Wine coolers come in two basic designs: compressor units, which work like a small refrigerator, and thermoelectric units, which cool with a solid-state module and a pair of fans. The repair path is different for each. We pull these listings from public business data, remove closed businesses, parts stores and unrelated trades, and put companies that mention wine coolers and refrigeration at the top.

Why Wine Coolers Stop Cooling
What a Wine Cooler Technician Checks
Give the Cooler Room to Breathe
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)

What Wine Cooler Repair Costs
Wine cooler repairs are usually a fan, a control, a door seal or a cooling module; compressor work costs more. Published ranges:
- Technician labor: $50–$200 per hour Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a freezer?
- Technician labor: $100–$250 per hour Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a refrigerator?
For a newer built-in ice maker, replacing just the failed motor may be the best option, while on some older units a motor costs about as much as a new ice maker. Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair an ice maker?

What Plymouth Owners Should Know
Most wine cooler calls in Plymouth come down to airflow and clearance, fans, the door seal, the controls and, on thermoelectric units, the cooling module.
Minnesota has no state license for mechanical contractors or their workers; businesses contracting for gas, heating, cooling or refrigeration work file a mechanical contractor bond with the Department of Labor and Industry, and some cities require their own licenses or competency cards.

In Minnesota, you can check a license with the DLI License and Registration Lookup or report a problem to the Minnesota Attorney General's Office, Consumer Assistance.
