PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
Before beginning installaon, carefully
inspect the cabinet for hidden damage. If damage is discovered,
immediately le a claim with the transportaon company.
Perlick is not responsible for damage in transit.
When moving the unit, be sure to protect
nished ooring with appropriate material to avoid damage
from moving the appliance.
If the unit has been laid on its back or sides,
place unit upright and allow minimum of 24 hours before
connecng the unit. Failure to do so can aect the funcon and
performance of the appliance.
This appliance should be installed in dry,
venlated indoor locaon. The ambient temperature of the
locaon must be between 55°F (13°C) and 100°F (43°C) for
opmal performance.
This product must be installed on a level
oor for safety and opmal performance. The base must be
at to ensure an-p brackets properly funcon and that
the refrigeraon system is level. Any walls and surrounding
furniture/xtures need to be securely aached to the oor, wall
studs or concrete prior to installaon of the column.
To ensure proper performance, the air
intake (toe kick) must not be blocked. Perlick refrigeraon is
front-breathing — covering the intake will cause the system to
overheat and fail.
In addion, the appliance must not be in direct exposure of
constant sunlight or excessive heat. If it must be installed next
to a heat source, such as a cooking appliance or radiant heat,
you must install an insulang plate between the column and
heat source.
When fully stocked, Perlick column refrigeraon is very heavy.
To ensure the safety and prevent home damage, the load-
bearing capacity of your oor must be 846 lbs (384 kg).

INSTALLATION TOOLS AND MATERIALS

OPENING DIMENSIONS - SINGLE UNIT
The depth of each Perlick column is 24” (610). Allow for
panel thickness when planning the nished opening depth. A
minimum of a 4” (102) nished return is required on all sides
of the opening. See page 5 for niche and product dimension
drawings.
It is important that the side walls of the niche are plumb prior
to installaon. The minimum thickness of both the side walls
and the top wall must be 5/8” (16). A thickness of 3/4” (19) is
recommended for toe kick panels.
Framed cabinets will require addional nished ller material
behind the face frame for a proper installaon. Refer to the
illustraon on page 5.
OPENING DIMENSIONS - TWO UNITS
When installing two units side-by-side, a Perlick Dual Installaon
Kit (part number CR-ACC-D1) is required. You must plan for
both units plus dual installaon kit when planning the cut-out
dimensions. Thecutoutwidthfordualinstallaonsis48-1/2”
