Introducing New Built-In Refrigeration. Beginning in Fall, 2008, you will have a new line of built-in refrigeration  
to offer your clients. We have re-engineered—exterior and interior—our built-in product line to offer you the best in design  
options, and your clients the best in food preservation. The 600 series as you understand it now will be gone and the new  
offering will take its place. We will have new panel sizes, model numbers and many new features. Review this design  
guide for general specification information and keep coming back to the trade section of our website, subzerotrade.com,  
for new information during the coming months.

Plumbing Requirements. All built-in models with an  
automatic ice maker come with a microbiological water  
filtration system. The water supply line should be located  
within the shaded area shown in the illustration. The  
water supply line should be connected to the house  
supply with an easily accessible shut-off valve between  
the supply and the unit. Do not use self-piercing valves.  
A saddle valve kit (4200880) is available from your  
Sub-Zero dealer. The water line must not interfere with  
installation of the anti-tip brackets.

Framed Panels. If you and your client have ordered a  
framed model, you will be adding panels to give the unit  
the traditional Sub-Zero look. The framed panel design  
option is available for all built-in framed models. For exact  
door panel dimensions for built-in framed models, refer to  
framed panel specifications on the following pages. Also  
refer to the full-scale templates at the end of this guide

Overlay Panels

Overlay Panels. If you and your client have ordered  
an overlay model, you will be adding panels and handles  
to give the unit a more custom look. The overlay panel  
design option is available for all built-in overlay models.  
For exact door panel dimensions, refer to overlay panel  
specifications on the following pages.  
IMPORTANT NOTE: Overlay models can be used in a  
overlay or a flush inset application. Be aware that the  
application specified will affect panel sizes, rough open-  
ing dimensions and installation.  
The overlay design allows decorative panels to cover the  
door trim for a more seamless appearance that blends  
with the design of the room. The most common way to  
achieve this look is to work with three panels—the deco-  
3
rative overlay panel which is typically /4" (19), a .10" (3)  
1
spacer panel and a /4" (6) backer panel. Depending on  
your cabinet manufacturer, this could also be one panel  
routed for different dimensions.  
Regardless of the physical construction of the panels  
(three-panel assembly or routed panel), you will need to  
follow the overlay panel specifications on the following  
pages for exact sizing and panel placement to ensure a  
proper fit.  
Custom cabinet overlay panels can be combined with  
unique hardware for design flexibility. Shown with curved  
handle option to compliment Wolf E Series ovens.

Flush Inset Application  
22  
Flush Inset Application. It is necessary to consider  
the following points when planning for a flush inset  
application:  
•
•
•
The flush inset depth is 23/16" (56) deeper than the  
standard opening.  
The flush inset width is 21/2" (64) wider than the  
standard opening.  
1
The flush inset height is /4" (6) higher than the  
standard opening.  
•
•
Panel widths increase to achieve the flush inset look.  
1
You must allow a /2" (13) reveal around the perimeter  
of the unit and grille to allow for proper door swing  
and airflow.  
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not confuse the flush inset applica-  
tion as being a separate model. This is an overlay unit in a  
flush installation. The same model is used in an overlay or  
flush inset application.  
Rough opening dimensions for the new flush inset appli-  
3
cation assume the use of a /4" (19) decorative panel. The  
illustrations below show the difference between standard  
and flush inset installations.  
This brand new design option allows for a flush door and  
grille. Classic, platinum and carbon stainless steel panels  
are available as sales accessories. Shown with tubular  
handle option to mirror Wolf L Series ovens.

Flush Inset Panels. The flush inset application allows  
decorative panels on the front of the unit to be flush with  
surrounding cabinetry and is available for all built-in  
overlay models. For exact panel dimensions, refer to flush  
inset panel specifications on the following pages.  
Do not exceed the flush inset decorative panel  
dimensions. Exceeding dimensions could cause  
damage to the panels and the Sub-Zero unit.  
The flush inset design allows decorative panels to cover  
the door trim for a seamless appearance that blends with  
the design of the room. The most common way to  
achieve this look is to work with three panels—the deco-

Dispenser Specifications

Dispenser Area. For Models BI-42SD and BI-48SD,  
the refrigerator door panel must include a cut-out to  
accommodate the dispenser glasswell and bezel. The  
1
thickness of the panel in this area can range from /4" (6)  
to a maximum of 11/8" (29).  
IMPORTANT NOTE: Regardless of the thickness of the  
panel for Model BI-42SD or BI-48SD, you must plan for a  
flat landing area for the decorative bezel surrounding the  
glasswell area. The illustration to the right provides exact  
bezel dimensions. Refer to the appropriate panel specifi-  
cations page for exact cut-out location. This landing area  
can be accomplished in a number of different ways.  
These photos show two options.  
Flush option.  
Proud option.  
One option (flush) is to rout the panel so the bezel will be  
flush with rails and stiles. You must rout a space to  
accommodate the height and width of the bezel. The  
width of the stile immediately adjacent to the bezel must  
be 17/16" (37). Do not cut the entire stile to this dimen-  
sion.

The other option (proud) shows a boxed out landing area  
for the bezel using stiles and rails to create this space. In  
this application, the bezel will sit proud of the stiles and  
rails. The total thickness of the panels at this level must  
not exceed 11/8" (29).

Side Panels. Side panels can be used with all framed,  
overlay, flush inset and stainless steel design applica-  
tions. When planning for side panels with the installation  
of a built-in model, you need to be aware of the space  
configuration to achieve a pleasing fit. Depending on the  
exact panel you are using with your unit, the height of the  
panel may vary.

Dual Installations

Dual Standard Installations. Two framed, overlay  
or stainless steel units may be placed side by side in a  
dual installation. Some dual standard installations will  
require a dual installation kit, available through your  
Sub-Zero dealer. If you are installing two units side by  
side in a flush inset application refer to page 33.  
A custom filler strip can be used in between two units in a  
framed, overlay or stainless steel design application. It is  
recommended that the filler strip be at least 2" (51) wide,  
to prevent condensation between the units. Be sure to  
add the filler strip width to your rough opening width.  
Refer to the full-scale template on page 41.  
Dual installations without a filler strip can only be accom-  
plished using two units with opposite hinges as shown in  
illustration A below. The dual installations shown in illus-  
trations B and C require a filler strip.  
IMPORTANT NOTE: For the application shown in illustra-  
tion A, a dual installation accessory kit is required. Refer  
to page 36 for information on dual installation accessory  
kits.

Dual Flush Inset Installation. Installing two built-in  
models side by side in a flush inset application will require  
adjustments to the dimensions of your finished rough  
opening, panel sizes and panel offsets. It will also require  
a dual installation kit, available through your Sub-Zero  
dealer.  
Dual installations without a filler strip can only be accom-  
plished using two units with opposite hinges as shown in  
illustration A below. The dual installations shown in illus-  
trations B and C require a filler strip. Illustration A is the  
only application that will accommodate the dual wide grille.  
IMPORTANT NOTE: The application shown in illustration A  
can only be achieved by installing dual flush inset panels.  
Failure to install dual flush inset panels will cause the  
handle side of the panels to collide when closing. In this  
application a dual installation accessory kit is also  
required.  
Dual flush inset panels and dual installation kits are avail-  
able through your Sub-Zero dealer. Refer to pages 34–35  
for dual flush inset panel specifications and page 36 for  
information on dual installation accessory kits.
