About the role

A wine cellar storing bottles worth tens of thousands of pesos requires refrigeration maintained to ±0.5°C. The refrigeration technician who can deliver that precision — who understands the relationship between ambient heat in summer and cooling system performance — is protecting an asset that the property values highly, and earning the respect of a sommelier who knows exactly what it takes to maintain those conditions.
