SENTINEL SERIES · Ducted Cooling Unit
DP25WC Ducted Wine Cellar Cooling Unit
The DP25WC is a self-contained, water-cooled Pro-grade wine cellar cooling unit built to hold a wine room at 55°F to 58°F with a rated capacity of 1,000–3,760 BTU/h at 80°F ambient.
This is the water-cooled configuration of the DP25: instead of venting heat into the surrounding air, it rejects heat through a water loop, which suits installations with limited ventilation, high ambient temperatures, or noise-sensitive locations. The unit is sized for small residential and commercial wine cellars holding roughly 250 to 2000 cubic feet.
Every unit ships with a coated evaporator coil, a Wireless2Base remote interface controller, an aluminum chassis with UL-rated composite panels, and Wine Guardian fail-safe protection. The Pro line adds a higher-capacity Pro chassis for demanding commercial-grade duty cycles. As an authorized Wine Guardian dealer, we list the DP25WC with full manufacturer specifications so you can compare and size it correctly. Final sizing should be confirmed with the Wine Guardian cooling calculator and a qualified contractor.

Is the DP25WC Right for Your Cellar?
✓ Ideal For
- Small residential or commercial wine rooms, roughly 250 to 2000 cubic feet
- Cellars where the cooling unit can sit outside the room and connect by ductwork
- Owners who want quiet, out-of-sight cooling with no equipment inside the cellar
- Installations with limited ventilation, high ambient heat, or noise sensitivity (water rejects the heat)
- Commercial-grade duty cycles that call for the Pro chassis
✕ Consider Another Model If
- You need a plug-and-play unit inside the cellar wall (consider a through-the-wall unit)
- Your cellar is larger than about 2000 cubic feet (size up to the D050 or above)
Key Features
| Feature | What it means for your cellar |
|---|---|
| Self-contained ducted design | All components (evaporator, fans, compressor, condenser, controls) sit in one unit outside the cellar, so the wine room stays quiet and clutter-free. |
| Water-cooled heat rejection cooling | Rejects heat through a water loop instead of cellar air, ideal where ventilation is limited or ambient temperatures run high. |
| Coated evaporator coil | Protects the evaporator side against corrosion for durable, reliable performance over long service life. |
| Wireless2Base remote interface controller | Monitors temperature and humidity continuously and corrects conditions before your wine is affected; place the controller in a kitchen, den, or elsewhere. |
| Precision control (±1°F / ±10% RH) | Holds wine-storage conditions of 55°F to 58°F, with an optional humidifier for 55% to 65% relative humidity. |
| Aluminum chassis with UL-rated composite panels | UL-rated composite panels are roughly five times stronger than before and resist dents and scratches during shipping and installation. |
| Field-serviceable, multi-panel access | Panels, duct collars, and grille remove with a couple of screwdriver turns, so service happens on-site without returning the unit to the factory. |
| Optional bundles and humidification | All Wine Temperatures, Extreme Climate Protection, and Ultimate bundles add heating, low/high ambient protection, and serving-temperature control as your space requires. |
Built-in protection: the system continuously checks conditions through remote air sensing and adjusts before temperature or humidity drift can affect the collection.
How Quiet Is It
Why a Ducted Unit Keeps the Cellar Quiet
Wine Guardian does not publish a single decibel rating for ducted units, because the most important noise factor is placement: the DP25WC installs outside the wine room and connects through insulated ductwork, so the compressor and fans are not in the space you occupy.
- The unit sits in a utility room, closet, or adjacent space, away from the cellar.
- Internal components are mounted on rubber-in-shear isolators to reduce vibration and noise.
- Flexible ductwork absorbs air noise, and sound drops further each time a duct run turns a corner.

Frequently Asked Questions
DP25WC Ducted Unit FAQs
How much cooling capacity does the DP25WC provide?
The DP25WC is rated at 1,000–3,760 BTU/h at an 80°F ambient condenser inlet, and is recommended for wine cellars of roughly 250 to 2000 cubic feet. Net capacity changes with ambient temperature; the full table is in the specifications above. Final sizing should be confirmed with the Wine Guardian cooling calculator and a qualified contractor.
Does the DP25WC need a licensed contractor to install?
Yes. Water-cooled units involve a water connection and are typically installed by a licensed contractor. A licensed HVAC professional or qualified contractor should confirm the final installation design.
Can the DP25WC control humidity?
The unit controls temperature precisely and displays humidity. To actively raise humidity to 55% to 65% relative humidity, add an integrated or freestanding Wine Guardian humidifier, which connects to the system.
How is the water-cooled DP25WC different from the air-cooled version?
The water-cooled configuration rejects heat through a water loop instead of venting it into the air. That makes it a strong choice where ventilation is limited, ambient temperatures are high, or noise must be minimized. It uses the same cabinet and controls as the air-cooled unit.
Is the DP25WC covered by a warranty?
Yes. Wine Guardian provides a standard warranty of 2 years parts, 1 year labor (standard). A Platinum warranty option extends coverage to Platinum option: 2 years parts and labor plus a 3-year extension on the compressor, evaporator coil, and condenser coil. Warranty service is handled through the manufacturer.
