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.
📏 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.
💡 Aim for 50%–70% relative humidity
Humidity too low? Corks dry out. Too high? Mould risk. Use a hygrometer and humidifier/dehumidifier as needed.
Dirty coils force your system to work harder.
✅ Turn off power, and vacuum or brush coils every 3 months for optimal energy efficiency.
Old seals = air leaks = unstable environment.
🔍 Check for cracks or wear. Replace immediately to maintain climate integrity.
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.
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.
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.
