Wine Fridges, Insects & The Bahamas
For Serious Homeowners seeking Practical Solutions.

Luxury Home Feature - Beverage Fridges
Beverage and wine fridges in the home are becoming more and more common.
These are being installed in the kitchen, in your bar area, and in master bedroom suites. These are all convenient places to store extra beverages.
What you Need to Know About Beverage Fridges
There are 2 types of cooling systems in beverage fridges:
Compressor Cooling - An AC refrigerant system, similar to larger fridges. Makes noise.
Thermoelectric Cooling - Uses an electric device called a Peltier, that moves heat. More energy efficient than compressor cooling, and makes very little noise. You’ll find this system in most smaller beverage fridges.
For wine - You must make sure the humidity is correct so that the corks do not dry out.
There are proper temperature ranges for storing red and white wine.
You must not expose the wine bottles to UV light.
Finally, wine bottles must be stored on their side.

Some interesting brands for these include:
Liebherr - Offering wine storage and tempering refrigerators.
WineEnthusiast - Offering wine coolers.
Vinotemp - Offering wine coolers and storage options.
Perlick - Offering wine and beverage coolers.
Weekly Maintenance Reminder - Spraying For Insects
It’s that time of year when the bugs start to intrude. Ants, spiders, mosquitos, and more.
With a sprayer and a pesticide concentrate, you can usually spray the entire perimeter of your home in under 30 minutes.

A few tips:
Buy concentrate pesticide to save money. You just have to mix with water.
Use an inexpensive 1 or 2 gallon hand pump sprayer.
Label your sprayer bottle with the contents.
Apply the spray about 4” on the ground and about 6” up the side of your homes walls.
