It is also a direct replacement for the Breezaire WKC 1060 and OEM 1060. Designed exclusively for wine preservation, the WKCE 1060 helps maintain stable storage temperatures, balanced humidity, quiet operation, and low-vibration performance in compact cabinet installations. Quick Product Snapshot Product Type Wine cabinet cooling unit Model Breezaire WKCE 1060 Cooling Capacity Up to 140 cu. ft. Installation Type Through-the-wall Cooling Output 1060 BTU Electrical Requirements 115V / 60Hz / 3A Noise Level 58 DBA Warranty 1 year labor / 5 years parts Who the Breezaire WKCE 1060 Is Best For Best For Custom wine cabinets up to 140 cubic feet Furniture-integrated wine storage systems Compact wine cabinet installations Replacement of Breezaire WKC 1060 and OEM 1060 units Projects requiring compact rear-vented cooling Not Recommended For Large walk-in wine cellars Wine rooms exceeding 140 cubic feet Standard refrigeration applications Unsealed or poorly insulated enclosures Installations without proper rear-side ventilation Product Overview The Breezaire WKCE 1060 Wine Cooling Unit for Wine Cabinets is designed for compact wine storage applications where a traditional wine cellar cooling unit may be oversized or difficult to install. Its cold-air discharge at the bottom makes it especially suitable for cabinet-style installations and other constricted wine storage enclosures. The WKCE 1060 is designed to cool approximately 25°F below the ambient temperature on the venting side of the unit. For best performance, the wine cabinet must be properly sealed, insulated, and ventilated. Important: Breezaire wine cooling systems are specialized wine storage products. They are not intended for conventional refrigeration applications. Browse additional Breezaire wine cooling systems if you need a different cooling configuration. Key Features Adjustable Temperature Control The integrated thermostat supports proper wine storage temperatures between 50°F and 60°F. Automatic Humidity Management The system helps maintain relative humidity in the 50% to 75% range to support cork and label preservation. Low-Vibration Design Vibration-dampening mounts help reduce unnecessary movement around aging wine. Quiet Operation The WKCE 1060 operates quietly for residential wine cabinet and premium home environments. Durable Metal Cabinet The attractive metal housing is designed to integrate cleanly into custom cabinetry and wine storage spaces. Simplified Installation No plumbing, complicated wiring, or on-site refrigerant charging is required. Advantages and Considerations Advantages Designed specifically for wine cabinet applications Compact footprint Direct replacement for WKC 1060 and OEM 1060 Automatic humidity management Electronic controls and digital temperature display Automatic defrost system Factory charged and ready for installation Considerations Not designed for full-size wine cellars Performance depends on enclosure insulation and ventilation Additional moisture may be required in extremely dry climates Do not use as a standard refrigerator Improper placement can reduce cooling performance Humidity notice: In very dry ambient conditions, the desired enclosure humidity may not be achieved without adding moisture. Use only slow, natural evaporation from a small porous water container. Do not use a humidifier. Installation Requirements The Breezaire WKCE 1060 is intended for through-the-wall wine cabinet installations with rear exhaust.

Control System Video Warning: Unplug the unit before changing Sentry III settings or wiring. Wiring Diagram Images Sentry III+ Features Large, easy-to-read green display Accurate, easy-to-adjust temperature set points Continuous cabinet temperature display Power outage protection Blocked airflow protection Temperature control by enclosure air sensors or optional bottle probe Factory charged and ready for use when mounted and connected to a 115V AC power source Intelligent programming that monitors temperature and fan speed Product Videos Learn more about the Breezaire WKCE Series wine cellar cooling system and related setup options through the videos below. Optional Bottle Probe The optional Breezaire Bottle Probe allows the system to regulate temperature based on the actual liquid temperature inside a bottle instead of cabinet air temperature. This is useful for collectors who want more precise wine temperature monitoring. Allow the enclosure to stabilize at the desired temperature for approximately 72 hours. Fill a normal-size wine bottle with water, insert the bottle probe into the bottle, and place it in the enclosure. Do not connect the bottle probe to the unit until the bottle has cooled to the enclosure temperature. Once connected to the outlet on the face of the unit, the system will operate based on the temperature of the liquid in the bottle. The displayed temperature will also reflect the liquid temperature. Unplugging the bottle probe returns the unit to the internal air sensor. The bottle probe cord is 5 feet long. Manuals and Downloads Breezaire WKCE Series Installation Manual Sentry III Plus Controller Owner’s Manual Warranty Details Expert Recommendation The Breezaire WKCE 1060 is a strong choice for homeowners, cabinet makers, designers, and wine collectors building compact wine storage installations up to 140 cubic feet. Its cabinet-focused design, simplified installation, automatic humidity management, and digital controls make it practical for furniture-style wine storage systems.
