THE COOLING SYSTEM
The cooling unit system is designed to maintain the set temperature under average
ambient conditions. Most wines will be stored in conditions of 50% to 70% humidity.
The unit will not remove excess humidity from the wine vault. In a humid climate, you
may need to find a means to remove humidity, such as a dehumidifier. In a dry climate,
you may need to find a means to add humidity, such as a fountain. The cooling system
gently cools the wine rather than quick chilling. Allow 48–120 hours for temperatures to
stabilize. This time may vary depending on starting temperature and quantity of wine
bottles added initially.
Temperature Setting
The unit can be set at any temperature within the acceptable wine-aging range of
50°F to 70°F ambient temperature. It is designed to cool 30°F cooler than the ambient
temperature of the exterior room, which should stay within the range of 45°F to 85°F.
Drain Line Connection
All units are equipped with a drain port for
additional removal of excess condensation in
high humidity areas. A drain line may need to
be attached to allow the condensation to drain.
A means to catch the condensation will need to
be placed below the drain line.
