WhisperKOOL Quantum Twin SS18000 Wine Cellar Cooling System

A dual-evaporator, high-capacity ducted split system for very large cellars — two Quantum evaporators paired with remotely mounted, high-efficiency condensers for balanced, redundant cooling.

Twin High-Capacity Evaporators
Two Quantum evaporators deliver balanced airflow across very large or multi-zone cellars
High-Efficiency 220V Condensers
Oversized coils deliver strong performance while drawing far less power than legacy compressors
Built-In Redundancy
A dual-system design keeps conditioning your cellar even during service on one unit
Flexible Placement
Each evaporator ducts up to 25 ft away; each condenser up to 100 line ft away

Quantum Twin SS18000 Key Features & Benefits

Dual-System Design for Very Large Cellars

The Quantum Twin SS18000 pairs two Quantum evaporators (18,000-class combined capacity) to condition very large cellars with even temperature distribution — ideal for expansive rooms, tall ceilings, or multi-zone layouts.

Advanced 220V High-Efficiency Condensers

The 220V high-efficiency condensers hold a 55°F cellar even in demanding mechanical rooms, with an engineered ambient operating range of -20°F to 120°F.

Fully Ducted, Concealed Design

Each evaporator installs up to 25 duct feet from the cellar and is ducted in through 14" supply and return ducts, so no equipment is visible in your wine room.

Built-In Redundancy

With two independent systems, your cellar keeps cooling even if one unit needs service — valuable protection for a large, valuable collection.

Precise Digital Control

Advanced digital displays (50-ft cables) work with liquid-temperature-measuring bottle probes, so the thermostats read the true temperature of your wine rather than the air.

Technical Specifications

Specification Details
Max Cellar Size Sized for very large or multi-zone cellars — WhisperKOOL rates this system by BTU rather than a fixed cu. ft. figure, so confirm sizing with a heat-load calculation before ordering

Where It Fits in the Range

The Quantum Twin SS18000 combines two Quantum evaporators for very large cellars. For the highest capacity, the Quantum Twin SS24000 pairs two 12000-class systems. Single-evaporator options include the Quantum SS9000 and SS12000. Because every large cellar is unique, always confirm sizing with a heat-load calculation before ordering.

A Note on Sizing

The cellar-size rating assumes a fully insulated room with a complete vapor barrier. Design factors such as glass walls, stone or concrete, high ambient temperatures, frequent door openings, or in-cellar lighting can increase the cooling load. When in doubt, choose the next capacity up — an undersized unit can run continuously, fail to reach temperature, and is not covered under warranty. We're happy to help you run the numbers.

Installation & Setup

Professional installation required: WhisperKOOL split systems must be installed by a qualified, licensed HVAC/R technician. Installation by anyone else will void the warranty.

Pre-Installation Requirements

  • Fully insulated cellar with a complete vapor barrier
  • Evaporators: dedicated 120V, 15-amp circuits
  • Condensers: dedicated 220V, 15-amp circuits
  • 14" supply / 14" return duct runs planned for each evaporator (up to 25 ft each)
  • Line sets sized per run length (not included)

Placement & Distances

  • Each evaporator ducted up to 25 duct ft from the cellar
  • Each condenser up to 100 line ft from its evaporator
  • Condensers can sit in a mechanical room, basement, garage, or rooftop
  • Provide clear airflow around each condenser
  • Route 3/4" drain lines from the evaporator bases

Cellar Design Best Practices

  • Maintain consistent insulation and seal all air leaks
  • Install a properly weatherstripped cellar door
  • Complete the vapor barrier on the warm side of the insulation
  • Plan duct routing for even coverage of a very large room

Maintenance

  • Keep condenser coils clean and clear of debris
  • Check the digital controllers and bottle probes periodically
  • Inspect the drain lines for free flow
  • Schedule an annual professional inspection

Warranty Coverage

WhisperKOOL Factory Warranty

Two-Year Limited Warranty

A limited 2-year parts & labor warranty covers manufacturing defects on all WhisperKOOL split systems. The warranty begins at the date of purchase but is not activated until a Product Warranty Checklist has been submitted to and approved by WhisperKOOL, so be sure to register your system after installation.

How Warranty Claims Work

All warranty claims are handled directly by WhisperKOOL, the manufacturer. Warranty repairs are performed at WhisperKOOL's facility in Stockton, CA, or — with WhisperKOOL's prior authorization — by a licensed HVAC/R technician. If a unit cannot be repaired in the field and is still under warranty, WhisperKOOL covers the shipping cost to return the unit (excluding customs fees and duties).

As an authorized WhisperKOOL dealer, we're glad to help you start your claim and coordinate with WhisperKOOL.

Limited warranty applies only to wine cooling units purchased directly from WhisperKOOL or through an authorized dealer. Damage caused by others or beyond WhisperKOOL's control is not considered a defect in material or workmanship and is not covered. The limited warranty does not cover parts or labor to correct any defect caused by negligence, commercial use, accident, improper maintenance, installation, service/repair, or improper use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose a twin system over a single unit?

Twin systems cover very large cellars with more even temperatures and add redundancy — if one unit needs service, the other keeps conditioning the room. They're ideal for expansive or multi-zone layouts.

Do I need a professional to install it?

Yes. Split systems require installation by a qualified, licensed HVAC/R technician; installation by anyone else voids the warranty.

How do I confirm this is the right size?

For a cellar this large, a heat-load calculation is essential — glass, ceiling height, ambient temperature, and zoning all matter. We're glad to help you run the numbers before you order.
