Freestanding wine coolers are a wonderful option if you are looking for an immediate and effortless solution to store your collection of wine. You may not have any cabinet space in your kitchen to accommodate a built-in wine cooler and will, therefore, benefit from a freestanding model that will allow you to position it in an alternative location. The beauty of a freestanding wine cooler is that it's low-maintenance, relatively cheaper than built-in models, and very versatile in terms of where it can be installed.
Freestanding wine fridges are particularly useful when you need a large bottle capacity, as they aren't restricted by cabinet space so that you can purchase a large one. They can be used to store all types of wine (red wine, white wine, rose wine, and sparkling wine) as dual zone coolers are available, which allow different temperature control zones within the same fridge for storage and serving. The energy rating of freestanding fridges varies by the size of the unit and the brand, so see the product page for more information. They are also choices in both black and stainless steel finish.
Freestanding wine fridges offer a range of features which provide the most idyllic conditions for valuable wine collections. Here are some of the features you can expect to find in a freestanding wine cooler. Make sure to check the specific freestanding model to confirm which features are included:
A freestanding wine cooler is designed to stand up independently and should not be built into any form of cabinet or cupboard.They require ventilation at all times. It's highly recommended that there is a minimum gap of 5-10cm around the side and rear of the unit to any other surface. It's important to note freestanding wine cooler units should not be installed under a countertop.
As freestanding wine coolers dissipate heat from all of their external surfaces its important that adequate ventilation is present to allow for heat to escape. Its important that freestanding models are not fit into cabinetry or place under work tops as heat can get trapped, overheating the wine cooler and potentially causing damage to its functions.
The best place to install a freestanding unit is in a place with plenty of ventilation.
