Serviced Gaggenau Models
Professional repair diagnostics and replacement parts are available for the following Gaggenau units:
An early entry in Gaggenau's built-in wine cooler column lineup, the RW 404 offered a 24-inch wide column format with dual-zone temperature control designed to store both red and white wines at their ideal serving temperatures simultaneously. Constructed with a UV-protected glass door and vibration-dampened compressor to protect wine quality. One of the first luxury built-in wine columns offered by Gaggenau for the North American market.
- Dual-zone independent temperature control
- UV-filtering tinted glass door
- Vibration-dampened compressor mounting
The RW 464 is Gaggenau's mid-generation flagship wine cooler column, succeeding the RW 404 and representing a significant upgrade in temperature precision and interior design. Features a three-zone temperature concept allowing separate climate zones for champagne/sparkling, white wine, and red wine storage within a single 24-inch column. The interior uses metal-framed sliding wine racks with felt-lined channels to prevent label damage.
- Three independent temperature zones (5–12°C / 12–18°C / 16–20°C)
- Metal-framed sliding wine racks with felt lining
- UV-protective laminated glass door
The RW 466 is Gaggenau's current-generation premium wine cooler column, representing the most refined iteration of their 24-inch wine storage column lineup. It features enhanced temperature uniformity across the full column height through an improved air circulation system. The interior has been updated with premium smoked oak wooden slat racks and an improved active humidity system compared to the RW 464. First introduced in 2019, it is designed to work with the Home Connect smart home ecosystem and the updated Vario 400 control interface.
- Three independent precision temperature zones
- Smoked oak wooden wine racks
- Active humidity regulation (40–80% RH adjustable)
A 24-inch wide built-in wine cooler from Gaggenau's entry-level 200 series, offering dual-zone temperature control at a lower price point than the Vario 400 wine columns. Designed primarily for European markets, the RW 222 lacks some premium features of the 400 series (such as active humidity regulation) but retains the core UV-protected glass door and vibration-isolated compressor. Available in a panel-ready configuration for full furniture integration.
- Dual-zone temperature control
- UV-filtering tinted glass door
- Passive humidity retention (no active system)
