The ThermoCold PRO wine conditioning split system is offered in three variants, designed to cater to wine cellars of 6m³, 10m³, and 16m³. This digital model, featuring advanced overheating protection, has been expertly redesigned in the UK by Elextric Ltd and is exclusively available through our services. Installation is performed solely by our team, and this system is not available for direct purchase by the public.

** Proper insulation tailored to the cellar’s size will help lower the amount of energy consumed when operating temperatures are moderate. However, should the temperature reach 35 °C, the device may struggle to maintain a cellar temperature of 12 °C.
Electrical
A standard socket outlet is required; this system comes with a standard UK plug.
Water Drainage
Kindly consider the water drainage; this system has a condensation tray linked to a tube, which must be connected to the drainage.
Cellar Insulation
To ensure optimal wine conditioning and achieve the ideal temperature in the cellar, it is essential to insulat floors, ceilings, and walls using rigid insulation material like XPS or KingsPan, as the manufacturer recommends. Additionally, the cellar door should be insulated, and any glass door must feature double or triple glazing. Refer to the table below for the necessary insulation thickness based on the cellar’s size.

Wine Conditioning Split System
There are three different models available to accommodate a wine cellar with capacities of 6 cubic metres, 10 cubic metres, and 16 cubic metres.
TL6 PRO for cellars up to 6m³.
TL10 PRO for cellars up to 10m³.
TL16 PRO for cellars up to 16m³
– Sealed environment: When describing the importance of cellar insulation to my clients, I often use the term sealed environment. Same as a cold room or a fridge, creating a fully-enclosed area with insulated walls, ceiling, floor, and door will construct a tightly-sealed environment. I recommend using XPS insulation materials for this task.
– Wine Racking: I would recommend the racking per hole, as it allows the entire bottle to reach the ideal temperature and promotes air circulation within the cellar. Ultimately, however, the decision is up to the client.
– Unit location: The Winemaster is reliant upon air circulation for its function, and thus it is highly advised to locate the unit as centrally as possible.
– Water drainage: When planning for the draining of condensation water, one should keep in mind that water always follows the laws of gravity. If the pipe length is too long, a condensation pump may be used as a viable solution.
– Operation temperature: This is related to the hot side of the unit (The compressor side) where the heat exchange is happening. For example, if the heat exchange happens within a plant room or utility room and the ambient temperature exceeds 30°c, an MHRV Mechanical Heat Recovery Ventilation system must be used.
– Planning ahead is key to determining which wine conditioning unit to install. Then, design your cellar around the unit to ensure that both the electrical connection and the unit are within easy access.
I will update this section regularly based on my interactions with customers. If you have any queries or need help, please don’t hesitate to contact me through the enquiry form.
Regular maintenance of the dust filter is essential. Use a soft vacuum to clean it once every three months, and ensure it is replaced annually. To purchase a new dust filter for the ThermoCold, please visit this page HERE
