🍷 Top 7 Tips to Maintain Your Wine Room’s Refrigeration System

When it comes to designing the perfect wine room, aesthetics are just one part of the puzzle. The true heart of any wine room is its refrigeration system. Without it, even the most luxurious space can become a wine lover’s nightmare.

To help you protect your prized collection and keep your system running smoothly, here are 7 expert tips from ACRO Refrigeration to ensure long-lasting performance.


1️⃣ Check Temperature Settings Regularly

📏 Ideal range: 7°C to 18°C (12°C is perfect)
Weekly temperature checks can prevent spoilage. Use a digital thermometer for accuracy and consistency.


💧 2. Maintain Proper Humidity Levels

💡 Aim for 50%–70% relative humidity
Humidity too low? Corks dry out. Too high? Mould risk. Use a hygrometer and humidifier/dehumidifier as needed.


🧹 3. Clean the Coils Quarterly

Dirty coils force your system to work harder.
Turn off power, and vacuum or brush coils every 3 months for optimal energy efficiency.


🚪 4. Inspect Door Seals

Old seals = air leaks = unstable environment.
🔍 Check for cracks or wear. Replace immediately to maintain climate integrity.


🔊 5. Listen for Unusual Noises

Your system should be nearly silent.
⚠️ Clicking, rattling, or buzzing? Get it checked. These sounds can indicate issues like worn-out parts or compressor failure.


🛠️ 6. Schedule Regular Professional Maintenance

Some issues need expert attention.
📅 Book a yearly service with a commercial refrigeration specialist (like us!) to spot problems early and fine-tune your system.


7. Prepare for Emergencies

Power outage? System failure? Be ready.
🔌 Install a backup generator, and keep our repair hotline close at hand. A quick response saves wine and stress.


🍇 Preserve What Matters Most

Your wine room is more than storage—it’s a sanctuary for taste, memory, and tradition. A single overlooked detail could cost you a prized bottle. These simple maintenance habits safeguard the joy behind every pour.


🥂 Imagine This...

You host a dinner party. The wine room is pristine.
You open the door. The temperature’s perfect.
You pull that special bottle—and smile. 🍾
That’s the reward of a well-maintained system.
