Self-Contained Wine Cooling Systems

Serious wine lovers know that the secret to the best-tasting wine is the way it is stored. Proper wine storage mimics the wine caves in France; a dark and cool insulated space with the right humidity levels where wine can rest undisturbed. To achieve this result inside your wine cellar or cabinet requires the best self-contained wine cooling unit.

A Wine-Mate wine cellar refrigeration system will allow you to create the ideal environment for your wine. These patented units act as the heart and brain of your wine cellar, maintaining a subtle temperature and humidity. Self-contained units are popular because they require little to no setup. These wine cellar refrigeration units are available in a variety of shapes and sizes, ready for use in both residential or commercial spaces.

Self-contained cooling systems are ready for easy installation and use. They are ideal for your collection if your budget is limited and you would like to cool a smaller area. The condenser and evaporator are combined inside one appliance, which allows this category of cooling system to be set up quickly. They vent to the near surrounding space and require no drain. Self-contained cooling systems are designed to provide a subtle temperature between 50~65 °F for a properly insulated wine cellar. The humidity range of the refrigerated space can be maintained within 50~75% RH. These temperature and humidity ranges are optimized for long term storage of wine. Temperature is controlled and humidity is adjusted using patented technology. Multiple options of the rear or top or ducted exhaust are convenient for various installations. There are cabinet cooling systems with optimized bottom cold air supply and room cooling systems with optimized horizontal cold air supply. We offer SLIM, HTD, CD and HZD series.

Standard features for Wine-Mate Cooling Systems:

• Electronic control panels with LED display

Wine-Mate self-contained cooling units are highly customizable.

You may also further customize your cooling unit by selecting between multiple color options, adding a wine bottle probe, or adding a wine storage temperature and humidity monitor kit. Many of the self-contained cooling units are ductless. Please check out the specifications on each product page for further details, installation instructions, and noise information.
