I am considering replacing my ailing WineZone 5700 spilt wine refrigeration system. They have replaced that unit with the newer 6800 and I am unable to find any reviews online on it. I am hoping some of you may have that unit and have some feedback for me, positive and negative.
I am looking at is the CellarPro 6000s.
Please share your feedback on either of these or if you have a different unit which you like.
I have a rear ducted 3200, I had planned and even stubbed out for a split system. After talking to Cellarpro and doing the “audit” and giving them my specs they suggested I buy the cheaper unit, which to me says a lot. Every part of the process was very easy.
I did the installation myself and had one question about the duct run that was quickly answered by phone. It’s been in service about a year. If you search cellar build and/or Cellarpro there are lots of posts about this and specifically these and even bigger units.
*i live in Texas so the cooling unit was a big decision.
Best of luck
I’d choose the CP, it uses R-134A refrigerant. The WZ uses R-22 (outdated $$$) or one of the R-22 replacements which have little consistency between contractors. The support at CP is about as good as it gets.
I wouldn’t rely on reviews for split systems, the outcome is based on proper sizing and a quality install, just too many variables.
Even if the #'s are close 5700 vs 6000 don’t use them as a sizing metric, a proper heat loss should be done. The BTU ratings are easily manipulated and can significantly vary manufacturer to manufacturer.
