Product Overview
The Wine Guardian D050WC Ducted Water-Cooled Wine Cooling Unit provides reliable wine cellar climate control for medium-sized home wine cellars, restaurant wine rooms, commercial wine storage spaces, and luxury glass wine cellars.
Its water-cooled design makes it especially useful when condenser heat cannot be easily exhausted through a traditional air-cooled setup.
This self-contained ducted system houses the evaporator, fans, compressor, condenser, and controls in one unit. Conditioned air is delivered into the wine cellar through insulated ductwork, allowing the equipment to be installed outside the wine room for a quieter, cleaner, and more discreet cellar design.
If your wine cellar has glass wine walls, added internal heat sources, or limited ventilation options, and you have access to a year-round water source, the Wine Guardian D050WC is a strong choice.
What Are Water-Cooled Wine Cooling Systems?
Water-cooled wine cellar cooling systems are designed for projects where removing condenser heat through air exhaust is not practical. Instead of rejecting heat into the surrounding air, the D050WC uses a water-cooled condensing coil and water-regulating valve.
These systems are well suited for geothermal sources, cooling towers, lake water applications, and other year-round water sources. Water-cooled configurations are available for Wine Guardian self-contained ducted systems and can be factory-configured for specific project requirements.
Advantages of Wine Guardian Ducted Cooling Systems
Wine Guardian ducted wine cellar cooling systems are designed for flexible installation and strong cellar design compatibility. They can create stable wine storage conditions in residential wine cellars, restaurant wine rooms, hospitality spaces, and commercial wine storage environments.
Because the unit can be installed outside the cellar and connected with insulated ductwork, only the supply and return grilles need to be visible in the wine room. This helps preserve the appearance of the cellar while reducing operating noise inside the conditioned space.
The D050WC eliminates the need for traditional heat exhaust, making it ideal for wine cellar projects with geothermal sources, cooling towers, lake water, or other year-round water sources.
Made for Fully Ducted Systems
Water-cooled functionality is available for Wine Guardian self-contained ducted systems. The ducted design allows the cooling equipment to stay outside the cellar while conditioned air is distributed through ductwork.
Contractor-Friendly Installation
Wine Guardian ducted units are designed for efficient contractor installation. The installer connects the ductwork, makes the drain connection, and completes the required water and electrical connections.
Simple and Efficient Design
The D050WC includes an integral water-regulating valve for efficient operation. Water connection points are located on the side of the unit for easier installation and service access.
Compatible Option Bundles
The D050WC can be paired with compatible Wine Guardian options, including humidification and heating accessories, to better match the cellar’s storage requirements.
Remote Interface Control
The remote interface controller allows temperature adjustment and humidity monitoring. Wine Guardian Wireless2Base™ Technology allows flexible controller placement in the cellar, kitchen, living room, or another convenient location.
Serviceability Simplified
Wine Guardian self-contained wine room cooling units are designed for field service. Quarter-turn fasteners allow access for maintenance and repairs without sending the unit back to the factory.
Sentinel Series Construction
Wine Guardian ducted systems are part of the Sentinel Series, featuring an updated design and composite material construction for improved strength, appearance, and efficiency.
Advantages
Reduces the need for traditional condenser heat exhaust
Works with geothermal, cooling tower, lake water, or year-round water sources
Fully ducted design keeps visible equipment out of the cellar
Supports quiet and discreet wine room conditioning
Compatible with humidification and All Wine Temperatures options
Designed for field service and easier maintenance access

Humidity Support
Proper wine storage requires more than temperature control. Maintaining appropriate wine cellar humidity helps protect cork integrity and supports long-term storage conditions.
The D050WC can be paired with a Wine Guardian Integrated Humidifier or Wine Guardian Freestanding Humidifier, depending on the cellar layout and project requirements.
Available Options
All Wine Temperatures (AWT)
The All Wine Temperatures bundle expands temperature control from 45°F to 64°F / 7°C to 18°C. It includes an electric heater coil and controls that help protect the cellar in locations where temperatures may drop below 50°F / 10°C.
Integrated Humidifier
The Wine Guardian Integrated Humidifier attaches directly to the Wine Guardian cooling system, using the same power source and remote controller to help maintain proper cellar humidity.
Freestanding Humidifier
The Wine Guardian Freestanding Humidifier is installed inside the wine cellar and can be operated using the existing Wine Guardian controller.
Wine Guardian warrants, to the original buyer, its goods and all parts thereof to be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of two years from the date of invoicing assuming normal use and service.
The Wine Guardian D050WC is best suited for medium-sized wine cellars where traditional heat exhaust is difficult and water-cooled operation is practical.
We recommend this model for residential and commercial wine cellar projects that have a reliable year-round water source, especially glass wine rooms, luxury residential cellars, restaurant wine storage areas, and hidden mechanical layouts.
Before ordering, confirm cellar volume, insulation quality, glass exposure, water-source availability, duct layout, heat load, and installation conditions. Correct sizing is essential for stable wine storage performance.

📚 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
The D050WC is designed to cool wine cellars up to 1,500–2,000 cubic feet, depending on the room’s insulation, construction, and heat load factors.
A water-cooled unit uses a water source to remove heat from the system instead of venting hot air into the surrounding space. It’s ideal for environments where ventilation is limited or not possible, such as enclosed utility rooms or buildings without access to exterior air.
Yes. It is a fully ducted, self-contained system. Conditioned air is supplied and returned through ductwork, allowing the unit to be installed out of sight and nearly silent inside the wine cellar.
The D050WC maintains precise temperature control and is compatible with Wine Guardian’s integrated humidifier, which can be added to manage relative humidity levels for optimal wine preservation.
Yes. It requires access to a closed-loop water system, chilled water source, or cooling tower capable of handling the heat rejection load. Your HVAC technician can determine the best configuration based on your installation.
Yes. The D050WC must be installed by a licensed HVAC professional to ensure proper water and ductwork connections, electrical setup, and system calibration. This is also required to activate the warranty.
