6. EQUIPMENT
The climate control system
According to advice from specialists, the ideal temperature for storing wine is around 12°C,
within a bracket of 10 to 14°C. Do not confuse this with service temperature, which varies
between 5 and 20°C, depending on the specific nature of the wine.
It is especially important to avoid sudden changes in temperature. Designed by specialists for
oenophiles, this appliance, unlike a simple refrigerator, takes into account the sensitivity of
grand cru wines to sudden variations in temperature by ensuring the close control of a
constant average temperature.
The anti-vibration system
The refrigeration compressor is equipped with special dampers (silent-blocks) and the inner
space is insulated from the body by a thick layer of polyurethane foam. These characteristics
prevent the transmission of vibration to your wines.
The Winter function
The appliance has a higher electrical resistance to compensate for an ambient
temperature that is too low, up to 5°C on average. Nevertheless, in winter, we
recommend monitoring the interior temperature when the cellar is located in a garage,
veranda or other poorly insulated room, because the night temperatures are often
negative. Excessive temperature can alter the taste of the wine, even damage or
extract the cork.
Whatever the cause, if you occasionally notice abnormal temperature or humidity
inside your wine cellar, only long and frequent exposure to these abnormal conditions
can have a harmful effect on your wines.
Defrosting
Your appliance is equipped with an automatic defrost cycle. When a cooling cycle finishes,
the appliance's refrigerated surfaces are defrosted automatically. The defrost water is
