Viking DUWC144 Glass Cellar Service
The DUWC144 is a retired Designer 24-inch glass door wine cellar. Wine does best at a steady temperature and with little vibration, so a cellar that hums, shakes or drifts is working against its purpose. The glass door shows the collection, but it also lets heat in, which makes the seal important.
We service a DUWC144 by measuring the temperature over time, then testing the fan, the condenser and the door seal. We look for sources of vibration, including loose mounts, tubing touching the cabinet and a fan blade out of balance. A written price comes before any retired part is ordered, and a 30-day workmanship warranty covers the repair. The bottle shelves are checked for rattles, since glass on wire can buzz against a vibrating cabinet.
A steady cellar is best, and constant vibration is something collectors prefer to avoid. We secure mounts, tubing and fans so the cabinet runs smoothly and quietly.
The door seal, the fan, the condenser and the thermostat. Drift usually comes from one of them losing efficiency, and we find which by measuring.
Humid air enters past a worn gasket and condenses on the cold glass. We test the seal around the whole door and realign the door if needed, then recheck for fog after the cellar has run.
