The Breezaire WKSL 2200 Wine Cooling System
The Breezaire WKSL 2200 is a split-system wine cooling unit for cellars up to 265 cubic feet. Unlike self-contained units, the WKSL 2200 separates the evaporator and condenser modules, allowing installation up to 50 feet apart. This design is practical when a through-the-wall unit is not feasible, when the condenser needs to be placed in a utility area or outdoors, or when venting through the wall is not possible. The WKSL 2200 uses Breezaire's Sentry III+ digital control platform for consistent operation across the product line.
48°F to 63°F Adjustable Set Point with Humidity Control
The WKSL 2200 maintains cellar temperatures from 48°F to 63°F, covering the requirements for red, white, or mixed wine storage. The Sentry III+ controller defaults to 55°F but can be adjusted as needed. The system manages humidity between 50% and 75%, which prevents corks from drying out and labels from peeling, while also reducing the risk of mold on racks and cases. Consistent humidity and temperature protect both wine quality and bottle appearance. The unit delivers a steady, gentle airflow to avoid sudden temperature swings. It is designed specifically for long-term wine storage, not for rapid chilling or frequent-access service cabinets.
Sentry III+ Electronic Control System
The fan/coil unit integrates the Breezaire Sentry III+ digital controller, which displays cellar temperature on a large green LED. Set points are adjusted directly on the unit using the SET, COOLER, and WARMER buttons, with no tools required. User settings are stored in permanent memory, so preferences remain after power loss. The automatic compressor restart delay prevents short-cycling after power interruptions or thermostat changes, extending compressor life. A high-temperature alarm alerts you if the cellar exceeds the set threshold, and automatic overheat protection will shut down the unit if temperatures approach 75°F, safeguarding your wine in case of compressor or condenser issues. The system uses an intake air sensor for temperature regulation but can also accept an optional bottle probe for monitoring actual liquid temperature. If a sensor fails, the display shows an error code, and manual operation is available to keep the unit running until service is performed.
Vibration Control and Quiet Cellar-Side Operation
The WKSL 2200 uses dampening mounts throughout the cooling system to minimize vibration, which helps prevent sediment disturbance and preserves wine clarity and aroma over time. With only the fan/coil unit inside the cellar, noise levels are significantly lower compared to self-contained systems. The metal cabinet is designed for straightforward wall mounting in the cellar.
About Breezaire
Breezaire is known for practical, well-engineered cooling systems built to keep wine rooms and other sensitive storage spaces stable. Since 1985, the brand has focused on steady temperature and humidity control rather than the fast drying effect of standard refrigeration. Many restaurants, clubs, and collectors rely on Breezaire because the units protect cork integrity and maintain consistent conditions over long periods. The company also supports every system it has produced, and current models match earlier footprints for straightforward replacement. This steady approach to design and service has made Breezaire a dependable choice for facilities that need predictable, low-impact climate control.
