WINE CELLAR / SPACE PREPARATION
Preparing the Wine Cellar
The proper design and preparation of the wine cellar is essential in order to maintain the ideal temperature and humidity levels. We have created a typical presentation on “How to Build a Wine Cellar” which is available for viewing on our web site at www.whisperkool.com. Failure to prepare the cellar accordingly will result in the cellar not maintaining proper temperature and humidity.

Refrigerant Lines and Wiring
•1/4” OD copper liquid line
•1/2” OD copper suction line. If longer than 75’, use 5/8” OD pipe. If there is a vertical rise of more than 10’, reduce to 3/8” OD pipe for the rise.
•1/2” wall thickness Armaflex (brand name) or equal insulation for suction line
•For suction lines where elbows are required, use “long radius” 90° elbows to reduce friction loss. Each 90° elbow equals 1ft. equivalent feet of tubing length. Add the equivalent footage for the total number of 90° elbows to the length of straight tubing with the total not to exceed 100’.
