This website was referred to me by my friend. He got his wine cooler here and he said they are very nice and helpful. He is right. I do not know that much about wine cooling units. I have a small wine cooler before and decided to upgrade into wine cellar. David was nice enough to assist me. Thanks man!
