Wine Cooler Repair Austin, TX

Possibly, yes. Your wine cooler doesn't have to be situated in a basement or wine cellar—underground wine cellars are preferable because the wine ages in cool, dark conditions with the right humidity, and your wine cooler appliance supplies those conditions so the cooler itself can be located almost anywhere. That being said, if it has a glass door, you should be wary of how it's positioned in relation to possible sunlight exposure. Make sure it's in a place where a beam of sunlight isn't going to come through the window and cross the glass door of the cooler because that exposes the wine inside to UV rays that break down the chemicals in wine and destroy the flavors. There should also not be constant exposure to fluorescent lighting. Dark or dim are the best lighting conditions to preserve your wine collection.

If you've just had to call an Austin appliance repair technician for wine cooler repair, you're probably interested in ways to avoid another breakdown or malfunction any time soon. The best way to avoid the need for repair services is routine maintenance, and that's the case with any major appliance. The team at Mr. Appliance of Austin offers appliance maintenance services for wine coolers—with a yearly visit, we can get your unit tuned up and correct any issues that could lead to bigger problems down the road.

That being said, there are a few things homeowners can do themselves to help keep their wine cooler well-maintained.

Here are some basic maintenance tips to keep in mind:

• Change Filters: Some wine coolers have a built-in air filtration system that helps to block out any heavy odors that could permeate the cork and spoil your wine. They come with filters that naturally need to be changed from time to time, and staying on top of that task will help keep your wine cooler in good condition.
• Clean Interior: Removing all the bottles and wiping down the interior of the unit from time to time will help avoid any kind of grime build-up or unpleasant odors and also give you an opportunity to notice if there are any potential issues brewing.
• Clean Condenser Coils: Your wine cooler has condenser coils on the back or bottom of the unit that are prone to collecting dust and dirt. The dust ends up insulating the coils and preventing them from doing their job properly so the unit struggles to get down to the right temperature. Clean them gently with a soft cloth or coil brush once or twice per year.
