Wine Cellar Cooling Systems
Refrigerated Custom Wine Cellar San Diego
If you want to collect wine but are not willing to invest in a refrigerated wine cellar, then you are wasting your time and money. You can’t preserve wine for years if it is stored in poor conditions. Keeping wine in the best possible environment will allow you to experience long-lasting enjoyment. To ensure that your custom wine cellar in San Diego performs well, it must be equipped with an efficient refrigeration system.
Why Do You Need a Wine Cellar Cooling System
Wines Stored in a Cellar Equipped with an Efficient Cooling System
Wine will age well in rooms with stable conditions. Storing it in a room equipped with the right cooling system will prevent it from deteriorating rapidly. This is why climate-controlled wine cellars are increasing in demand for both residential owners and businesses that sell wine.
If you want your wines to last, your cellar must be installed with an efficient cooling unit to prevent temperature fluctuations and variable humidity levels.
Create the Perfect Environment for the Proper Preservation of Wine
It’s wrong to think that it’s okay to store wine in a room cooled by a regular air conditioner. Wine is delicate. It ages properly in rooms with the ideal environment.
Wine will deteriorate if you store it in an environment that is too hot or too cold. Regular fluctuations in storage conditions will also damage the wine.
With the right choice of a cooling system, your wine cellar will perform at its best. At Custom Wine Cellars San Diego, we offer a wide range of wine refrigeration systems that will cater to the specific needs of each client.
All of our cooling units are designed to achieve the optimum temperature (55 to 65 degrees Fahrenheit) and the ideal humidity level (50 to 70 percent). If the temperature goes above the normal range, the wine will spoil.
If the humidity level goes below 50 percent, the cork will dry out and crack, allowing an unwanted amount of oxygen to enter the bottles. This will cause oxidation, which ruins the wine. On the other hand, high levels of humidity will trigger mold growth on the wine labels, the racking, walls, and ceiling.
Before selecting the unit for your cellar, our technical team makes a careful assessment of your needs, so it will be of the right size, capacity, and type.
Different Types of Wine Cellar Cooling Systems
Self-Contained Wine Cooling System
When choosing the type of wine refrigeration unit, one must consider the physical location of the cellar. We determine the possibilities for the installation of your wine cellar cooling system. We then choose the right unit size by performing a heat load calculation. This process will help us determine the correct BTUs required for the room’s location.
We offer three types of cooling units: self-contained, ductless split, and ducted split systems.
Self-Contained Refrigeration System
An affordable cooling option for your custom wine cellar in San Diego. is the self-contained system. Unlike other types of refrigeration systems, this unit’s installation does not require an HVAC technician.
This will save you from spending the professional fee of the installer.
The self-contained wine cooling unit is installed through the wall and needs a well-ventilated adjacent room for the hot air exhaust. It can be a spare room in your basement, mechanical room, or garage, and must be of the same size as your wine cellar. It utilizes two fans for more efficient cooling.
Ducted Split Wine Cooling System
Ducted Wine Refrigeration System
Custom Wine Cellars San Diego recommends the ducted split wine refrigeration system for cooling small wine cellars. This is because the evaporator and condenser are installed outside the room, so no equipment occupies the cellar. This also means that a venting room is not required.
Both the evaporator and the condensing units can be housed in one unit or can be placed in different locations.
Ductless Split System
Ductless Split Refrigeration System
Another option is the ductless split system, which requires the evaporator to be installed inside the cellar. The condenser, which is the noisier component of the system, can be placed outside the cellar. Just like the ducted split system, there is no need for venting into an adjoining room for heat dissipation.
This setup requires ducting because the evaporator and condenser are connected by copper tubing and electrical wiring. The installation of the ductless split system requires an HVAC technician.
