Wine Cellar Design & Installation Service in Glen Ellyn, Illinois

If you are considering the addition of a new, custom wine cellar to your Glen Ellyn home or business, Contact A-Perfect climate today! Our highly experienced team understands that Wine Storage, creates a unique challenge to the contractor faced with the task of installing the mechanical refrigeration components for this application.

The temperature and humidity requirements are far different than what is wanted for comfort cooling, or refrigeration of food products.

Along the same lines, the equipment and installation requirements are quite different as well. Quite often, without realization, a homeowner or general contractor may hire an air conditioning contractor, to do the job of a refrigeration technician; when in reality, the two trades are vastly different upon closer inspection.

The nuances of a wine cellar installation are many and varied.

First, when considering a wine cellar or wine cabinet; it should be taken into consideration that the environment of a natural cellar, with passive air movement and with minimal air or mechanical noise is desirable, and will be much more enjoyable, over a high static pressure installation. Duct sizing and equipment selection is critical.

Very often, the cellar may be a place to dwell, while sorting and documenting inventory, labeling for maturation, or tasting. A poorly installed refrigeration system, may be noisy and unsightly, and will rob the cellar owner of these joys.

Next, the medium temperature equipment, designed for low humidity removal, requires many installation nuances, to assure that compressor lubrication is achieved, as well as condenser alterations for specific applications. The environment that the compressor is located, as well as how and where it is mounted, all comes into consideration, when putting in place a plan for a reliable installation, which also equates to a service friendly installation.

Wine Cellar Temperature Control System Installation Glen Ellyn

The cellar has to be, without compromise, an environment unto itself

If a ducted system is chosen as the desired, or best application for the design, this means all ductwork must be meticulously sealed and insulated.

If a non-ducted system, such as a ductless split system is the requirement, often times unique challenges face an installer, not only for making the original installation required connections, for drain, refrigeration lines and electric; but also making the unit serviceable for future maintenance and repairs.

A-Perfect Climate, has installed over one hundred wine cellar and wine cabinet installations in the Glen Ellyn, Illinois area since 2006. We have developed unique methods of overcoming many of these challenges.

Wine Cellar Maintenance Service in Glen Ellyn

A-Perfect Climate not only does custom new installations, but also services what we install, and installations done by others.

Unfortunatly, not every company that installs wine cellars, has the necessary temperature control experience and therefore fail to deliver long lasting wine cellars to their clients. As a matter of fact, nearly 50% of the new installations which we have done in the past several years, have been replacements of poor installations; equipment put in by those who may have not installed a wine cellar in the past, or perhaps did one or two installations, and then walked away after the trouble started. Leaving the frustrated owners to fend for themselves and to find someone willing to try and salvage a bad installation. Many of these installations were only 3 – 8 years old. For this reason, we offer FULL MAINTEANCE service on wine cellars. Contact us today to learn more.
