Need help with fridgidor...

[rcsst12]

Well, I have been looking for a way that would combat the Pennsylvania weather. I don't typically use air conditioning all that much during the summer so my house can easily reach 80 degrees. I just need a little help to get my feet wet here.

I am purchasing a Venotemp 16-bottle thermoelectric wine cooler.

Product Dimensions: 19.8 x 20 x 17 inches

1) How many beads do I need to regulate this humi?
2) Do I still need to use cedar strips if I use beads?
3) How many boxes can I fit in this fridgidor (is too little bad?)
4)anything that i need to know?
5) does this unit have a good internal temperature control?
6) If I have the temperature set at 65 degrees F, will the temperature stay the same if the temperature outside of the fridgidor goes up to 80?

Should I get a bigger fridge like a 28-bottle or would this size be fine?

1) How many beads do I need to regulate this humi? - Heartfelt calculator says 3/4lb, but Id go with at least a 1lb, maybe more. Because you will have condensation most likley, the extra beads will be useful.
2) Do I still need to use cedar strips if I use beads? - No. Only if you want. Its just like a cooler.
3) How many boxes can I fit in this fridgidor (is too little bad?) - Not to sure maybe 10 or so?

Thats about all I can answer. Not really sure about the rest of the questions.

4)anything that i need to know?
5) does this unit have a good internal temperature control?
6) If I have the temperature set at 65 degrees F, will the temperature stay the same if the temperature outside of the fridgidor goes up to 80?


You may want to browse around on Cigar Pass, they have a lot of really useful info on wineodors. Im waiting to see how the summer goes before I decided if I need one or not.
