Wine Guardian CS050 Wine Wall Cooling System
The Wine Guardian CS050 Wine Wall Cooling System is a ductless ceiling-mount split cooling unit engineered specifically for glass wine walls and modern wine displays. It delivers up to 4,430 BTU of cooling capacity while remaining visually discreet through a flush-mount ceiling grille that blends seamlessly into architectural wine displays.
The system separates the evaporator (installed above the wine wall) and the condensing unit (installed remotely), reducing noise inside the wine display while maintaining stable wine storage conditions.
The CS050 is designed for luxury residential wine rooms, restaurants, wine bars, and designer wine walls where both aesthetics and precise climate control are essential.
Under optimal conditions, the system can support wine enclosures up to approximately 2,200 cubic feet, though the actual capacity depends on insulation quality, glass exposure, and ambient temperature.

Key Features
Flush-Mount Ceiling Installation
The CS050 evaporator installs flush into the ceiling of a wine wall enclosure. Only a low-profile grille remains visible, allowing the cooling system to remain hidden while preserving the clean design of the display.
Designed for Glass Wine Walls
Wine walls often contain large amounts of glass, which can increase heat load. The CS050 provides the cooling capacity necessary to maintain stable wine storage conditions while keeping the display visually unobstructed.
Ductless Split System Design
The CS050 separates the cooling components into two sections:
• Evaporator: installed above the wine wall
• Condensing unit: installed remotely in a mechanical space or outdoors
This configuration reduces noise and keeps mechanical equipment away from the wine display.
Even Air Circulation
A dual airflow grille integrates both supply and return air paths to maintain consistent air circulation and prevent temperature stratification within the wine enclosure.
Easy Maintenance
The hinged grille design allows quick access to the evaporator components for inspection and service, allowing maintenance without removing the entire unit.
Wireless Monitoring and Control
The CS050 includes Wine Guardian’s Wireless2Base™ controller, allowing temperature and humidity monitoring from a remote thermostat location. Additional sensors can be installed for larger wine enclosures.
Ideal Applications
The Wine Guardian CS050 is designed for installations such as:
- Glass wine walls
- Architectural wine displays
- Restaurant wine displays
- Wine bars and tasting rooms
- Luxury residential wine rooms
- Retail wine displays
This system is especially useful when aesthetic design requires a hidden cooling system.
Cooling Performance
Cooling performance varies depending on the temperature of the condenser inlet air.
| Condenser Air Temperature | Total Cooling Capacity | Sensible Cooling |
|---|---|---|
| 30°F (-1°C) | 4430 BTU | 3500 BTU |
| 40°F (4°C) | 4420 BTU | 3500 BTU |
| 60°F (15°C) | 4400 BTU | 3500 BTU |
| 70°F (21°C) | 4300 BTU | 3400 BTU |
| 80°F (27°C) | 4050 BTU | 3280 BTU |
| 100°F (32°C) | 3500 BTU | 2930 BTU |
| 115°F (46°C) | 3080 BTU | 2850 BTU |
Cooling capacities are based on entering air conditions of 57°F and 55% relative humidity at rated airflow.
Actual cooling performance will vary depending on:
- cellar insulation
- vapor barrier installation
- glass surface area
- ambient room temperature

📚 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Under ideal insulation and environmental conditions, the CS050 can support wine enclosures up to approximately 2,200 cubic feet. Actual capacity depends on insulation quality, glass exposure, and ambient room temperature.
Yes. The CS050 was engineered specifically for glass wine walls and display cellars where the cooling system must remain discreet while maintaining stable temperature and humidity.
No. The system is a ductless split cooling system, meaning the evaporator installs directly in the wine wall ceiling and the condenser is installed remotely.
Yes. The condensing unit can be installed outdoors provided it is protected from weather and installed according to manufacturer guidelines.
Because the compressor and condenser are located remotely, the evaporator inside the wine enclosure operates quietly with minimal noise.
Yes. Proper insulation and a vapor barrier are essential for any wine cellar cooling system. Without them, cooling performance and humidity control may be reduced."]
