Through-the-wall ductless installation
Quiet 47.9 dBA operation for residential wine spaces
Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and NFC smart controls
Humidity sensor, condensate evaporator, Ultra Quiet Package, and Exterior Wall Package included
Compact Through-the-Wall Cooling for Small Wine Cellars
Unlike standard air conditioning systems, the Wine Guardian Defender WGTTW01B is engineered specifically for wine preservation. It supports consistent cellar temperature control, humidity monitoring, quiet operation, and reliable performance to help protect cork integrity, wine quality, and long-term collection value.
This model is best suited for smaller wine cellar and wine display applications where split-system equipment is unnecessary or impractical.
Performance Note: Cooling capacity and performance may vary depending on condensing-side ambient conditions. Always review the manufacturer specification sheet and confirm proper cellar sizing before purchasing.

Always verify sizing before purchase
How to Determine if the WGTTW01B Is the Right Size
Proper wine cellar cooling system sizing depends on more than room dimensions. Cellar volume, insulation quality, vapor barrier construction, glass exposure, lighting, door type, ceiling height, and ambient conditions around the condenser side all affect cooling requirements.
The WGTTW01B is best suited for smaller wine cellar and display applications where the heat load is within the unit's rated capacity. If the cooling unit is undersized, it may run continuously, struggle to maintain proper cellar temperatures, and reduce long-term system efficiency.
Sizing Guidance: Before purchasing, confirm the unit is appropriate for your cellar construction, insulation, ambient conditions, and storage goals. When in doubt, request professional wine cellar design assistance before selecting a cooling system.
Installation Requirements Checklist
Properly insulated wine cellar walls and ceiling
Vapor barrier installed or planned
Correct wall opening for through-the-wall installation
Adequate condenser-side ventilation space
Dedicated 120V electrical connection
Proper clearance around the cooling unit
Cellar door sealed to reduce air leakage
Compliance with local building and electrical codes
Manufacturer installation manual reviewed before installation
