Create a Custom Cooling System for Your Unique Wine Storage Needs

Had your wine storage space built, but still can’t seem to find the right cooling unit suitable for it? This is a common problem among wine collectors. Since wine rooms vary in many factors, such as size, location, and capacity, the appropriate HVAC equipment for each structure varies as well. The wine cabinets, for example, of a client in Laguna Beach had very unique needs. It required a refrigeration system that would allow the use of extra small ducting. The experts from Arctic Metalworks Inc. were able to install a customized cooling system setup that would meet his cabinet’s distinctive needs.

A client in Laguna Beach, Orange County, California sought the help of Arctic Metalworks Inc. He needed a team of HVAC technicians to install a refrigeration system for the four custom wine cabinets in his home.

The HVAC specialists at Arctic Metalworks Inc. have a comprehensive understanding of the storage needs of wine. Their wide experience with installing many different types of refrigeration systems has also helped them meet the unique needs of every wine storage structure they get to work on. Their recent project, for example, was in a luxury home in Laguna Beach in Orange County, California. The client had four wine cabinets that had distinctive storage requirements, and the technicians from Arctic had to install a system that could effectively provide cooling to these cabinets.

The wine cabinets in this project were sealed by glass doors. The area inside each cabinet was very small, and there was little space to vent air in and out the structure. Standard-sized ducting would not fit inside the cabinets. The challenge for the HVAC experts from Arctic was to set up a refrigeration system that would allow them to use special-sized – smaller than the usual – ducting.

The team of HVAC technicians from Arctic Metalworks Inc. installed a Unico High Pressure cooling unit for the Laguna Beach wine cabinets. This type of refrigeration system allowed them to use ducting that was smaller than the standard size.

Setting Up a Ducted Split Type Cooling System

The cooling equipment that was chosen for this project was a ducted split type system. In this kind of setup, the refrigeration unit was installed in a separate mechanical room.

Ducts were used to carry cool air from the HVAC unit into the cabinets. Another set of ducts vented the warm air out from the storage space. This was the most ideal configuration, considering the limited area inside the cabinets for installing equipment.

Special-Sized Ducts that were Smaller than Standard

Two-inch ducts were used for the Unico High Pressure cooling system. A total of eight ducts were set up. For each cabinet, two ducts were allocated – one was a supply and the other was a return. Supply ducts were the ones that carried coolness into the wine cabinets. The return ducts brought warm air out of the storage space and into a separate room.

There were four cabinets, and each one had two ducts allocated. A total of eight ducts were installed. Each pair of ducting had a supply and a return. The supply ducts brought cool air in, while the return ducts vented warm air out.

The Unico cooling equipment uses a high pressure forced air system, which is necessary to push cool air through the extra thin ducting.

The ducts used in this project were two-inches in size, which is smaller than the standard. The smaller-than-usual ducts were a customized part of the refrigeration system. The customization was necessary to meet the client’s distinctive storage needs.

Refrigeration System Accessories Installed

A few additional features were included in the setup of the wine cabinet refrigeration system. A thermostat was installed on the wall and set to 55 degrees Fahrenheit.

A thermostat and a remote sensor were installed as an additional accessory for the refrigeration system. These added features help maintain the temperature and humidity in the wine cabinets at the ideal levels.

A remote sensor was installed in the wine cabinets too. This accessory was included to make sure that the temperature is maintained at the ideal levels with minimal to no fluctuation.
