Know the home, know the fault
Properties in this settlement on the northern edge of Dartmoor range from older buildings dating back to when the area grew on the medieval wool trade, to 21st-century housing developments on the eastern edge. Additional homes are also being built in the vicinity. In older properties, a wine cooler might be fitted into a freestanding unit or a traditional kitchen layout, while newer builds tend to integrate them under counters alongside other modern appliances. Wherever a chiller is situated, it requires adequate ventilation to function correctly. Without enough space to expel heat, the internal components are put under unnecessary strain. When a wine cooler fails to hold its set temperature, the issue is sometimes poor airflow around the cabinet, which forces the compressor to work harder. Dual-zone models can develop faults where one section maintains the correct climate while the other zone fails. This points to a problem with the internal fans or the control board directing the cooling between the compartments. Condensation and misting on the glass door usually indicate a degraded door seal letting ambient air inside. Internal fan failures also prevent cold air from circulating evenly, leading to warm spots among the bottles. We repair electric ovens, washing machines, dishwashers and other white goods, but we do not work on gas appliances.

Call 01752 922765Condensation and misting inside the cabinet or on the glass door usually happen when warm room air enters the cooler. This is most likely caused by a damaged or worn door seal. If the seal is intact, the internal ventilation fan might be failing, which stops air from circulating properly and allows moisture to build up.
When a dual-zone model has one zone failing while the other holds its temperature, the compressor is still working. The fault is typically isolated to the components managing that specific compartment. A broken circulation fan, a faulty temperature sensor, or a malfunctioning control board can prevent cold air from being directed to the affected zone.
A cooler failing to hold the set temperature can be caused by a blocked condenser, a failing compressor, or a faulty thermostat. Built-in models also need sufficient airflow around the back and sides to expel heat. If the ventilation is restricted, the appliance will struggle to cool down, regardless of what temperature you have set.
