Designed for venues in Dudley
Two proven options for your setup
Customised cooling systems to keep your drinks at the perfect serving temperature
Standard cellar cooling systems
Our standard cellar coolers are typically set to cool the room to approximately 12°C.
From there, your beer and other beverages run through an additional cooling stage and along the dispense lines to the taps, so they reach the ideal serving temperature every time you pour.
Insulated cold room style cooling behind the bar
The second approach we’ve implemented for a number of customers is to build an insulated cold room behind the bar as the rear wall.
The room itself is typically cooled to 2–4°C (or to your preferred temperature). With the taps positioned just about 80mm away through the insulated wall, there’s no need for extended line runs.
This means waste is cut to almost zero, and you can also remove the need for an extra cooling unit to achieve the correct serving temperature.

Dudley Cellar Cooling FAQs
What is the ideal temperature for cellar cooling?
The ideal temperature for cellar cooling is typically between 2 to 12 degrees Celsius, depending on the specific requirements for your beverages or products. This range ensures optimal preservation and serving conditions.
How do I decide between standard units and an insulated cold room?
Choosing between standard units and an insulated cold room depends on your specific needs. Standard units are effective for general cooling requirements, while insulated cold rooms offer superior temperature control, energy efficiency, and reduced wastage, making them ideal for high-demand environments.

Where can you install cellar cooling solutions?
How often should cellar cooling be serviced
For most pubs and bars, we recommend a professional service at least once a year. If your cellar cooling runs hard year-round, sits in a warm plant area, or you rely on it heavily for consistent dispense, every 6 months is often better to reduce breakdown risk and keep efficiency up.
What causes a cellar cooler to ice up
Icing is usually a sign of restricted airflow or the evaporator coil running too cold. Common causes include:
- Dirty filters or blocked coils
- Fan faults or poor air circulation
- Low refrigerant (often linked to a leak)
- High humidity / frequent door opening letting moist air in
- Drainage or defrost issues (water not clearing properly)
Can you repair existing systems
Yes. We can fault-find and repair most existing cellar cooling systems, including replacing failed components, resolving refrigerant issues, improving airflow, and correcting performance problems. If a unit is beyond economical repair, we’ll tell you plainly and quote for the most suitable replacement.
Can you reduce running costs
In many cases, yes. The biggest cost savers tend to be:
- Regular servicing (clean coils, correct charge, fans running efficiently)
- Improving insulation and sealing (doors, wall penetrations, warm air ingress)
- Optimising controls and setpoints so the system doesn’t overwork
- Fixing issues that cause constant running (airflow restrictions, failing components)
- Assessing system sizing and layout (an undersized or poorly distributed system can be expensive to run)
