o European Country and Mission wine cabinets can use our front-vent hood
without the decorative grill (the grill will not fit with crown moldings.)
• Please note: minimum clearance of 7 ½ inches above the wine cabinet is
required in order to remove the hood and air filter (ie periodic maintenance) for
the cooling unit.
Credenza wine cabinets don’t require clearance above the wine cabinet; however,
credenzas require 3-4" of space behind the wine cabinet because the ventilation (intake
and exhaust) occurs behind the cabinet.
If you received an air diverter with your credenza, use the magnets to place the diverter on
the back of the cooling unit (at the back of the credenza) so that the hot air exhaust is
directed to the left (when facing the credenza).
THERMAL LOADS AND COOLING CAPACITIES
We offer a choice of several cooling units, which should be selected based on the size of
the cabinet, the temperature in the ambient environment and the desired temperature
inside the wine cabinet, as follows:
Cooling Unit Capacity @ 55°F (1)
1800QTL BTUH: 1065 Decibels: 42
1800QT BTUH: 1380 Decibels: 45
