It’s really important to store wine at the right temperature to preserve its quality. Naturally, red wines tend to need to be kept at a warmer overall level than their white wine counterparts.
So when buying a wine cooling refrigerator, it’s a good idea to opt for what’s called a “dual zone” unit. For example, there’s the Kalorik wcl 20629. Dual zone simply refers to the fact that these cooling units have 2 regions which maintain independent and differing temperatures. By doing so, it allows for a broader range of wines to be preserved within the same refrigerator.
On the Kalorik eighteen-bottle wine cooler, the different temperatures are controlled digitally for accuracy. The higher region is built to house white wines, and has a temperature control that ranges from 44 all the way up to 54 degrees Fahrenheit. Down below, the temperature settings are higher because it’s meant for bottles of red instead.
The interior lighting can also affect the internal temperature of a wine refrigerator too. Unfortunately the lights in some wine refrigerators can warm up quite a lot, causing “hot spots” to develop within the unit.
But this won’t happen with the wcl 20629. That’s because it uses very soft and low power LED lights that gently illuminate without affecting the internal temperature. In fact, the entire wine cooler is very energy efficient, and needs the same power as a seventy-five watt light bulb to function.
A third key factor is insulation. There’s obviously a strong risk of air escaping through the door. However, the Kalorik 18-bottle wine cooler has been designed with this in mind. It uses both double-paned and reinforced tempered glass to stay as well insulated as possible.
On top of al this, this thermoelectric wine cooler has a cleverly positioned fan on the rear of the unit to help keep the internal environment steady and evenly distributed.
When all these factors are combined, it’s easy to see how the Kalorik WCL 20629 works so well in keeping wines at their ideal temperature. And since it’s fitted with vibration dampening, it operates without making much noise at all, which is even better.
