To age optimally, wine requires a balance of temperature and humidity.
The temperature affects the rate of maturation while the right humidity
keeps corks in good shape during the aging process. Dry corks crack and
allow wine to oxidize. Excessively wet corks rot, causing the wine to
become "corked".
Wine collectors agree that the
ideal temperature for maturing fine wines is 55F-57F and that the
humidity should be carefully balanced between 50%-70%.
WhisperKOOL achieves these
optimum conditions by cooling the cellar slowly. As the temperature in
the cellar begins to drop, the relative humidity will rise, creating
the ideal environment for aging wine. WhisperKOOL incorporates an
efficient environmental stabilization system in a compact,
easy-to-install, self-contained unit. It is built in a variety of sizes
for wine cellars, ranging from 300 to 2,000 cubic feet.
The unique difference between
the WhisperKOOL system and traditional air-conditioning units is the
maintenance of well-conditioned humidity. Traditional air-conditioning
units are designed to cool air quickly; as a result, humidity is
removed, leaving air dehydrated.
WhisperKOOL XLT Series

The WhisperKOOL XLT Series cooling units are
specifically designed to maintain temperature
and humidity within a properly designed wine
cellar. The series consists of five dedicated
cooling units for wine cellars ranging from
300 to 2,000 cubic feet.
These cooling units have been designed to fit
between standard wall studs and are equipped
with a rear flange which allows the units to
be mounted through a wall without requiring
a support shelf.
WhisperKOOL XLT Series
Our new generation cooling units... Engineered
for superior performance, utilizing:
- NEW! State-of-the-art compressors
- Re-designed high-efficiency tubing
- Superior condensate evaporator system
- New optional PDT (Precision Digital Technology)
Thermostat.
WhisperKool is a cooling unit designed specifically
to maintain temperature and humidity within a
properly designed wine cellar.
Ease of Installation
WhisperKOOL has been specifically designed to
fit between standard wall studs. This requires
a minimum of modification to existing wall structures.
The unit is equipped with a rear flange for mounting
through a wall. The flange allows the unit to
be mounted directly to the wall and eliminates
the need to build a support shelf.
Condensate Evaporator System
The unit is designed to collect and dissipate
excessive moisture, which accumulates during normal
operations. A sophisticated heating element dissipates
the collected moisture and evaporates it through
the exhaust port located on the rear of the unit.
Vibration Free Operations
Vibration can disturb the natural aging process
of wine and compromise its quality. WhisperKOOL
is designed with state-of-the-art compressors
and components. This combination is engineered
to provide vibration free operation.
Solid and Durable Housing Design
The polymer coating on the galvanized steel housing
gives the WhisperKOOL systems a beautiful, textured
finish which resists fingerprints, rust, nicks
and scratches.
Liquid-Measuring Thermostat
This system incorporates a probe designed to measure
the liquid temperature in a wine bottle rather
than the air temperature of the cellar. This results
in several distinct advantages:
- Wine is maintained at a precise, measured
temperature.
- The unit will switch on/off less often,
extending cooling unit life.
- The unit will run longer during cycles effectively
maintaining humidity.
Optional PDT Series Thermostat
With microprocessor controlled digital technology
and pinpoint accuracy, this unit offers some distinct
features and benefits:
- Self-calibrating probe - contains
a microchip, which communicates back and forth
to the thermostat, resulting in accuracy.
- Built-in defrost cycle - designed
to shut off for five minutes every fifty minutes
in order to prevent frost buildup.
- Heavy duty circuitry - designed
to resist power surges, which play havoc on
sensitive electrical components.
- Fahrenheit and Celsius readout
- for use in the United States as well as
around the world.

WhisperKOOL
Extreme Series

The WhisperKOOL Extreme Series is WhisperKOOL's highest end,
professional series of self-contained wine storage refrigerators.
Designed and engineered utilizing state-of-the-art, high quality
components, the Extreme Series is made for longevity, high reliability
and excellent performance in a wide range of working conditions.
The Extreme Series' ventilation
system includes a quiet, professional grade, high performance fan
system that optimizes airflow throughout the cellar. The powerful fan
system ensures consistent wine cellar temperatures with minimal noise
generation.
Engineered with oversized
condenser and evaporator coils, a powerful ventilation system and a
protective exterior housing, the Extreme Series is designed to vent to
the outside in hot and freezing climates. The unit is designed to vent
to the outside in climates where temperatures reach over 100 degrees.
These units can also readily be vented into an adjacent indoor room
when applicable.
The WhisperKOOL®Extreme
Cooling System requires professional installation by a licensed
refrigeration technician.
Liquid Measuring Probe
The unit accurately measures the temperature of wine in the cellar
using a liquid temperature measuring probe. Measuring the temperature
of a liquid is a more direct and accurate reflection of the temperature
of the wines stored in the cellar than measuring the ambient cellar air.
Filter Change Lights for both
Evaporator and Condenser
There are filters for both the evaporator and condenser. Individual
indicator lights representing each filter will glow yellow when it is
time to replace either one of them. The filters keep dirt particles
from entering the units and accumulating on the evaporator and
condenser coils.
High Heat Alarm
If the temperature on the back of the unit reaches 130°F, a red
indicator light will turn on. The light shuts off once the temperature
lowers to 100°F.
Temperature Control
This control enables the target wine temperature in the wine cellar to
be set via the temperature of the liquid measured by the Liquid
Measuring Probe. It is preset from the factory to 55°F, but can
be adjusted to any temperature between 50°F and 76°F. A
digital read-out displays the temperature in either Celsius or
Fahrenheit.
Frost Prevention Setting to
Prevent Coil Freezing
The unit contains a preset, automatic defrost feature that prevents any
ice from building up on the coils. This allows the WhisperKool Extreme
to operate effectively in demanding environments.
Refrigerant High Pressure
Shut-Off
Automatic high pressure shut-off feature designed to protect the
compressor from excessive head pressures. This protects the system in
case there are any obstructions restricting air flow through the
filters, duct or grille.
Low Ambient Control System
The system allows the condenser section (back of the unit) to be
exposed to air temperatures as low as 0°F. It enables operation
of the compressor and refrigerant systems when exposed to cold
temperatures.
Remote Control Panel (optional)
The system's control panel can be mounted remotely; i.e. the control
panel can be located separately from the cooling unit itself. This
option provides unique flexibility for installing the Extreme Series
cooling unit in your wine cellar.
Ducting and Ventilation Options
The ventilation system is ideal for ducting. The optional collars fit
standard ventilation ducting allowing the installer to vent air to and
from the unit for optimum performance (please see specifications for
details).
Superior Operating Flexibility
The Extreme Series wine cellar cooling units are designed to work in
conditions that cause traditional cooling units to fail. Engineered to
solve the most difficult installation dilemmas, the Extreme Series has
the performance capability to provide superior wine cellar temperature
control:
- In hotter environments where
cooling is difficult, up to 120°F;
- In cold areas where many
units fail to operate
