Frequently Asked Questions

We're here to help you find the perfect wine cooler for your collection. Browse our most common questions below, or reach out to our team for personalised advice.

How do I choose the right wine cooler for my needs?

Consider three key factors: capacity (how many bottles you plan to store), available space (freestanding or built-in), and the types of wine you collect. If you enjoy both reds and whites, a dual-zone cooler offers the flexibility to store each at its ideal temperature. Our team is always happy to guide you through the selection process.

What's the difference between single-zone and dual-zone wine fridges?

A single-zone wine cooler maintains one consistent temperature throughout, ideal if you primarily collect one type of wine. Dual-zone models feature two independently controlled compartments, allowing you to store reds at around 15–18°C and whites at 7–13°C simultaneously. This versatility makes dual-zone coolers a popular choice for diverse collections.

Can a wine fridge be built into cabinetry?

Yes, many of our wine coolers are designed for built-in installation, creating a seamless, integrated look in your kitchen or entertaining space. These models feature front ventilation to ensure proper airflow. It's essential to check the specific ventilation requirements and dimensions before installation. If you're unsure, our specialists can recommend the best options for your layout.

How noisy are wine coolers?

Modern wine coolers are engineered for quiet operation, typically producing between 35–45 decibels—comparable to a whisper or a quiet library. Compressor-based models may emit a gentle hum, while thermoelectric units are virtually silent. We prioritise models with advanced insulation and vibration reduction, ensuring your wine ages peacefully without disturbance.

What warranty and after-sales support do you offer?

All our wine coolers come with a comprehensive manufacturer's warranty, typically covering parts and labour for 1–2 years, with extended options available. Our dedicated customer support team is here to assist with installation guidance, troubleshooting, and maintenance advice. We believe in building lasting relationships with our customers, ensuring your investment is protected for years to come.
