Do You Offer Removal and Disposal of Old Wine Coolers?

Damaged Delivery

We ask that you thoroughly inspect all items at the point of delivery. We advise you not to accept delivery of any damaged items. If you discover that an item has been damaged, please reject the delivery and provide the delivery driver with notice that your are rejecting the delivery due to damage. Please also send any clear photos of the damage to sales@expertwinestorage.co.uk and call us immediatley for further assistance.

Signing For The Delivery

It's very important to check all items for damage at the point of delivery before signing for and accepting them. Unfortunatley, we will not be able to accept any claims for damaged items if you have signed the delivery paperwork and accepted the goods.

The following steps can help you when you receive delivery:

•  Please take the item out of its packaging (do not only inspect the packaging)
•  Inspect goods carefully (all the sides, corners and doors if applicable)
•  If there is no damage, accept and sign for the delivery
•  If there is damage do not accept or sign (notify the delivery team and communicate that the reason for rejection as item damaged)

Once goods are signed for we cannot be held responsible for any damages and the customer is required to prove to us the damage was there before delivery. 

Please make sure that anyone who might accept a delivery for you understands this. Please also ensure the person signing for goods on your behalf is over 18 and if its your 'acceptor' you are obliged to make sure they know they have to inspect the goods properly before signing.

Regarding Re-delivery

If there is no one at the delivery address to receive the goods, and if you have not made an agreement that the goods can be placed at the address, the coruier will take the goods back and try delivery to complete a re-delivery. If you refuse reception in order to have the order delivered at another time without an agreement with Expert Wine Storage on this, this is also considered a redelivery. The price for a re-delivery is £100 + VAT.

Cancellations & Refunds

Any orders cancelled after 48 hours of placing the order may be subject to additional fees. If your order has been dispatched, you (the buyer) will be responsible for any costs associated with returning the item. Any refunds can only be issued to the same payment method which was used to place the order.

 Installation Of Your Wine Cooler

We've selected the finest wine fridges available in the UK but we often get asked about the different installation requirments for freestanding, built in and integrated wine coolers and wine cabinets. Take a look below at our brief guides and get in touch if you have any questions - we'll be very happy to help!

Freestanding wine cooler

A freestanding wine cooler is designed to stand independently and should not be built in to any form of cabinet or cupboard. Freestanding wine fridges require ventilation at all times. It's highly recommended that there is a minimum gap of 3-5 inches from the side and rear of the unit to any other surface. Freestanding wine cooler units should not be installed under a countertop (under counter), built in to cabinetry or covered over the top in any way as this can cause over heating and negates the manufacturer warranty. Find out more about Freestanding Wine Cooler Installation.

Integrated wine cooler

Integrated wine fridges are similar to built-in wine coolers but are designed to slot in perfectly into cupboards to create a floating, seamless look. In comparison to a built-in unit, integrated wine coolers sit completely flush with your cabinetry.

Built-in/undercounter wine cooler

In contrast to a freestanding wine cooler, a built in wine cooler is designed to be fitted into a cupboard, cabinet or under counter. This being said a built in unit can also be used as a free-standing wine cooler. A built-in wine cooler has a ventilation grill which allows cool air to flow into the unit which maintains it's cooling function. Find out more about built in wine cooler installation.

Noise

Is a wine cooler noisy?

The majority of wine coolers which we stock produce a noise level of approximately 35-45 decibels (dB). When compared to other common household electrical appliances, it's useful to note, a standard dishwasher creates around 45-50 dB and a modern refrigerator generates approximately 35 dB.

The reason a modern wine cooler produces noise is for much the same reasons as a standard kitchen refrigerator. Most wine coolers are designed with a compressor, an array of fans (to consistently circulate the cool air) and refrigerant. The minor difference between a wine cooler and a standard refrigerator is that the wine cooler has the need to hold a steady, consistent temperature at all times to keep your wine perfectly chilled.

How do I reduce the noise of my wine cooler?

There are a number of ways you can mitigate and reduce the noise produced by your wine cooler:

•  Carpets, rugs, curtains and furniture can all help to absorb the sound created by your wine cooler
•  Consider using sound-absorbing materials during any home improvement work
  When it comes to the installation of your wine cooler, make sure the unit is perfectly level using a spirit level. Sound, vibration and noise absorbing materials can also be placed under your wine cooling unit.
•  Always ensure there is sufficient air circulating around the product, please see our explanations above regarding the different types of wine coolers for more information.
