Why hide your wine collection from the viewers? Choose glass wine cellars! This type of wine cellar has been increasing in demand in both residential and commercial settings for many years. At Wine Cellar Designers Group, we love to create wine cellars for a highly visible wine storage and display area. M&M Cellar Cooling Systems and Blue Grouse Wine Cellars are some of our partners in wine cellar design and cooling installation. They have worked on several stunning projects where they had to deal with glass walls and doors. 

Benefits and Proper Construction of Glass Wine Cellars

A Member of the Los Angeles Wine Cellar Designers Group Has Completed a Refrigeration Project for a Glass Wine Cellar  

M&M Cellar Systems, one of our partners in wine cellar cooling, has completed installations of glass wine cellars. By working with trusted, passionate, creative, and knowledgeable builders, they were able to help many clients enjoy their wines for many years.  

M&M Cellar Systems also specializes in HVAC service, repair, and maintenance. They cater to different brands of cooling systems including WhisperKOOL, Wine Guardian, CellarPro, US Cellar Systems, and LRC.  

A Custom Glass Wine Cellar Cooled by an Expert Became the Centerpiece of a Home 

On one of M&M Cellar Systems’ refrigeration projects, the custom glass wine cellar was installed on the main floor of the residential property. They installed a wine cooling system via a discrete duct near the ceiling. Despite the small size of the cellar, they had to consider the amount of glass that would be used in the project. This helped them determine the correct type, size, and capacity of wine cooling system. 

Wine Cellar Features 

The owner wanted a wine cellar design that would maximize the visibility of their collection. To meet their requirements, the designer installed a glass door and walls. The client’s prized wines can be seen from the living area, making guests feel envious of the beautiful wine display.  

The racking style plays a significant role in the overall appeal of the wine cellar. For this particular project, they used wooden wine racks to match the flooring and existing style of the home.   

Our Partner in Designing Glass Wine Cellars in Los Angeles Has Built a Contemporary Glass Wine Cellar Under the Stairs 

We have worked with many top-notch builders in Los Angeles, and Blue Grouse Wine Cellars is one of them. They have created stellar designs for modern homes. They are well trained and have extensive experience in building wine storage facilities, both for residential and commercial applications.   

An Award-Winning Residential Glass Wine Cellar Under the Stairs  

In one of their award-winning projects, they had to transform a tiny space under the stairs into a glass wine cellar. They used glass on the door, which is located at the front, and on the right side of the wall. The completed wine cellar looks like a giant aquarium with wine bottles as the “fish.” The homeowners are pleased with the finished product because it allows them to showcase their prized wines without having to enter the wine room.  

Wine Rack Features 

To complement the glass door and wall, Blue Grouse Wine Cellars installed Millesime wine racks, which are made of metal rods and clear acrylic end blocks. These wine racks store the bottles in a label forward configuration, which allows for ease in locating wines.

Millesime wine racks also offer installation flexibility. They are available in various heights, depths, and widths to suit small to large wine rooms. Moreover, they can be mounted on the wall or ceiling. For the cooling system, they installed the KoolR magnum refrigeration unit. This was the best choice considering the size of the wine room. 

Wine Cellar Insulation:  A Crucial Step in Building Glass Wine Cellars 

Wine requires a storage place with humidity levels that range from 60 to 70 percent. Wine room insulation is a crucial step in building wine cellars because it helps maintain a stable environment. This is the main reason knowledgeable builders use thermally insulated glass.  

Insulating glass has many benefits: 

• Reduces heat transfer through glass panes    
• Protects the wines from UV exposure 
• Keeps energy consumption lower  
• Prevents wine cooling system breakdowns 

At Wine Cellar Designers Group, it is our standard procedure to use tempered glass to prevent condensation and achieve maximum cooling efficiency.   

How Experts Choose the Right Wine Cooling System for Glass Wine Cellars 

Choosing the right cooling unit for your wine cellar requires the help of a company with technical knowledge about proper wine storage and refrigeration. At Wine cellar Designers Group, we make a careful assessment of the client’s needs. We also perform a heat load calculation to help us in choosing the correct refrigeration equipment for every project. 

Factors We Consider When Choosing the Brand, Type, and Size of Wine Cooling System 

• Amount of glass to be used in the wine cellar
