Common Questions from Wine Collectors
Understanding Wine Cellar Climate Control
Why can’t I use a standard AC unit for my wine cellar?
Traditional HVAC systems cool too quickly, remove too much humidity, and fluctuate in ways that can damage wine. A dedicated wine cooling system maintains steady temperature and moisture levels designed specifically for preservation.
What temperature should my wine cellar stay at?
Most wine cellars are maintained around 55 degrees with balanced humidity. The exact settings depend on the type of wine you store and the size of your space.
Do you install cooling units in existing closets or small spaces?
Yes. We frequently convert closets, pantries, and under-stair areas into climate-controlled wine storage, and we select compact systems suited for small-room installations.
How often should I service my wine cooling system?
Yearly maintenance is recommended to keep coils clean, sensors accurate, and refrigerant levels stable. Regular service helps prevent costly failures that could compromise your collection.
Do you travel outside the Mooresville area for wine cellar projects?
Yes. We provide statewide service for wine cellar installations and repairs, including Raleigh, Charlotte, Asheville, and coastal regions.
