WhisperKOOL Mini Ceiling Mount Ductless Split System with 220V High Efficiency

Wine Cellar Cooling for Rooms Up to 500 Cubic Feet

The WhisperKOOL Mini Ceiling Mount 220V High Efficiency is a ductless split wine cellar cooling system designed for fully insulated wine rooms up to 500 cubic feet.

This system is ideal when wall space must be preserved and a flush ceiling-mounted evaporator is preferred. The condenser installs remotely, reducing cellar noise and heat.

Professional HVAC-R installation is required to maintain warranty coverage.

Quick Decision Summary

Best For:

• Residential wine cellars up to 500 cu. ft.
• Fully insulated rooms (R-19 walls, R-30 ceiling minimum)
• Cellars with a sealed vapor barrier
• Projects requiring a ductless split system
• Installations where wall space must be preserved

Not Ideal For:

• Cellars larger than 500 cu. ft.
• Rooms with extensive glass
• Uninsulated or partially insulated spaces
• Installations without a vapor barrier
• Poorly ventilated condenser environments

Heat load calculations should always be performed prior to selecting a cooling system.

How the Mini Ceiling Mount System Works

This split system includes two primary components:

1. Evaporator (Inside the Cellar)

• Flush-mounted between ceiling joists
• Draws warm air that naturally rises
• Cools and redistributes air evenly
• Operates at 46–52 dBA depending on fan speed
• Weight: 35 lbs
• Dimensions: 25.05" L x 11.34" W x 11.17" H

2. Condenser (Installed Remotely)

• Can be installed up to 100 line feet from evaporator
• Must be installed in a ventilated area
• Operates at approximately 51 dBA
• Weight: 51 lbs
• Dimensions: 31.18" L x 10.75" W x 21.18" H

No ducting is required.

Cooling Performance

Cooling capacity depends on condenser air intake temperature.

The system can maintain a 55°F cellar temperature with condenser intake air temperatures up to 120°F, provided the cellar is properly constructed.

Performance declines if condenser ventilation is inadequate.

Electrical Specifications

• Voltage: 220V
• Dedicated 15 amp circuit required
• Running Amps: 1
• LRA: 5.3
• RLA: 1.55
• FLA: 17
• Refrigerant: R-134a

Installation by a licensed HVAC-R technician is required.

Controls & Monitoring

• Advanced digital display (50 ft cable included)
• Liquid-temperature measuring bottle probe (retractable cable)
• Optional 24V thermostat conversion kit
  • Customer must supply compatible 24V thermostat
  • Selecting this option removes the standard WhisperKOOL control and bottle probe

The bottle probe measures liquid temperature rather than ambient air, providing a more accurate reflection of wine storage conditions.

Drain Requirements

• 1/2" ID clear plastic tubing (not included)

Installation Requirements

For proper operation and longevity, the cellar must include:

• R-19 minimum wall insulation
• R-30 minimum ceiling insulation
• Continuous vapor barrier on warm side
• Sealed door and penetrations
• Proper condenser ventilation
• Minimal glass exposure unless compensated in heat load calculation

Improper construction may result in:

• Inability to maintain 55°F
• Excess compressor cycling
• Condensation issues
• Reduced system lifespan

Warranty

Two-Year Limited Warranty (Parts and Labor)
Professional installation required for warranty validity.

When to Choose This Model

Choose the Mini Ceiling Mount 220V if:

• Your cellar is 500 cu. ft. or smaller
• You want a clean ceiling-mounted design
• You prefer a ductless split system
• You need remote condenser placement
• Noise reduction inside the cellar is important

If your cellar exceeds 500 cubic feet or includes significant glass, a higher-capacity model should be evaluated.

Final Recommendation

The WhisperKOOL Mini Ceiling Mount 220V High Efficiency split system is a strong solution for small, properly constructed wine cellars where space efficiency and remote condenser placement are priorities.

It is not designed for oversized, glass-heavy, or poorly insulated rooms.

Proper cellar construction and professional installation are essential to achieve consistent 55°F storage conditions and long-term system performance.
