FEATURES

THERMOELECTRIC COOLING

Thermoelectric (also referred to as semiconductor) wine cellars oer high reliability and low maintenance while precisely maintaining the set temperature for storing wine.

Because thermoelectric wine cellars do not use a compressor for cooling there is minimal noise and vibration. In addition to being extremely quiet, the lack of vibration will keep bubbles from forming in stored wine.

Thermoelectric technology is environmentally friendly, because no CFC, HCFC, or HCF-type refrigerants are involved in the cooling process.
