EuroCave Inoa 25, Inoa 50 User Manual

Did you know?

Is it worthwhile installing a conditioner in
a “real” cellar?

Yes • Whilst they may appear ideal for wine
storage, not all cellars meet the 6 criteria for
conserving wine. The Inoa conditioner overcomes
these shortcomings.

How to best choose your cellar conditioner

The result of
30 years of
expertise in
storing wine,
E u r o C a ve ’s
Inoa cellar
co nd it ion er s
allow you to
transform any
type of room
into a real wine
cellar.

1 Ideally controlled

temperatures

Extreme temperatures and fluctuations in
temperature adversely affect wine storage. A high
performance temperature regulation system is
therefore essential.

2 levels of technology

1• a regulation system placed on the
appliance

This is not the most effective type of regulation
system. If the sensor and control panel are placed
on the appliance they cannot accurately measure
and display the room temperature.

2• EuroCave – a unique regulation system
with remote control

By placing the wireless*
remote control as close as
possible to your bottles,
you can see and adjust the
temperature of your cellar
with the most accurate
measurement possible.

Owing to their unique design,
Inoa conditioners ensure a uniform temperature
(between 9° and 15°C) whatever the temperature
is outside the room. Fitted with a heating function
as standard (650W), in addition to conditioning,
Inoa conditioners automatically adapt their
temperature if the room temperature differs by
half a degree to the programmed temperature.

*Wired sensor available as an optional extra for placing the
remote control outside the room.

Cellar Conditioners

2 Humidity

is preserved

Because humidity conditions are optimised,
bottle corks retain their sealing properties.
Standard conditioners have a natural tendency
to dry out the air. It is therefore essential to
maintain a level of humidity above 50%.

2 levels of technology

1• Systems which dehumidify the air

These systems operate with an evaporation
temperature lower than 0°C. As a result, the
appliance has a tendency to dehumidify the
room to be conditioned. In order to maintain a
suitable level of humidity, humidifiers are often
sold as an optional extra. This is not an ideal
solution.

2• EuroCave – the natural level of
humidity is preserved

The unique patented technology is based
on an evaporation temperature above 0°C
and automatic adjustment of fan speeds. The
relative level of humidity is thus above 50%
and drying out of the cellar air is kept to a
minimum. The level of humidity is ideal…and
requires no intervention from you.

3 Conditioners ideal

for any environment

The conditioners are designed to transform any room into
a wine cellar. They have to be hard-wearing, attractive and
easy to install so that they fit in with all environments..

3 exclusive advantages which set this conditioner apart:

2 levels of quality

1• Single installation systems

With little importance placed on aesthetics, these single­piece systems are fitted to the wall, spoiling the appearance
of your room. No modularity is possible. Furthermore,
their housing is not of a very high quality.

2• EuroCave – a conditioner that respects the
appearance of your cellar

Designed to respect the appearance of your cellar,
Inoa conditioners are fitted with a very discreet front
panel in galvanised steel – to be placed
inside or outside your cellar, according
to your preference. Furthermore, the
conditioner’s housing is designed to ensure
excellent resistance to corrosion. In order
to respect the appearance of your cellar,
Inoa conditioners offer an incomparable
choice of installation options.

• The quietest conditioner on the market

Its system, which automatically adjusts speeds to ambient
temperature conditions, combined with the use of
particularly quiet fans, allows the conditioner to function
very discreetly.

The conditioner’s housing is completely sound-proof (20
mm polyethylene foam) and the compressor and fans
are fitted with silent blocks which absorb any residual
vibration.

> The unique design of EuroCave conditioners guarantees
a very low noise level. You will benefit from an acoustic
pressure which is 8 dBA lower than standard conditioners
on the market.

• Energy-saving technology

Unlike standard conditioners, which operate continuously
whatever the outside temperature is, EuroCave
conditioners do not activate the compressor very often
(because of the automatic speed adjustment system) and
are therefore energy efficient.

The insulation between the condenser and the evaporator
minimises any exchange between the cold and hot sections

of the appliance, which results in optimal performance.

> ➢ EuroCave conditioners allow you to store your wine
without wasting energy.

• The only conditioner to respect the aesthetics of
its environment

Designed to respect the appearance of your cellar,
Inoa conditioners are built to last (excellent resistance
to corrosion) whilst at the same time respecting the
aesthetics of their surroundings. Their modular design
allows them to adapt to any constraints of space.

Inoa conditioners are the only
conditioners that respect the
aesthetics of their environment,
whilst ensuring optimal performance
and impressive energy savings!

Inoa cellar conditioners

– exclusive advantages

Single-piece: an easy to fit product

EuroCave conditioners are cast in one piece: they include the evaporator
and the condenser in the same unit. In this way, they do not need to be
charged with gas or soldered. A wall socket is all you need! To make fitting
easier, Inoa conditioners come supplied with a metallic mounting frame,
which simplifies the process of drilling air entry and exit holes. They are
also equipped with extendable ducting to be cut to length in order to
install the conditioner whatever the thickness of the wall.

Easy operation

Similar to wine cabinets, the EuroCave conditioner is fitted with a refrigerating
unit:

• an evaporator forces cold air inside
the room,

• a condenser expels the hot air
outside.

Given the volume to be conditioned,
the evaporator and condenser
are fan-driven. The evaporator fan
operates continuously to ensure
that the air is constantly mixed and
that temperatures are as uniform as
possible, in accordance with speeds
automatically adjusted according to

A modular design to adapt to your constraints of space

requirements.

performance.

EuroCave cellar conditioners have been designed to store your wine
in ideal temperature conditions, whilst at the same time guaranteeing
minimal electricity consumption. As traditional building materials
are very poor insulators, it is essential, in the majority of cases, to
insulate the room to be conditioned. In this way, the energy used
by your appliance will be minimal and the insulation will allow your
conditioner to function at its best.

Warning! Failure to insulate
increases the power required
to condition your room by a
factor of 3.
