WhisperKOOL Platinum Mini Ductless (110V or 220V Condenser) Split System

WhisperKOOL Platinum Mini Ductless (110V or 220V Condenser) Split System
WhisperKOOL solves the most stubborn of small cellar cooling roadblocks. This compact system cools up to 500 cubic feet with the compressor in a remote location and the evaporator (cold side) mounted in the cellar. Since space in a small cellar is vital, the Platinum Mini-Split offers a compact size paired with powerful efficiency. The unit is equipped with our Platinum Series controller, which utilizes Advanced System Protection Technology. This features a series of strategically placed monitoring probes, which ensure efficient performance and long cooling unit life. The controller is easy to operate and has features such as adjustable humidity control, energy-saving modes, quick chill mode, and an anti-frost function. The Platinum Mini-Split allows anyone to have a top-quality wine cellar.
Improved Design
Our Platinum Mini Split system has been redesigned for easier care and maintenance. We've moved the evaporator coil to a new location and created a unit that can be maintained without removing it from the wall. This improved design will make servicing the system easier and maintain peak operating conditions.

**PLEASE NOTE** WhisperKOOL does not provide a smart thermostat. 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.

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, simply 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 levels drop.
- Intermittent Mist Injection Technology - No pads or filters that can mold over time.
- Included humidistat displays and monitors humidity levels.
Exterior Housing
Condensor with Exterior Housing - Protects the condenser portion of the split system from the elements when installed outdoors.
Condensor without Exterior Housing
Active Humidity option:
Now you can select optional Built-In Humidity. Built-In Humidity introduces more moisture to the cellar environment, ideal for areas where relative humidity levels drop below 50%.
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 customer's 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
The Split System is often the most efficient way to cool a cellar. Cooling unit condensers are typically noisy and require significant space for ventilation, in most cases the cellar location does not include an area for these functions. By splitting the cooling system, the condenser can be placed in a space better suited for heat and noise dissipation while the quiet evaporator is inside or near the cellar. A licensed HVAC/R technician is required for the installation.
