I bought this unit to replace a commercial assemblage of components that had failed repeatedly. The wine room is 8X10X4, for roughly 320 cu. ft. The unit works as advertised, cooling the room to less than 55 degrees in the startup but bringing the bottle temperature to 55 degrees exactly. As it stabilized, the room temperature is gradually coming up to the same as bottle temperature (55).
I had it professionally installed, and though not necessary, it worked out well for my installation. I recommend spending the extra money for your local refrigeration company to install it.
Very pleased with performance, looks and quiet. My neighbors and my wife both appreciate the last element.
This new model has one improvement over the old one in that it's thermostat is digital.We haven't had the new one quite 2 months yet, but it is performing just fine. The old one needed to be sent to a factory repair center about half way through its life. That was frustrating because they had the unit for 6 weeks to repair a leak in the refrigerant lines. We're keeping our fingers crossed for this new model. Basically, WhisperKOOL is about the only game in town for small wine cellar climate control. We were pleased that the dimensions of the new model were identical to the old one's, so we did not need to modify our cellar wall opening to have it fit properly. July 10, 2013.
Easy install. Has worked great so far. It is quieter than the previous model
Much improved from the older version, but fits perfectly in the same opening. Works as advertised.
So far, working perfectly.

Description
2049 BTUH.
The SC Series embodies the latest and greatest system design technologies in an all-new housing design. Developed upon feedback directly from customers and installers, the unit incorporates a variety of high end componentry at an affordable price point. WhisperKOOL 3000i Wine Cooling Unit (P/N 3000i). The SC Series is a direct replacement for one of the most well known cellar cooling units, the XLT. Just like the series it replaces, the units come in 5 models that effectively cool a 300 up to 2000 cu. ft. properly insulated environment.
Designed for simple through-the-wall installation, the unit fits between standard wall studs and a single piece mounting bracket eliminates the need for a support shelf.
The SC has a 30°F temperature differential. In order to keep your cellar at 55°F, the area the unit exhausts into should not exceed 85°F. This makes interior installation ideal for SC series units. Bottle Probe is included.
Capacity: Up to 650 Cu Ft.
Decibels: 60 dbA (Evaporator & Condenser)
I have seen some of the other reviews on this product. I have owned this product for two years after having the older XLT model for the previous 8 years. This unit fit nicely into the same slot as the previous unit. It looks good, keeps my wine at the right temperature, no problems. This system runs less often than the last unit i had. it appears to be more efficient, quieter and have different fans that blow air up at an angle rather than down on the older unit. so far i am happy with it.
