Wine Cellar Cooling Units: What Experts in Miami Have to Offer 

Selecting a wine cellar builder can be a difficult task. Finding the right craftsman with a flair for your style and budget can be challenging. The contractor must not only have the technical skills to install wine racking systems, wine cooling units, wine cellar doors, and lighting but also should have the ability to build a wine cellar according to the technical requirements.  

Understanding the need for a vapor barrier, proper wine cellar insulation, exterior grade doors, cooling options, and sealing the complete enclosure is paramount to a well-built wine room. A contractor should have experience of the above, with several successful projects in their portfolio. In addition, the contractor should know how the wine cellar cooling unit interacts with the environment.

You should hire a company with extensive knowledge and experience in wine cellar refrigeration. They should be able to determine which of the following types of wine cooling units is ideal for each client:  

Through the Wall or Self-Contained Systems – This wine cellar cooling unit is placed between the wall studs. An HVAC technician is not required for the installation. However, you will need an exhaust room for proper dissipation of the heat coming from the wine cellar refrigeration system 

Our CWC Miami FL team also utilizes wine cellar cooling systems from Wine Guardian.  

Ducted Wine Cellar Cooling Units – The main advantage of the ducted wine cooling system is that there is no visible equipment inside your wine room because the evaporator and condenser are installed outdoors. The installation requires ductwork to allow the cold air to be ducted to and from the cellar.  

Look at the wine cellar cooling systems from CellarPro that our CWC Miami FL team also uses.  

Ductless Split Systems – Master builders in Miami recommend the ductless split wine cellar cooling unit to wine collectors who do not want noise from their climate control system.  

Planning and forethought for proper installation and determining supply and return register placement in walls and ceilings are essential. The bottom line is that a good contractor should have a working knowledge of proper wine room airflow and the ability to expertly blend your design elements with the functions of a wine room cooling unit. At Custom Wine Cellars Miami FL, we are an expert in designing wine rooms and providing HVAC services.

How We Determine the Right Size of Wine Cellar Cooling Unit for Each Project 

At Custom Wine Cellars Miami, we perform a standard procedure: heat load calculation. Through this process, we can identify the capacity and size of the wine cellar refrigeration system that fits your residential or commercial wine cellar in Miami.  

Let us help you determine the correct unit and size by doing a heat load calculation, while square footage is an essential guide for determining the size. It does not capture all the heat factors for a cellar, such as these: 


We consider the following factors in doing the heat load calculation: 

  • Windows, glass walls, and lighting – The amount of glass used on the walls or windows and the lighting in your wine cellar may necessitate a unit with higher cooling capacity.   
  • Traffic – If your wine cellar gets high traffic – thus frequently allowing outside air into the cellar (such as in commercial cellars) – you will need a higher capacity unit than the square footage would suggest.   
  • Bottle rotation – If you rotate the bottles in your cellar often, your heat load will increase, increasing the need for a higher capacity unit. (Initially, most cellars take longer to cool to the desired temperature since all bottles in the wine cellar must be cooled simultaneously).   
  • Climate – Areas with high ambient temperatures or cellars with poor insulation may require higher capacity units.   



How High-Grade Wine Cellar Cooling Units Installed by Miami HVAC Specialists Can Regulate the Humidity Levels

Humidity is a critical yet often overlooked feature in wine cellar design. The ideal wine cellar humidity level is between 60 to 70 percent. If the humidity falls outside the normal range, wine quality may be affected in several ways.   

When the humidity exceeds 70%, it will likely cause mold and degradation of the labels and glue. When the humidity is below 50%, corks will begin to dry out, resulting in loss of liquid in the bottles and possible degradation of the wine.   

Problems resulting from humidity issues can be solved or avoided with the proper planning. The first step should be installing a vapor barrier around the entire room. A wine cellar refrigeration unit alone cannot add moisture or humidify cellar air. It needs a humidifier if you live in a drier climate. 

 

Wine cellars with spray foam insulation are one of the most effective ways to create an optimal wine cellar cooling environment.
