Why would I buy a Dacor Built-in
Refrigerator over the competition’s
built-in refrigerator?
The competition makes a fine product. We believe that the Dacor Built-in
Refrigerator does a better job keeping food fresh. With the combination
of a variable speed compressor, computer temperature control and
FoodSaver™Technology Drawers the contents will be kept at the optimum
temperatures as selected by the customer.
Tests have proven that the temperature control is better in the Dacor
Built-in Refrigerator than almost any other product available.

How much space does it take up?
The cabinet stands almost seven feet tall.
The 48-inch model takes up approximately four feet of wall space by four
and a half feet of depth for the door openings.
The 42-inch model fits in a three and a half foot width by just slightly more
than four feet of depth.

•
What is the storage capacity?
The 48-inch model has about as much interior space as the largest
side-by-side freestanding refrigerators currently available. The 42-inch
model has about the same interior space as a large top or bottom mount
refrigerator.
Cubic feet of storage is not the only measure of capacity. With less cabinet
depth the contents are easier to reach. There is more width to the cabinet
allowing more available space at the front of the shelving.
•
•
Can it be customized to match my
cabinets?
The exterior appearance is only limited by your imagination and the cabinet
maker’s skill. If you want it to look just like your cabinets, check with
your cabinetmaker. Installation and customization information is available
from your Dacor dealer so you can plan your exterior before you make a
decision to buy.
•
How much does it weigh?
Almost 400 pounds.
•
Is it Energy Star rated?
Not at this time. The testing standards for Energy Star approval are very
specific and primarily designed around conventional refrigerators. The
Variable Capacity Compressor system does not match the testing criteria
very well. In actual use we are confident that your operating costs will be
as economical as possible for this type of product.
•
Is there a dispenser model?
Yes.
Filtered water, cubed ice and crushed ice are all available through the door.
There is a filter monitor to remind you when to order a new filter and when
to replace the filter.
•
Is there a non-dispenser model?
Yes.
If through the door dispensing is not a priority, the product is available
without the dispenser system.
