CellarPro 1/6 Ton Wine Cooling Unit (200 Cu.Ft. Capacity)

This CellarPro 1800QT-HE wine cooling unit delivers 1420 BTUH total / 1170 BTUH sensible capacity at 55F, making it one of the most efficient 1/6-ton cooling systems for small wine cellars and wine cabinets. Built with low-GWP R-290 refrigerant, high-efficiency EC fans and aluminum evaporator coils, this unit delivers quiet operation, strong airflow, and stable temperature and humidity control when installed in a properly constructed cellar.

Key Benefits:

• High-performance cooling: 1420 total / 1170 sensible BTUH @ 55F for optimal temperature and humidity management
• Low-GWP refrigerant: R-290 refrigerant with ultra-low GWP and zero ODP
• Quiet, efficient airflow: EC fan technology for reduced noise and improved airflow efficiency
• Longer coil life: Aluminum evaporator coils to help resist formicary corrosion and support longer service life
• Adjustable humidity control: Helps protect cork integrity and wine labels
• Compact design: Ideal for tight cabinet installs and small cellar environments

Performance Overview:

• Setpoint range: 51F-62F (cellar temperature)
• Designed to maintain ideal cellar conditions: Helps maintain humidity levels that support cork and label protection
• Best fit: Small residential wine cellars and wine cabinets requiring 1/6-ton cooling power

The 1800QT-HE cooling unit is an ideal upgrade path for customers searching for:

• A quieter wine cooling unit
• A more energy-efficient 1/6-ton wine cellar cooler
• A modern R-290 wine storage cooling solution

Installation Requirements:

For optimum performance and warranty coverage, the 1800QT-HE must be installed in a properly insulated, airtight wine cellar with a vapor barrier.

Recommended conditions and sizing assumptions:

• R-19 insulation or better
• No glass walls
• Vapor barrier installed on the warm side
• Ambient temperature up to 85F (sizing assumption)
• Access to fresh air from 40F to 95F (condenser air)

Ducting guidelines:

• Cold side cannot be ducted
• Hot side can be ducted only when using a CellarPro duct hood and auxiliary fan
• This model is engineered for indoor use only.

Technical Summary:

• Cooling capacity: 1420 total BTUH, 1170 sensible BTUH
• Nominal size: 1/6 ton wine cooling system
• Refrigerant: R-290 (ultra-low GWP)
• Fan type: EC (electronically commutated)
• Application: Wine cabinets, small wine cellars
• Certification: ETL-certified

Now with an R-290 compressor and coated aluminum evaporator coils, the 1800QT-HE delivers powerful cooling with quiet operation for wine cabinets located near living areas. Designed to replace 1800QTL and 1800QT cooling units.

All air-cooled refrigeration equipment requires fresh air intake to dissipate heat. The fresh air intake cannot come from the wine cellar space. It must draw from a space outside the cellar. Designed for indoor use only, the 1800QT-HE operates out of the box in ambient conditions from 40F to 95F.

• R-290 Compressor: delivers higher BTUH with lower energy use and environmentally friendly refrigerant.
• Coated aluminum evaporator coils resist formicary corrosion, the leading cause of cooling unit failure
• Energy-efficient components (compressor and EC Fans on both the cold and hot sides), save $41.69 in annual energy costs (assumes 75% runtime and $0.15/kWh)
• Configurable exhaust: top or rear hot-side exhaust. If clearance is tight, use our rear duct kit (sold separately) to ensure proper airflow.
• Adjustable humidity control uses high-output compressor and flexible fan cycles to help maintain recommended cellar moisture.
• Extra-large heat-exchange coils deliver powerful cooling capacity.
• Intuitive controls: LED display with a digital programmable thermostat. Remote display is available as an upgrade.
• Convenience modes: Energy Saver, Quick Chill and Auto-Defrost
• Set point range: 51F to 62F when properly sized.
• Low vibrations and quiet operation compared to typical units in this class.
• Audible and visual alarms to safeguard the unit and the cellar.
• Power: 8-foot cord exits from the rear and plugs into a standard 110V grounded receptacle.
• Circuit: requires a dedicated 15-amp circuit.
• Convenience Outlet: integrated 3-amp electric receptacle for a small lamp.
• Serviceability: removable steel case for easy access to internal components.
• Warranty: backed by CellarPro's 5-Year Standard Warranty.
• Safety: ETL listed to rigorous UL Standards.
