Wine easily deteriorates if it is stored in a room with conditions that are not stable. If you have decided to collect wines and are planning to age them, it is vital that you invest in a climate-controlled wine cellar. In Texas, where the climate varies a lot in many areas, your chosen builder must install a reliable climate control system in your residential or commercial wine storage facility. Custom Wine Cellars San Antonio recommends wine cooling units manufactured by CellarPro.
An Expert Will Determine the Perfect Wine Cooling Solution for Your Needs
With many brands and models of wine cooling systems available in the market today, it is wise to consult with a wine cellar specialist. You cannot just use an air conditioning system designed specifically for homes because it will not be able to achieve the optimum storage conditions needed by wine to age properly.
At Custom Wine Cellars San Antonio, we make a careful assessment to help us determine the most suitable wine cooling unit for our client’s needs. To help us know the correct size of the refrigeration unit for your wine cellar, we perform a heat load assessment. One of the most trusted providers of wine cooling solutions is CellarPro.
Why Choose CellarPro?
CellarPro has been one of our partners in many of the wine cooling projects in San Antonio, Texas. All of their products are manufactured with many functional features, which allow the owners to enjoy wine collecting for many years to come.
The refrigeration units are available in different types and sizes to suit the unique requirements of each client. They are designed for use in wine cellars and wine cabinets.
Maximum Cooling Power and Quiet Operation
When you choose a climate-control system, it must be able to offer maximum cooling efficiency to ensure that your favorite vintages are safe before they are consumed.
Using a cooling unit that does not have the necessary features required to protect your wine collection will result in disappointments and significant expense in the future.
Wine needs to be stored in an area where there are stable conditions. The ideal temperature for the proper aging of wine is 55 to 65 degrees Fahrenheit. The humidity levels must range between 60 to 70 percent.
Our CellarPro wine refrigeration systems have variable-speed fans to achieve maximum cooling efficiency, especially when the temperature rises. The flexible fan cycles also help maintain the correct level of moisture inside your wine cellar.
CellarPro products also operate more quietly compared to other brands of climate-control systems.
Commercial Grade Components
All of the CellarPro cooling units are made in the USA. They consist of the highest quality components, which ensures that the units are of the highest-quality and will have a longer lifespan.
The refrigeration systems have large compressors for increased cooling capacity. You don’t want to purchase a unit that is not able to cool your wine cellar properly. Additionally, the Electrofin-coated coils are highly resistant to corrosion.
All CellarPro units are designed to simplify their maintenance and repair. The valves are easy to access, the air filters are reusable and replaceable, and the steel cases are removable.
Advanced Temperature and Humidity Controls and Programmable LED Display Panels
Another feature of the CellarPro wine cooling systems is the advanced temperature and humidity control. It provides convenience in monitoring the conditions in your wine cellar. You can easily check if the conditions are stable or not. This way, you can make sure that your wines are in good hands.
The digital display is a good feature to look for in a wine cooling unit. The CellarPro units have programmable LED display panels, which allow you to easily adjust the settings of your wine cellar environment.
Flexibility and Warranty
When it comes to installation, the CellarPro units are available in various configurations and adaptability. Some cooling systems are as small as 200 cubic feet and as large as 1500 cubic feet.
Some units are designed for through-the-wall installations using mounting brackets, which eliminates the use of support shelves. CellarPro also offers the most comprehensive warranty (5 years) for their units.

Types of CellarPro Wine Cooling Units
CellarPro products include self-contained and split refrigeration systems. You can choose from three models: 1800 Series, 3200 Series, and 4200 Series.
CellarPro 1800 Series Self-Contained Climate-Control Systems
The 1800 Series is designed for small wine rooms up to 400 cubic feet (e.g. under the stairs wine cellar), wine cabinets, and other challenging installations. The unit measures 18″ wide x 16.5″ deep x 10.5″ high.
The 1800 Series units vary in noise levels, cooling capacities, and ability to operate in different environments. They come with a 3-amp electric receptacle, which is provided to run a small lamp.
CellarPro VS Series Self-Contained Wine Cooling Units
The CellarPro VS Series is ideal for installations of wine cellars up to 2,500 cubic feet. The units have dual power sources and a 10-foot power cord, which allow them to be plugged into a receptacle from either the front or the rear of the refrigeration unit. This feature provides flexibility for most installations.
CellarPro 3200 Series Self-Contained Systems
For small to medium size wine cellars in San Antonio (400 to 800 cubic feet), we suggest the 3200 Series refrigeration units. With dimensions of 14.25” width, 25.1” depth, and 19.7 height, the unit is easy to install between wall studs.
A dedicated 20 amp 115V/60Hz circuit is needed. After the installation, simply plug the unit to start cooling your wine room.
CellarPro 4200 Series
A perfect option for wine cellars that are 500 to 1,500 cubic feet in size is a CellarPro 4200 Series cooling unit. It is easy to install and has a measurement of 14.25″ W x 25.1″ D x 19.7″ H. There is no need to set refrigerant lines, so an HVAC technician is not required for the installation. This will save you from the labor cost.
CellarPro Split Systems
For installation of wine rooms up to 2,000 cubic feet, Custom Wine Cellars San Antonio recommends the CellarPro split system.
The evaporator is installed separately from the condenser. The condensing unit is placed outdoors for proper noise and heat dissipation.
The units are designed for ceiling mount and wall mount installations. The water-cooled unit does not need ventilation like the other units. However, it requires a continuous flow of water to cool itself.
