Wine Cellar Cooling Unit

You can build an affordable wine cellar using a CoolBot and a standard air conditioner. Whether you are a restaurant sommelier working on your wine room or just want a temperature-controlled space for storing your home wine collection, the CoolBot can be a great solution for your wine storage needs. Traditional wine storage systems are expensive – our customers would rather invest in amazing wine to stock their cellar than an overpriced cooling system. Build your wine cellar with a CoolBot and a standard air conditioner and save.

Here are a few tips for building the best cellar for your wine:

• Insulating to an R value of 16 is fine for most basement wine cellars (we suggest a minimum of R25 for most of our other applicaitions, but wine cellars are easier to keep cool)
• Keep a humidity level of 50% – 80% for safe wine storage. Most CoolBot-driven coolers maintain humidity levels in this range, so there shouldn’t be a need for additional humidification or dehumidification
• Keep a constant temperature set on your CoolBot and avoid major temperature fluctuations
• Make sure your cellar does not have any direct sunlight
• Use wine racks like this one to keep wine stored on its side
• Be sure to check the recommended cellaring time on the bottle label, or ask the wine store or vineyard for a recommendation
