Wine Cooler Toe-Kick Venting

Does an under-counter wine fridge need special venting?

Compressor Cooling

Yes. Most under-counter units vent from the front (bottom). The cabinet toe-kick must remain unobstructed, or we must CNC-slot the toe-kick board to ensure the compressor doesn't overheat and fail.
