The humidity level is too low
The temperature in the cellar is not consistent
The cellar's compressor runs continuously
Vibration
The cellar makes a lot of noise
There are unpleasant smells in the cellar
The bottle shelves sag when loaded
There is water in the bottom of the cellar
Humidity is regulated by the principle of thermodynamics.
During a cooling period, a frost forms (cold air dries the air),
humidity will fall to 40%. During a heating period, the frost
melts and humidity may reach 70%.
Taking an average of these two values, we obtain an average
humidity of 55%. It is essential to calculate an average value
over several cycles and not from a single reading.
To increase the humidity in the cellar, there are two
alternatives:
- Place a jar of water in the upper part of the cellar.
- Dampen the lava rocks.
- Raise the temperature slightly inside the cellar.
3. The actual temperature to take into account is the
temperature in the bottle. The temporary variations
which you observe correspond to the compressor's
operating cycles.
It is through this principle of a series of small variations in the
air inside your wine cellar that a suitable average temperature
is obtained, ensuring the best conditions for maturing your
wine.
4. If the temperature noted in your wine cellar is
different from that usually seen and it does not
change continuously (over several hours and except
when located in a non-heated room with a
temperature of between 10 and 12°C), please contact
your retailer's after-sales service.
If no cold is being produced, call your retailer's after-sales
service.
Check to ensure that the cellar is indeed level and that all the
feet are resting on the ground.
3. The compressor is noisy: check that it is fixed to the
rubber shock absorbers (silent blocks) and whether it
is in contact with another element.
4. Small rattling sounds are heard: they result from the
circulation of gas in the pipes and are part of the
normal operation of your wine cellar.
3. Clean the cellar and ventilate it for several days
4. Replace the charcoal filters,
Check that you are not exceeding the load capacity and that
the shelves are correctly positioned.
This is not detrimental to your wine and is a normal
phenomenon during the first few days of use.
4. Ensure that the two front feet are slightly raised.
5. Ensure that the lava rocks do not obstruct the
condensation water evacuation hole.
6. Ensure that the condensation water evacuation pipe
is not blocked.
