Cooling System Components

The WhisperKOOL XLT 4200 cooling system consists of several key components that work together to provide efficient and effective cooling. These include:

• High-Performance Compressor: Drives the cooling process, ensuring that the system operates efficiently and effectively. The cooling unit’s compressor works seamlessly to provide the necessary cooling capacity.

• Fan: Circulates the cooled air throughout the cellar, ensuring even distribution and consistent cooling. Proper air distribution helps maintain the ideal temperature across the entire wine cellar.

• Thermostat: Regulates the temperature and humidity levels, allowing for precise control and maintenance of the ideal storage conditions. The thermostat is essential for regulating both temperature and humidity, ensuring wine cellar cooling systems work effectively.

Thermostat and Controls

The WhisperKOOL XLT 4200 features an advanced thermostat and control system that allows for precise temperature and humidity adjustments.

Installation Options

The WhisperKOOL XLT 4200 wine cellar cooling system offers flexible installation options to suit various wine cellar designs. Whether you have a compact space or a larger cellar, this system can be seamlessly integrated into your setup. One of the standout features is its ability to be installed through an existing wall, making it an ideal choice for wine cellars with limited space. The system is designed to mount between the studs of an existing wall, providing a seamless integration with the surrounding environment. This through-the-wall installation ensures that the cooling unit is both unobtrusive and efficient.

Additionally, the XLT 4200 can be fitted with ducting, allowing for the warm exhaust air to be routed to another area. This feature is particularly beneficial for wine cellars adjacent to rooms that are not suitable for exhausting warm air. By directing the exhaust air away from the cellar, the system ensures a more efficient cooling process and maintains the ideal temperature and humidity levels for your wine collection.

Protective Exterior Housing

The Protective Exterior Housing is a recommended accessory for the WhisperKOOL XLT 4200 wine cellar cooling system. Designed to protect the exterior of the unit when mounted on an exterior wall, this housing ensures that your cooling system remains in top condition regardless of the weather. The exterior housing allows for proper airflow while shielding the fan and components from rain, summer heat, and other environmental factors.

Crafted in primer grey, the housing is ready for painting, allowing you to customize it to blend seamlessly with the surrounding environment. Installation is straightforward, using the same mounting screws as the WhisperKOOL installation, making it a hassle-free addition to your wine cellar setup. This protective measure not only extends the lifespan of your cooling unit but also ensures consistent performance, keeping your wine at the ideal temperature.

Heat Ducting Kit

The Heat Ducting Kit is an optional accessory for the WhisperKOOL XLT 4200 wine cellar cooling system, designed to enhance the efficiency of your cooling setup. This kit allows warm exhaust air to be ducted to another area, making it ideal for wine cellars with specific ventilation requirements or limited space. If the adjacent room to your cellar is not suitable for exhausting warm air, the duct kit provides a practical solution.

The kit includes a Thermostat Controller, which activates to push warm exhaust air away from the ducting (not included), ensuring that the exhaust air is managed effectively. This feature is particularly useful for maintaining optimal cellar conditions, as it prevents the buildup of warm air in areas where it could affect the overall temperature and humidity control. By using the Heat Ducting Kit, you can ensure that your wine cellar remains at the perfect conditions for aging your wine collection.
