FAQ
Do I need to connect this refrigerator to a water line?
No external water source is required. The unit uses a manual water addition system to maintain proper interior humidity. You'll typically need to add water approximately once every two weeks, depending on usage and your environment.
Can this unit be installed as a built-in under a counter or between cabinets?
Yes - this refrigerator features front venting, which makes it fully compatible with built-in cabinet installation. At 67.72" tall, it is a full-height upright unit rather than an undercounter model, so it's best installed between tall cabinetry or as a freestanding unit. Be sure to follow the installation diagram for proper clearances, particularly for the power cord and hinge-side door swing.
How long does it take to properly dry age meat in this refrigerator?
Dry aging time depends on the cut and your desired flavor intensity. A minimum of 21-28 days is typical for a noticeable difference in tenderness and flavor, while 45-90 days produces the deep, concentrated flavor associated with premium steakhouse cuts. This unit's stable temperature and humidity control make it easy to maintain consistent conditions throughout any aging period.
What is the difference between the two door style options?
Both doors feature Low-E glass for insulation and condensation reduction. The Glass Door with Stainless Steel Frame has a classic professional look that suits traditional kitchen and commercial environments. The Borderless Black Glass Door offers a sleek, frameless modern aesthetic better suited to contemporary kitchens and design-forward hospitality spaces. The functional performance of the unit is identical between both styles.
Can this refrigerator be used in a commercial or restaurant setting?
Yes - this unit is suitable for both residential and light commercial environments, including restaurants, butcher shops, specialty food retailers, and hospitality kitchens. Its 13.7 cubic foot capacity supports multiple cuts and ongoing aging workflows, making it a practical solution for professional culinary operations as well as serious home use.
What warranty does this unit come with?
Every unit includes a 2-year KingsBottle Warranty at no additional cost. You can optionally extend coverage to 3 years for $199 or to 5 years for $399. See KingsBottle's warranty terms for full coverage details.
