Description & Features
The Dacor DRZ18980RAP 18" Column Freezer is a premium built‑in solution designed for homeowners who want high‑performance food preservation wrapped in a sleek, fully integrated look. With a width of 17‑3/4" and a thoughtfully engineered 9.5 cu. ft. interior, this column freezer maximizes vertical storage while fitting seamlessly into narrower kitchen layouts or custom panel installations. Behind its panel‑ready exterior, the freezer showcases a distinctive SteelCool™ all‑stainless interior with immersive 3D LED lighting that bathes every shelf and bin in clear, even illumination, turning everyday ingredients into a beautifully presented display and making it easy to find items at a glance. A standout convenience feature is the Push‑To‑Open Door Assist, which allows the door to open with a gentle press—ideal for hands‑full moments or handle‑free contemporary cabinetry, and a refinement you won’t find on many standard upright freezers. Just inside, a waist‑high Hidden Touch Control Panel appears only when needed, giving you precise digital control over temperature and special modes while preserving the clean, uninterrupted lines of the interior when closed. To protect the flavor, texture, and color of your frozen foods, PreciseCooling™ technology works with dedicated compressors and evaporators to maintain remarkably stable temperatures with minimal fluctuation, helping reduce freezer burn and preserve quality over time. The interior layout is optimized with three full‑width tempered glass shelves, two spacious freezer drawers, and four door bins, so you can organize everything from bulk meats and frozen meals to desserts and entertaining platters without wasting space. An integrated icemaker adds everyday practicality, supplying a steady stream of ice without sacrificing the column’s streamlined design. ENERGY STAR qualification underscores its efficiency, helping to keep operating costs in check even in busy households. Whether installed as a stand‑alone column or paired with a matching refrigerator column for a custom built‑in suite, the Dacor DRZ18980RAP delivers a combination of luxury materials, advanced cooling performance, and minimalist design details that set it apart from typical freezers in its class.

Efficient R600a refrigerant – uses a modern refrigerant that is more energy‑efficient and environmentally friendly than older formulations.

Low annual energy consumption – engineered to deliver high performance with reduced yearly kWh usage.
