Insulation
CellarPro cooling units are designed to be installed inside wine cellars that have
proper insulation, moisture barriers and an airtight seal from the environment
outside the cellar. Interior walls and floor should have a minimum of R-11
insulation, and a vapor barrier
on the warm side of the
insulation. The ceiling should
have a minimum of R-19
insulation and a vapor barrier
on the warm side of the
insulation. Doors also should
be insulated and tightly
sealed with weather
s t r i p p i n g a r o u n d t h e
perim eter of the door.
Surface-mounted fixtures
are recommended over
recessed lighting, which can
allow air to leak into the
cellar.
It is important that all walls,
joints, doors and windows, electrical outlets and/or switches, pipes, vents and
light fixtures be sealed to prevent air and moisture from entering the cellar. If there is
a leak in the cellar, the cooling unit will build up excess condensation.
We strongly recommend that the overflow drain line (shipped loose with the cooling
unit) be connected to the overflow drain (as shown in the installation section). In
addition, we recommend turning on the electric heating element to burn off excess
condensate that accumulates in the stainless steel pan during the initial cooling of
the cellar and during high run-times, as well as in high-humidity environments.
Fan Speeds
Your fan speed setting will depend on the thermal load on the wine cellar, and
the resulting BTU that is required to cool and maintain your wine cellar at the
desired temperature.
Ventilation
Adequate ventilation is critically important for the proper operation of your
CellarPro cooling unit.
