Description & Features
The Dacor DRR36980RAP 36" built‑in refrigerator column is designed for homeowners who want professional‑grade performance wrapped in a seamlessly integrated, panel‑ready exterior. With a generous 21.6 cu. ft. all‑refrigerator capacity and a width of approximately 36", this column offers expansive, flexible storage while fitting cleanly into premium kitchen layouts. Behind your custom panels, the interior reveals a striking SteelCool™ all‑stainless steel cavity with 3DLighting™—expansive, integrated LED illumination that showcases your fresh ingredients on spill‑proof, metal‑trimmed glass shelves and full‑extension drawers, turning everyday food storage into a high‑end display. A standout advantage over many standard built‑ins is the combination of PreciseCooling™ technology and a dedicated compressor/evaporator system, engineered to minimize temperature fluctuations and maintain ideal humidity so produce, meats, cheeses and beverages stay fresher, taste better and last longer. Another signature feature that sets this model apart is iQ RemoteView™ connectivity: dual interior cameras and Wi‑Fi integration let you check what’s inside from your smartphone, adjust temperatures, and monitor lighting and performance while you’re away, making grocery planning and entertaining far more convenient. Daily use is further elevated by the discreet Hidden Touch Control Panel, positioned at a comfortable, waist‑high level; with a simple touch, it appears to give you precise electronic control, then disappears again to preserve the clean, uninterrupted interior lines. The Push‑To‑Open Door Assist mechanism adds to the minimalist aesthetic by eliminating the need for a bulky handle—ideal for contemporary, handle‑free cabinetry—while still delivering a smooth, effortless door motion. For instant refreshment, an internal filtered water dispenser is tucked just inside, providing chilled, great‑tasting water without disrupting the exterior design. Thoughtful storage details such as the versatile FreshZone™ drawer with selectable modes for meat, cheese or extra‑cold drinks, plus humidity‑controlled crispers and robust glass‑and‑metal door bins, help you organize everything from farmers’ market produce to party platters with ease. Energy Star–qualified efficiency, smart home–ready controls and luxury material finishes make the Dacor DRR36980RAP an exceptional choice for custom kitchens where performance, technology and design all have to meet the highest standard.

Full‑width tempered glass shelves with metal trim – spill‑proof shelves contain leaks and add a premium, durable finish.
Full‑extension drawers at 90° door opening – allow drawers to pull completely out even when the door opens only to a right‑angle, helpful in tight kitchen layouts.
Two humidity‑controlled drawers – let you fine‑tune moisture levels for produce, helping fruits and vegetables stay crisp longer.
FreshZone™ full‑width storage drawer – accommodates large platters, meats, or beverages with precise temperature control and safe defrosting options.
Four adjustable door bins – provide flexible, easy‑access storage for bottles, condiments and frequently used items.
Deodorizing air filter – helps reduce odors inside the refrigerator to keep the interior smelling fresh.
Door open alarm – alerts you if the door is left ajar, helping prevent temperature loss and food spoilage.
