Features and Specifications
• Wine-Mate split cooling systems VINO2500-8500SSH are designed and used
to provide a cold temperature between 50~65
room at a normal environment.
• The wine room will maintain humidity of 50~70% RH even when the
environment becomes dry and humid. These temperatures and humilities are
optimized for long term storage of wine.
• SSH units consist of a condensing unit and an evaporator unit, and they are
connected by a liquid line and an insulated suction line.
• SSH condensing units can be located away from the evaporator units and
wine cellars as far as 50 ft, which will bring you quiet operation.
• The SSH evaporator units are designed to provide chilled air to wine rooms
through ducts and can be located up to 25 ft away to reduce noise.
The dimensions and capacities are specified as follows:

Cellar Construction
This is only a guide and shall be considered as minimum requirements.
All interior walls and floors shall have a vapor barrier and a minimum of R11
insulation. All exterior walls and ceiling shall have a vapor barrier and a minimum
of R19 insulation. The vapor barrier shall be installed on the warm side of the
insulation. All joints, door frames, electrical outlets or switches and any pipes or
vents that go through the enclosure shall be sealed to prevent air and moisture
leakage into the room. Concrete, rock, and brick are not insulation or vapor
barriers.
Doors shall be of a minimum size, insulated to at least R11 and tightly sealed
with high quality weather stripping. Be sure to seal the bottom of the door and fill
gap between the door’s frame and wall before installing the cap molding.
In order to maintain 55 °F in the wine cellar, the ambient temperature
surrounding the enclosure shall not exceed the temperature of the enclosure by
more than 25 °F. No enclosure wall shall receive direct sun or strong wind.
Lighting shall be of low wattage, with a timer to insure lights are not left on when
the enclosure is not occupied.
The cooling system will not be able to maintain the proper temperature if fresh
moisture-laden air is constantly being introduced to the enclosure. Symptoms of
this condition are; unit runs all the time with only a slight reduction in temperature
and/or water overflows from the unit. Because of the temperature difference
between the inside and outside, very small cracks can allow large amounts of
outside air to enter into the enclosure. Please be aware that moisture can pass
through solid concrete, paint and wood. Often a newly constructed room contains
fresh wood, paint, concrete and other building materials. These materials contain
large amounts of moisture. When placed into operation in this type of
environment, the system will work harder to remove this extra moisture resulting
in increased “run” time.

Installer’s Instruction
Federal law requires that WINE-MATE split cooling systems be
installed by an EPA certified refrigeration technician.
WINE-MATE split system is shipped as components and is ready for use only
after a certified refrigeration technician has properly installed, evacuated,
charged and tested the system. Proper installation is critical. Vinotemp can only
warrant the quality of the components. The installation and proper operation of
the system must be warranted by the installer. Installation of the system must be
done in accordance with all state and local building and electrical codes.
The condensing unit and evaporator unit are connected by a liquid line and an
insulated suction line that are supplied by the installer. These lines must be
properly sized for the distance between the two units. After the units and the lines
are installed, the system must be pressure tested. If no leaks are found,
evacuate and charge system. Refrigerant amount will vary depending on the
length of line set.

1. Condensing Unit
• Place the condensing units WM250-850SCU in a
properly ventilated location. If it is not, heat exhausted
by the condensing unit will build up and the cooling
system will not operate properly.
• Condensing unit shall be elevated to avoid possible
flooding and shaded from direct sun. It shall not be
exposed to temperatures higher than 110 °F or lower
than 50 °F (optional low ambient kit available).
• Leave minimum 5 ft clearance for the exhaust side and leave minimum 1
foot clearance for the fresh air intake side.
CAUTION:
IF THE CONDENSING UNIT IS EQUIPPED WITH A LOW AMBIENT
CONDITION KIT, DO NOT TURN ON THE COMPRESSOR UNTIL THE
CONDENSING UNIT HAS BEEN POWERD FOR 24 HOURS.
