Configuring Your Refrigerator: How to Make Your Fridge Work for You

There are so many different types of refrigerators. And when it comes to customization and flexibility, we highly recommend Continental®.

Continental loves to customize – they work with consultants and designers every day, and customizing refrigerators to meet specific design requirements is their bread and butter. Here are just some of the ways you can configure your Continental refrigerator to your unique needs:

 

Doors or Drawers? You Choose!

With continental fridges you can switch out doors for drawers before and after your purchase. If the chef decides they want drawers in a door area, they can remove the door and install a drawer cage assembly. Don't stress, it can be sold separately, it's very easy to install, and also replace if need be. 

 

Compressor Flexibilityvent

This is huge. You can choose to place the compressor on the left or the right of the refrigerator because you never know where the heat will be in the kitchen, and you want to keep the compressor away from the heat. In addition, Continental also offers front-breathing kits and fan-assist packages. If you happen to have a compressor in a hot area, don't fret! You can add a fan to that area so the unit breathes properly.

 

Built-In Storage

You can add over-shelves that are cantilevered. All units come standard with this hardware, so all you have to do is screw the shelves to the back and you would have a set of single or double over-shelves.

It's All About the Finishes!

Stainless or glass, hinged left or right, laminate, powder-coated black, you choose! Design consultants love the various types of doors Continental offers.

 

Warranty

Continental refrigerators are backed with the best parts and labor and compressor warranty in the industry. 3 years for parts and labor and 5 years for the compressors!

 

 

No matter what kind of operation you are running Sam Tell and Continental have you covered.
