The Thermoelectric Module is the heart of the wine cabinet's cooling system and was discovered by Peltier in 1834. Today, thanks to the progress in the field of semiconductors, they are solidly built in a coin size. The semiconductors are manufactured using telluride and bismuth, type P or N, respectively, (good electricity conductors and poor heat conductors), thus making it easier for heat to transfer from the cold side to the hot side due to the effect of a continuous current, in our case 3.3. & 5 amps.

* WINE CABINET'S COOLING SYSTEM

The small size explains the high technology required to obtain the refrigeration at a negligible cost. The cooling system has incorporated to the module: thermostats, sensors, a potentiometer...

ADVANTAGES:

• Low energy consumption (approximately 39 watts - 15 euros/year). Find out the consumption of other refrigerated wine cabinets, especially if they are intended for use in restaurants, and remember that we operate at 12/24 volts whilst other manufacturers operate at 220 volts.
• Long-lasting performance since they are solid and have a life of approximately 20 years.
• Absence of vibrations, which are harmful for the preservation of the wine. Systems based on compressors not only produce vibrations but also have a considerable energy consumption.
• They do not dry out the air and therefore do not reduce the level of humidity.
• Continuous cooling at the required temperature.
• Digital Control: Just set the target temperature and enjoy of your wine.

* MAINTENANCE/REPAIR/REPLACEMENT OF THE WINE CABINET

The maintenance cost is as little as 12 euros/7 years (equivalent to the cost of the small fan for heat dissipation). Nothing to do with other systems such as the Absorption system which requires regular replacement of the cooling liquid.

Repair costs are very low and simple. In other systems repairs are complex and in many cases entails the purchase of a new one. The assembly/dismantling of the cooling system in the wine cabinet only takes a few minutes (8 screws).

* OAK WINE CABINET (hand-crafted)

The walls, including the door, are made of oak (20 mm - 0.79 in) + isolation + oak (20 mm - 0.79 in). Leaks of cold air are non-existent ( the doors have a perimetrical double draft excluder). Our insulating material is outstanding, providing thermal and acoustic fireproof insulation.

In the event of ordering glass doors, the frame of each glass door of a wine cabinet is formed by a sandwich of oak-isolation-oak and by a 4 panes of glass sandwich (a safety glass, an anti UV glass, an air chamber, a single glass, another air chamber and finally another single glass). Why not ask for the composition of other refrigerated wine cabinets and request guarantees?

Each lock has a special safety key and each door has four special hinges to guarantee a long life.

Solid oak shelves and OAK's holing system.These are designed in such a manner that:

• The bottles do not touch each other (individual bottle racks) and each bottle can be taken out without touching the other bottles.
• The bottles have a slight inclination of 5% allowing the sediments of the oldest wines to deposit at the bottom of the bottle and permitting the visibility of the bottles.
• They allow for the slow and continuous circulation of air in the wine cabinet and as a result the temperature and humidity levels are consistent.
• The last row of shelves in the wine cabinet is for storing bottles of special size and forms.

The exclusive holing system of our wine racks is patented and cannot be found in any other refrigerated wine cabinet.

* COLOURS:

Our wine cabinets have four main finishes:

• Matured oak (dark brown)
• Cherry (medium brown)
• Walnut (light brown)
• Mahogany (reddish brown)

If you would like another colour, send us a sample of the colour you desire so that we can give the wine cabinet this colour before varnishing.

finished in white colour, dark brown colour, black satin ...
Wenge colour	Rosewood colour

In all cases, unless another wood should be requested, the wood used for the wine cabinet is oak.

* WINE CABINET CUSTOMIZATION:

Any motif, emblem …. will be handcarved on the cabinet's solid oak door(s).
