VIBRATION CONTROL
Wine does not like to be disturbed. It especially dreads vibrations. This is why your wine cellars’ compressor is
mounted on special shock absorbers called "silent blocks". Likewise, the inside tank is insulated from the body by a
thick layer of polyurethane foam which has the added benefit of also absorbing vibrations. Depending on the model,
the wine bottle shelves are made of solid wood and absorb vibrations far better than metal. On some models, the
wine bottle shelves supports are also equipped with rubber pads to further absorb any vibrations.
AERATION/ ODOR CONTROL
Your Climadiff wine cellar is equipped with a permanent air refreshing system filtered by an activated charcoal filter.
It is recommended to replace this filter once a year (may be ordered from a dealer). For replacement instruction, refer
to the "maintenance” chapter and to the wine cellar diagram to see where the filter is located.
RELATIVE HUMIDITY
Average internal humidity is approximately 60% (±10%). This is the average relative humidity range recommended to
keep the cork of your bottles sufficiently moist to maintain the flexibility and elasticity required to keep it hermetic to
liquids, while still letting your wine breathe. Except in extreme ambient conditions, the humidity level should be self
maintaining. Should there be a humidity deficit; an “add-water” symbol will appear on units with a display. In other
units, moistened lava rocks may be employed to control and moderate internal humidity – the condition should be
checked periodically.
U.V. EXPOSURE
Warning: Ultra-Violet light accelerates the oxidation-reduction process and therefore the premature aging of wine.
Always protect your investment by minimizing the exposure to these harmful conditions.
SOLID DOOR (OPTION)
Your Climadiff wine cellar can be equipped with a solid door; providing 100% protection from light exposure.
GLASS WINDOW DOOR (OPTION)
Windowed door options feature a high UV protection to filter ultra violet rays. Units with the LED soft illumination
have an insignificant emission for the time in use (automatic shut-off’s available on some models). Protection from
direct sunlight is essential when choosing a location for your glass-door cellar.
