• A Heads-Up About UPS ShippingSome of our Avanti and Danby products are shipped UPS. The Checkout Screen states that we may add an amount, in addition to the shipping cost, to our charges. THIS IS NOT THE CASE. We add nothing. The message appears at the insistence of UPS and does not apply to our shipping.

• What is a cooling zone? A cooling zone is a compartment in a wine cooler that has its temperature by a thermostat. In the single zone wine cooler the air is cooled by a cooling device (compressor or thermoelectric). Air circulation can be by convection or by a fan. Multi-zone wine coolers, not surprisingly, have two or more separate spaces. Some wine coolers create the space by putting a divider in the cooler. In some cases the cooling of the individual spaces is done by a single cooling unit with one or more fans that move air into the spaces. Usually, each space will have a separate thermostat. In other cases the air movement creates natural differences in space temperatures using a single thermostat. In our experience, the temperature of the spaces within the units of this last design will differ by about 10º. The idea of it all is to keep your white and red wines at a temperatures best suited to them. Some wine coolers include one cooling unit per space. The Vinotemp VT-48TEDS-2Z is a 2-zone wine cooler with French doors. Each side of this cooler has its own cooling unit. The Vinotemp Rioja comes in a single zone and two multi-zone versions. The VT-RIOJA1 is a single zone version, the VT-RIOJA2 is a 2-zone version and the VT-RIOJA4 is a 4-zone version. The 2-zone model is, essentially, two single zone units stacked - 2 cooling units. The 4-zone unit can be thought of as two 2-zone side-by-side - 4 cooling units. The most important consideration in the selection of a wine cooler having one or more zones is that they all do the job of providing one, two or more cooled areas.
