If anyone has experience with wine cellar refrigeration…I am considering installing a self-contained system (like Whisperair) and wonder what the drawbacks might be.

Listeners write in about haunted pipes and building-science tomes, and they ask questions about roof venting and roof leaks.

You might tend to drink more wine.
Is that supposed to be a drawback?

Well, I suppose the Kegmeister will get less use, so it might be a good thing. P.S.
Was offered tickets to the Rangers game Wednesday, but the DW has us going to Carnegie Hall that nite...aaargghh.
Hoping for a Sens-Rangers matchup.
You'd better hope real hard.
They're playin' like schlitz!
Aint been the same team since the Olympics.

Sorry for hi-jacking your thread with all the jocularity.
I do know someone who is/has installed a similar system. I will inquire about any issues and post back.
Is that a package a/c unit, or a large wine refrigerator? I'm working with a cient who started off wanting a walk-in wine room, chilled to about 55*, but then they switched to a nicely finished room at ambient temp with a couple of large glass-front wine coolers.
In thier case, one problem was finding a location for the outside compressor unit, and the inside fan coil unit. And then the possible condensation issues with a cool humid room surrounded by ambient air.

it is a separate self-contained wine refrigeration unit that does not require HVAC certification to install.
