WhisperKOOL Platinum 8000 Fully Ducted (110V or 220V Condenser) Split System
WhisperKOOL Platinum 8000 Fully Ducted (110V or 220V Condenser) Split System
A Ducted Split wine cellar cooling system has more installation options than a self-contained system. The unit may be installed up to 25 ducted feet from the wine cellar, with the cool air flowing to the cellar and the heat exhaust ducted to the outside of the home. Ducting is also a more aesthetic choice for wine collectors who do not want to see a cooling unit in the cellar. Noise from the unit will be reduced or eliminated, depending on the installation.
Described in the simplest terms, a split system is a cooling unit wherein the evaporator and condensing units have been “split” into two separate units instead of being contained within the same housing. The evaporator unit is located in or near your cellar, and the condensing unit is generally located outside or in an attic or utility room.
The Ducted Platinum Split 8000 allows you to decide where the evaporator and condensing units will be located. The condensing unit can be located up to 100 ft. away from the evaporator unit. The evaporator unit will be mounted in the cellar, or it can also be located nearby with ducting.
"Virtual Silence"
The Fully Ducted Platinum Split is WhisperKool's newest model to the split line-up. Ducting a Split creates a virtually silent cellar environment, allowing maximum installation options. The system uses our liquid bottle probe to monitor the actual temperature of the wine to ensure the wine is being kept at 55°F. The evaporator portion may be installed up to 25 duct feet from the cellar.
The WhisperKOOL Platinum series of split systems is the most efficient ever put out by WhisperKOOL. The WhisperKOOL Platinum 8000 Split System is a completely new design that improves airflow efficiency by 25% while being 10% quieter and 35% smaller than previous WhisperKOOL split systems. The WhisperKOOL Platinum 8000 Split System uses the superb WhisperKOOL liquid bottle probe to monitor the actual temperature of the wine for more accurate cooling. The WhisperKOOL Platinum 8000 Split System also features an advanced electronic control system, humidity control, an energy-saving mode, and alarm capabilities. For ease of installation, the WhisperKOOL Platinum 8000 Split System offers flexible installation options and the choice to put your condenser outside with the optional housing. Please note that these systems do not include a line set.
The WhisperKOOL Platinum Extreme 8000 Fully Ducted Split System will cool a wine cellar up to 1750 cubic feet. For cellars under 1000 cubic feet, there is a smaller WhisperKOOL Platinum 4000.

By selecting the 24V Thermostat Conversion Kit, you have acknowledged that the system will not be built with the standard WhisperKOOL control or liquid measuring bottle probe. You must source and purchase your own 24V smart thermostat to run the equipment. The WhisperKOOL Customer Satisfaction Team does not provide technical support for smart thermostats.

Features
The Fully Ducted Extreme Series units can be positioned up to 25 ducted feet from the cellar, creating a noise-free cellar environment. Fully ducted installation provides many installation options, allowing you to put the unit in more remote areas of the home and have full control of where the exhaust air vents to. This series features an advanced liquid temperature controller with a remote LED display (which can be placed up to 300 line feet from the unit) and an electronic thermostat. The systems are designed to maintain 55℉ and 50-70% relative humidity.

Upgrades
Active Humidity Option
Our new Active Humidity feature carefully measures the volume of moisture needed to raise the relative humidity within the cellar to the desired level. This design utilizes Intermittent Mist Injection Technology, which eliminates using pads or filters that can mold over time. Easy to install and effortless, connect a soft water source to the unit, install the humidistat, and you are ready to go. This optional integrated system must be specified when ordering the unit. For cellars with cooling units already installed, customers can select our stand-alone system, which offers the same technology in a small but effective package.
Active Humidity Features:
- Maintains optimal humidity levels when relative humidity level drops.
- Intermittent Mist Injection Technology - No pads or filters that can mold over time.
- Included humidistat displays and monitors humidity levels.
Exterior Housing
Condenser with Exterior Housing - Protects the condenser portion of the split system from the elements when installed outdoors.
Condenser without Exterior Housing
Thermostat
24V Thermostat Conversion Kit (Option)
The new 24-volt thermostat conversion kit for WhisperKOOL split systems** is the latest technology to manage and monitor your wine cellar environment with WhisperKOOL.
- Utilize the industry-leading technology from major manufacturers to monitor the environment of your cellar (see individual thermostat manufacturers' features and benefits for details).
- Connect your thermostat to Wi‑Fi to control the temperature from your phone, tablet, or laptop.
- Monitor temperature and humidity through smartphones.
- Monitor run time and energy usage.
- Set alarm notifications.
- View your cellar conditions from your cellular device.
The use of the 24-volt thermostat conversion kit eliminates the thermostat normally included with the system and allows your contractor to select, purchase, and install the thermostat technology of your choice, including but not limited to:
- Nest
- Ecobee
- Honeywell
* PLEASE NOTE: Not utilizing the thermostat from WhisperKOOL also eliminates the use of the bottle probe. WhisperKOOL does not provide SMART thermostats. Those must be purchased separately. WhisperKOOL customer service staff does not provide technical support for the customers' selected thermostat.
The 24-volt Thermostat conversion kit is currently available as an option for all Platinum and Ceiling Mount Split System models.
Digital Thermostat Temperature Differential
- The WhisperKOOL split system is designed with a 55-degree temperature differential. This means the unit can operate correctly even if the ambient temperature outside (or wherever the condenser unit is mounted) is 110 degrees. This is a significant improvement over most cooling units designed for wine storage.
- The system includes both the evaporator and condenser units.
- The WhisperKOOL split cooling system requires professional installation by a licensed refrigeration technician. The contents of this system do not include a line set.
Additional Info
A ducted system has more installation options than a self-contained system. The unit may be installed up to 25 ducted feet from the cellar, with the cool air flowing to the cellar and the heat exhaust ducted to the outside of the home. Ducting is also an aesthetic choice for wine collectors who do not want to see a cooling unit in the cellar. Noise from the unit will be reduced or eliminated, depending on the installation.
