VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS –
UPRIGHT CABINETS WITH STANDARD CONFIGURATIONS
The hot air generated by the cooling unit is ventilated through the top of our upright wine
cabinets (ie not credenzas.) Consequently, upright wine cabinets must have sufficient
clearance above the cabinets for hot air to dissipate, or else the hot air must be channeled
away from the cooling unit. If the hot air cannot be dissipated or channeled, the cooling
unit will recycle its own hot air, and therefore it will be unable to maintain cold temperatures
inside the wine cabinet and/or will run all the time.
Our wine cabinets have been engineered with SB/0™ Technology so that they can be
placed right up against the wall, as follows:
Freestanding, Open Placement:
Contemporary, Loft and Vault wine cabinets require 18 inches of clearance above
the wine cabinet
European Country and Mission wine cabinets require 12 inches of clearance
above the wine cabinet
The sides always need to be open – ie alcoves, closets or other built-in
installations will not work without our front-vent hood (see Option 2 below).
Limited Clearance - Low Ceiling Height (Option 1):
If you don’t have the required clearance above the wine cabinet, we can
configure the wine cabinet so that the cabinet intakes air from the rear. There is
no additional charge for this option. In this configuration, the wine cabinet willl
need to be placed 3-4” away from the rear wall. The sides need to be open – ie
alcoves, closets or other built-in installations will not work without our front-vent
hood (see Option 2 below).
Please note: minimum clearance of 7 ½ inches above the wine cabinet is
required in order to remove the air filter (ie periodic maintenance) for the cooling
unit.
Limited Clearance – Enclosed Space (Option 2):
If you want to place the wine cabinet flush against the wall, or you want to place
the cabinet in an enclosed space like a closet or alcove, you may purchase our
front-vent hood to place on top of the cabinet. The front vent hood can be used
with all Le Cache wine cabinets that have CellarPro cooling units, as follows:
o
Contemporary, Loft and Vault wine cabinets can use our front-vent hood
either with or without the decorative grill.
