Common WINE COOLER
Problems We Fix

Based on your wine cooler's technology, it uses either a compressor or a thermoelectric system to cool. Our wine cooler service team of trained and licensed technicians will diagnose and fix all your wine cooler problems. These are the most common wine fridge repair issues we fix.

Condenser fan problem

The condenser is the heat exchanger of the compressor-type wine cooler. A faulty condenser may lead to overheating of the wine chiller system. The heat eventually reaches the cooler cabinet and its content. If the condenser fan is not running, first ensure that it is free to spin. Check for dust and debris buildup on the condenser fan blades. If that does not solve the problem, you may call wine fridge repair services.

Broken evaporator

The evaporator works with the condenser to lower the temperature in the chiller. If the evaporator fails, the refrigerant will not pick any heat even if the compressor runs continuously. The evaporator may fail due to dust build-up or a broken fan. Sometimes there is ice around the evaporator; wait for it to melt before plugging in the cooler. If this does not solve the problem, you need to call the wine cooler service in your area.

Defective thermostat

Thermostat replacement is a complicated procedure that requires a wine cooler repair professional. Book a wine chiller repair service online to replace a defective thermostat. The thermostat allows you to set and control the inside temperature of the wine cooler. It also supplies power to the cooling system, and if defective, it causes irregular temperatures inside the cooler.

Compressor problems

The compressor is an essential part of the wine cooling process, it circulates the refrigerant to enable heat dissipation. Sometimes, the compressor may not receive enough power or receives excess power, causing overheating. A faulty capacitor, which starts the compressor, will cause the compressor not to come on. Wine cooler compressor repair or replacement is complicated, so you will need to contact a wine fridge repair service in your area.

Improper room Temperature

Environmental temperatures affect the functionality of a thermoelectric cooler. The ideal temperature for effective cooling is 50 to 80 degrees, and if it is hotter, the thermoelectric cooler will not be effective. Since this is not a technical issue, you can quickly solve the wine cooler repair issue by turning up the AC or moving the cooler into a room with a lower temperature.

Defective fan

A thermoelectric wine cooler has a condenser fan to cool hot air to keep the inside cool. Accumulation of excess dirt and debris or broken fan blades may lower the fan's efficiency, leading to a warmer internal environment. Contact our wine refrigerator repair service to fix the broken fan.

Poor ventilation

Because of how it operates, a thermoelectric cooler needs proper ventilation to maintain cool temps. Ensure adequate ventilation by placing your cooler away from the wall and other obstacles. Place your cooler away from heat-generating appliances such as microwaves and ovens. Lastly, avoid placing other items on the cooler.
