Wine Cabinets
Long term wine storage requires that wines are cellared at 12 - 13 degrees Celsius whereas storing wines in ready to serve conditions requires temperatures of 17 degrees for red wines and 7 degrees for white wines and champagne. The superior quality and design of the versatile Transtherm range of wine cooler cabinets and wine chillers provide ideal environmental conditions for both requirements. Contact us for all your wine cooler requirements.

Why Choose Transtherm wine cabinets?
Made in France by the company which pioneered the concept of the wine storage cabinet more than 25 years ago, to become world leader in their field today, the pursuit of excellence in design and manufacture has resulted in the ultimate home for your fine wines - a Transtherm. TemperatureTranstherm cabinets replicate those ideal conditions found in a traditional wine cellar - steady 12 or 13 degrees Celsius with optimum humidity, to ensure the perfect environment for your wines to mature and stay in tip-top condition. Equipped with both heating and cooling functions, the Transtherm can function year-round in any weatherproof environment from 0 - 35 degrees Celsius. HygrometryThe thermal pump system, unique to Transtherm and incorporated into the design of the cabinets, ensures optimum humidity levels and air circulation throughout the cabinet to prevent corks from drying out and wine being spoiled. No moving parts, no fan to rapidly dry-out corks, no filters to replace, simply great design. Lighting - Temperature warning alarm - Easy-glide sliding shelvesAll standard in Prestige range. Build Quality4.5 cm thick shock-resistant, high density insulation provides optimum insulation to maintain perfect cellar conditions. Slow and balanced compressors mounted on rubber shocks eliminate vibration and reduce noise levels to a whisper. Probably the quietest cabinet on the market. Robust design to accommodate up to 267 bottles per cabinet. Attractive, sturdy solid beech wood shelving. State of the art control panel incorporating temperature setting and display. Door handle inset along the entire length of the door to add an aesthetically appealing contemporary look. Eco FriendlyThe large single temperature model ErmitageTM consumes 0.8 KWh/24 hours. Competitively PricedTranstherm is without question the most competitively priced quality wine storage cabinet on the market. |

Transtherm wine cabinet Technology
|
The technology used by TRANSTHERM puts forward the know-how of the professionals to bring together the five criteria required for optimal wine preservation: reinforced insulation, automatic temperature control, adapted humidity, natural ventilation and absence of vibration. Reinforced insulationThe walls of our cabinets are made of three successive thermal barriers. The internal walls are made of strong and odourless insulating shock resistant polystyrene, which absorb any vibration from the compressor. The robust and aesthetically decorative exterior walls are reinforced at the corners by insulating sections. The 4.5 cm thick high density expanded foam which is injected, ensures optimal insulation. The TRANSTHERM cabinets thus have a rigidity adapted to wine bottle storage and thermal stability worthy of that of the best natural cellars. Automatic temperature controlWhen the ambient temperature rises above the ideal wine preservation temperature, a cold circuit, driven by a very slow cycle compressor mounted on silent-blocks, comes into action. The cold circuit coil, made of aluminium, is within the aluminium back wall of the cabinet, for a better temperature distribution. In case of a drop of temperature, an electrical resistance, which is also within the back wall, will come into action and automatically increase the temperature. Adapted humidityBottle corks need specific hygrometric conditions in order not to dry out. The thermal pump (TRANSTHERM exclusivity) allows hot humid air to be obtained automatically. Natural condensation on the back wall records a hygrometric value between 55 and 80%. Natural ventilationBottle corks need specific hygrometric conditions in order not to dry out. The thermal pump (TRANSTHERM exclusivity) allows hot humid air to be obtained automatically. Natural condensation on the back wall records a hygrometric value between 55 and 80%. Absence of vibrationIn order to avoid the mould phenomenon, which would generate bad odours and risk deteriorating the corks, TRANSTHERM cabinets have natural permanent ventilation, based on the same principal as the thermal pump. Wine cabinetsThe technical specificities used endow TRANSTHERM wine cabinets with perfect wine preservation conditions, following the example of natural cellars. Your wine will improve for your greatest pleasure and that of your guests.The quality of the material, the display ergonomics and the contemporary design, make TRANSTHERM wine cabinets the ideal solution for safeguarding your precious bottles. Thermal regulationTRANSTHERM cabinets are equipped with a temperature regulation system which uses liquid bulb thermostats, specifically designed for this purpose. The sensitivity and precision of these thermostats operate either the cold or hot circuit at the right moment, and as quickly as possible, in order to maintain, with an external temperature between 0 and 35°C (32 to 95°F), a maximum temperature variation of 1.5°C inside the wine cabinet. All TRANSTHERM cabinets are equipped with a temperature setting and control panel. The transtherm cabinets are equipped with a control panel with liquid crystal temperature display.

The thermal pump process,Transtherm exclusivity,which by heating the condensed water,allows the introduction of humid air within the cabinet and considerably increase the hygrometry (values between 55 and 80%).This principal gives the cabinet natural ventilation and constant air circulation.  |

Transtherm Shelving
Prestige Range - Shelving Options |
||
All cabinets in the Prestige range are crafted from solid beech wood for strength and durability. Each model can be equipped either with all sliding shelves (type 'C' shelving) from top to bottom for easy access to all bottles within the cabinet or with a mixture of both storage shelves and sliding shelves (type 'M' shelving) to maximise the total bottle capacity of the cabinet. The precise number of each type of shelf depends on the size of cabinet. |
Sliding shelf 12 bottles |
Storage shelf up to 77 bottles |
 Display shelf up to 34 bottles |
||

Elegance Range - Shelving Options
The shelf used in the Elegance range is made from attractive solid beech wood. The same shelf can be used either as a sliding shelf for quick and easy access to all bottles, or as a storage shelf with bottles stacked layer upon layer to maximise storage capacity. Please note that the only means of accessing those bottles on the lower layers is by first removing the layers above. Note that Elegance shelf stores 13 bottles when being used as a sliding shelf. |

Transtherm Combinations
Designed to suit any requirements, all Transtherm models can be combined by using two models with opposing hinges. In the large size Ermitage, Castel and Reserve models can be combined, in the medium size Manoir, Cottage and Cellier and in the small size models Mas1T and MasMT. For example:- Two Ermitage models with opposing hinges, one with type 'C' shelving (all sliding shelves), the other with type 'M' shelving (3 storage + 3 sliding shelves), total capacity 402 bottles. Ermitage 'M' combined with Castel 'C' gives a total capacity of 401 bottles including the 11 reds at ready to serve temperature and up to 17 whites/champagnes at ready to serve temperature in the serving compartments of the Castel. Cabinets can be combined with any of the shelving, colour or glass door/solid door options. Please call or email should you require further assistance. |
