(469) 638-3215Wine cooler too warm, temperature swinging, or frost on the back wall? ALAS Appliance Repair fixes built-in and freestanding wine refrigerators and beverage centers across Colleyville, from the Village at Colleyville and the SH 26 corridor to Montclair Parc, Ross Downs Estates and Whittier Heights.
Business Profile

Wine storage in Colleyville ranges from a single built-in cooler under a bar counter to full-height wine columns beside a matching refrigerator column. Listings in Ross Downs Estates and Whittier Heights mention built-in wine coolers alongside bar beverage centers, and estate kitchens in Montclair Parc often go further. Whatever the size, the cooler depends on a front grille to breathe, and a grille blocked by trim, a rug or a toe kick panel shortens the life of the compressor and fans.
Columns and dual-zone units use separate sensors and fans for each zone, so a single warm zone is usually a component issue rather than the whole system. Humidity matters too: a cooler that runs too dry can shrink corks, while one that drips inside may have a blocked drain. Shield the cooler from sun through patio doors, and check the gasket by shutting a dollar bill in the door; it should resist a tug. Compressor and refrigerant work belongs with a technician, especially in a unit trimmed into custom cabinetry.
Our Plano-based technicians cover Colleyville from the Village at Colleyville and the Colleyville Boulevard, Glade Road and Hall-Johnson Road corridors to Montclair Parc, Ross Downs Estates, Highland Meadows, Whittier Heights and the Reserve at Colleyville.

Paired columns usually have separate refrigeration systems, so one can fail while the other runs normally. A warm wine column often points to a condenser fan, an evaporator fan, a sensor or a dirty condenser grille. Clean the grille, confirm the setting and record the actual temperature for a day. If it keeps drifting, the column needs a diagnosis of its own.
Most wine coolers drain defrost water through a small tube to a pan near the compressor. If that tube clogs, water collects inside the cabinet. Remove bottles from the lowest shelf, look for the drain opening at the back and clear it gently with warm water. If water returns quickly or ice forms on the back wall, the defrost cycle or a fan may be at fault.
Yes. Bar and game room coolers in Colleyville homes are often built under counters with little space for air, and upstairs rooms can run warm in summer. We check airflow, fans, sensors, door seals and the sealed system together. Tell us whether the unit is single or dual zone and how it is installed, so we can plan for access.
