Wine Cooler Installation Notes
A wine cooler is best installed where room temperature stays between about 70°F and 78°F, and not in an unheated or uninsulated space such as a garage. Source: Frigidaire - Wine Cooler Use & Care Guide (A15310502)
On an undercounter beverage center, keep the lower front of the unit clear, since its cabinet needs adequate airflow to shed heat. Source: Frigidaire - Beverage Center Use & Care Guide (A30847101)

Local Notes for Sunset
Most wine cooler calls in Sunset come down to airflow and clearance, fans, the door seal, the controls and, on thermoelectric units, the cooling module.
Florida's construction licensing guidance says that paid work such as installing a dishwasher connected to drinking water or replacing a water heater requires a licensed contractor, and that a local business tax receipt or certificate of competency may also apply; it does not describe a separate state appliance repair license.

In Florida, you can check a license with the DBPR Verify a License (MyFloridaLicense.com) or report a problem to the Florida Attorney General, Office of Citizen Services / Consumer Protection.
