Free Wine Cellar Design Assistance
Every wine cellar has different cooling requirements. Proper sizing depends on cellar dimensions, insulation quality, glass exposure, vapor barrier construction, ambient conditions, and ventilation.
Wine Coolers Empire provides complimentary wine cellar design assistance to help determine the correct cooling system before purchase.

Reliable Temperature Protection
Engineered to help maintain wine cellar temperatures near the ideal 55°F range when installed in a properly constructed cellar.
Self-Contained Installation
The evaporator and condenser are housed in one unit, making it practical for through-the-wall installations where a split system is not required.
Directed Airflow
The upgraded centrifugal blower provides strong, direct airflow to help distribute conditioned air throughout the wine room.
Bottle Probe Accuracy
The included bottle probe measures the temperature of liquid inside a bottle instead of only measuring ambient air.
Condensate Management
The built-in condensate evaporator can process up to 3 ounces of condensate per hour, making the drain line a secondary precaution in many installations.
Flexible Power Access
The unit can be powered from either the front or rear, giving installers more flexibility based on cellar layout and access requirements.
Advantages and Limitations
| Advantages | Limitations |
|---|---|
| Self-contained design simplifies installation | Not suitable for wine cellars larger than 650 cu. ft. |
| No external condenser required | Not intended for remote condenser installations |
| Includes bottle probe for accurate wine temperature monitoring | Performance depends on proper insulation and vapor barrier construction |
| Advanced digital controller with system protection alerts | Not ideal for poorly sealed or glass-heavy rooms without heat load review |
| Optional condenser ducting kit available | Through-the-wall installation is required |
| Practical for residential remodel and retrofit projects | Not intended for fully ducted cooling requirements |
Installation Requirements
Proper cellar construction is essential for cooling performance. The WhisperKOOL SC PRO 3000 is designed for wine cellars with:
- Proper wall insulation
- Proper ceiling insulation
- Continuous vapor barrier
- Sealed door assembly
- Adequate exhaust ventilation
- Controlled ambient conditions around the condenser side
Cooling systems cannot overcome poor room construction. A room without proper insulation, sealing, or vapor barrier protection may experience temperature instability, excess runtime, moisture problems, and reduced system performance.

The WhisperKOOL SC PRO 3000 is a strong choice for homeowners who need a reliable self-contained cooling unit for a medium-sized wine cellar.
It is best suited for properly built wine rooms around 500 to 650 cubic feet where a through-the-wall system is appropriate.
If your cellar has significant glass exposure, unusual ceiling height, poor insulation, high ambient temperatures, or an irregular layout, complete a heat load calculation before purchase to confirm that this model is correctly sized.

WhisperKOOL SC PRO 3000 Wine Cellar Cooling Unit Reviews
This unit replaced the previous WhisperKool model that I had owned for ten years or more. It is significantly quieter than the previous one which is a major benefit. It has only been installed for about a week but appears to be operating well. It fit in the same cutout the previous cooler had occupied. I hired a handyman to hook it up and the entire job was done in 2 hours
The unit is much quieter than my old unit (Vintage Keeper Tuscany 900). The bottle temperature probe allows the cooling unit to run longer but not as often. The unit also uses about 20% less energy than my last unit.
Wine Coolers Empire were easy to work with and the communication during the purchasing and shipping was flawless.
Had to replace an ancient discontinued Whisperkool unit. Sent pictures to Mary and she was able to identify it and offer a replacement suggestion. Got a bit of a discount, unit arrived within the week. When I went to install the unit the old ducting kit no longer works with the newer, more efficient model (of course), so now I need to pick up the ducting kit... I've reached out to them and they responded that they'll be getting back to me today.
I've had this wine cooler for a month now and I'm very satisfied with it. The temperature is just right. It's cold enough to keep my wine fresh but not too cold that it freezes the wine.
My wine cellar is perfect for the summer. The SC PRO 3000 keeps it at a great temperature. I was able to order directly from the Wine Coolers Empire with Free Shipping and No Sales Tax. I'm very happy with how fast and easy the entire process was.
I'm so glad I chose this one. It's been more than a month now and the cellar is always at the right temperature. It is quiet and very efficient in cooling our wine cellar. I am so happy with the purchase, thanks for accommodating, Wine Coolers Empire!
Happy customer. I am very satisfied with this cooling unit
After 12 years of using my previous unit, it finally died. This is the one I got to replace my previous unit. Hopefully it will last as long or better yet, longer.
Easy to install. Compact size. Very quiet
Very easy to install and operate. Very user friendly. Works great in my small cellar and doesn't produce too much noise.
