Dometic Macave E Serie Dual Temp Zone E16FG (Glass Door)

EFFECTIVE FRONT VENTILATION SYSTEM

All Dometic wine refrigerators are fitted in the factory with an effective front ventilation system. The warm air coming from the compressor is flowing directly to the front ventilation grill where it's released outside – a unqiue benefit for built-in use.

AN IDEAL CLIMATE FOR FINE WINES

Quality wine storage needs a well-balanced, stable humidity level. Values between 60 and 85 percent are considered ideal. If humidity levels are significantly lower, moisture evaporates through the cork. The cork dries out, becomes permeable and can no longer protect the wine from oxygen penetration. If humidity levels are too high, there is a risk that mold will form on the cork. If you want to store your wine for a longer period of time, be careful to provide an odorless environment and adequate ventilation. Gases and odors enter into the interior of a wine bottle through pores in the cork and can negatively impact the taste and bouquet of the wine. Dometic wine refrigerators provide perfect climatic conditions for wine storage and ageing. The high-end wine cabinets in the Design Range come standard with an active carbon filter for odor prevention and a water tank for maintaining a stable humidity level. Models lacking these features can be upgraded, if required.

UV FILTER KEEPS HEAT AND SUNLIGHT OUT

It’s no coincidence that wines are almost always filled in tinted glass bottles: wines are extremely sensitive to light. UV rays significantly influence the ageing process of a wine. They lead to chemical reactions that result in a loss of aroma. Just a few weeks spent in a brightly lit room negatively impacts the taste as well as the bouquet of what was once a fine wine. Even more damaging than artificial light is direct sunlight, which also generates heat. This explains why all glass door wine refrigerators from Dometic are fitted with high-insulation, multi-layer special doors coated with a UV filter for maximum protection. To enhance the insulating effect, Argon gas is injected between the door's glass layers. Moreover, Dometic exclusively uses LED lights for its wine cabinets, because they generate the lowest possible level of heat.

SMART TEMPERATURE CONTROL

It's rare for hotels, restaurants and private households to have the privilege of owning a traditional vaulted wine cellar. Fortunately, the climatic conditions can be recreated with the help of advanced technology. Dometic wine refrigerators are using a special Heat and Cool function to quickly achieve and reliably maintain the ideal storage temperature. Smart electronics adjust according to the target temperature and ambient air temperature by automatically warming or cooling the air.

TWO TEMPERATURE ZONES

Most wine refrigerators in the Dometic Design Range feature two separate temperature zones, which can be set to any temperature between +5 °C and +22 °C – allowing one zone for red wine and the other for white. Optionally, one of the zones can be programmed for storage of chilled beverages. In each case the preset temperature is accurately maintained. Blue LEDs on the touchpad control panel indicate the current values.

ENJOY YOUR WINE AT ITS VERY BEST
