Breezaire WKSL Wine Cellar Cooling Units

The best wine cellar cooling unit is one that maintains a consistent temperature, balances humidity, and operates quietly. Breezaire’s WKSL Series split systems are especially popular because they allow flexible installation, produce minimal noise inside the cellar, and deliver the stable environment wine needs for long-term storage.

Most wine cellar cooling units, including Breezaire models, last 8 to 12 years with proper installation, ventilation, and maintenance. With consistent care, many continue performing well even longer.

Yes. Without climate control, temperature swings and humidity fluctuations can damage corks, labels, and the wine itself. A Breezaire cooling system ensures your collection ages in a stable, protective environment.

The ideal cellar temperature is around 55°F. Breezaire units are factory set to maintain a range of about 48°F to 63°F, covering both long-term storage and serving temperatures depending on wine style.

A standard refrigerator runs too cold and dry for wine, which can damage corks. Wine coolers are engineered to maintain proper temperature and humidity. Breezaire units also reduce vibration, protecting wine during long-term aging.

No. While both appliances cool, a wine cooler is purpose-built for wine storage. Breezaire systems hold cellar-appropriate temperatures, balance humidity, and minimize vibration—features refrigerators lack.

Cellar cooling should hold steady around 55°F. Breezaire systems are engineered to achieve this balance while supporting the humidity level that keeps corks from drying out.

Yes. Proper ventilation is essential for any cooling system. Breezaire units need placement where warm exhaust air can dissipate and where the condenser side stays below 85°F for efficient operation.

No. Breezaire wine cellar cooling systems do not require plumbing. They are self-contained or split designs that only need electrical connections and, for split systems, refrigerant lines between components.
