PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The front door is fully glazed UV-resistant, gas-filled, with low energy panes equipped and the two cooling zones offer a very wide range of temperatures with the white section offering temperatures between 5 - 16°C and the red section between 9 - 20°C. These temperature ranges cater for any wine you may wish to serve from Icewine to Beaujolais Nouveau to the finest Burgundies, Barolos and Bordeaux reds.
This wide range of temperature options also means part of the fridge can be used for long term storage and the other for wine service (or both for either). This wine fridge also has an active carbon filter for longer term storage possibilities. Together with a lock and audible temperature change alarms your wine collection is as safe and cool as it can be!
The ability to purchase this wine cooler both with and without handle allows multiple options for housing the unit as well as offering a beautiful symmetry to your kitchen/restaurant. At just 35 decibels the wine fridge is also quiet and with an A efficiency rating will only cost around £25 a year to run.
This wine fridge is ideal for any temperature room but especially useful if your wine fridge storage area can get cold at night or in winter as it has a winter heating function to ensure there are no fluctuations in the temperature your bottles are stored at day or night.
