Ventilate the unit frequently; a moist sandbox may be placed in the cabinet.
3.2 Humidity level is too high:
First of all reassure the customer that THIS PHENOMENON HAS ABSOLUTELY NO IMPACT ON THE
WINE obviously if maintained within normal proportions.
The worse that can happen is that the labels come off. Sprays that protect the labels are commercially available ( www.vinokado.com/fr ).
On the other hand, we all imagine old, prestigious bottles to have labels that are covered in mildew and are practically illegible. Therefore the presence of humidity can be a good thing.
