Measure the Refrigerator Dimensions

Dacor fridges come in various sizes and models. So, first you should measure the dimensions width, height, and depth of your fridge freezer before starting installation. Measuring should be done even considering the space that is being swept when you open and close the doors.

You should arrange the place in your kitchen for the fridge to fit in, according to the measurements taken. It is best to check the user manual for appropriate values.

It is important to leave some extra space all around the refrigerator for air to fill the gaps, as it helps in cooling the condenser coils.

Move the Unit

After measuring the appliance as said earlier, check whether the path also has enough space i.e from the unpacking area to the kitchen space, to move the refrigerator through.

It’s best if you can remove the doors from the fridge as it will reduce the appliance weight and makes moving easy. If not possible, tape them tight to ensure they not to open on the way while taking them in.

Now we can start moving the fridge. It’s better to use a trolley. If not you should use the help of others as well, as it is a heavy appliance. You should be extremely careful when you are moving it up the stairs.

The freezer equipment can be tilted but should not be carried horizontally or in an inverted position. Because there will be liquid or gas refrigerant and thin electrical wires that can get damaged.

Refrigerator Installation

After moving it to the kitchen, place it on the floor. Cover the floor with the cardboard prior before keeping the fridge down near its place.

Check whether there is enough space to set the water line in case your fridge is not the one with an inbuilt water dispenser.

The water line kits are not always provided by the manufacturer. So you should know it beforehand and prepare accordingly. If you are replacing your old refrigerator with a new, then the old water line will work.

Keep the lengths of the water and electrical lines extra, so that you can move the fridge freely. Take care of the water lining so that it should not have any leakages. If you are not familiar with the work, it's better to hire a plumber.

Now after fixing everything, you keep the refrigerator in its appropriate position and level it by adjusting the knobs given at the bottom of its legs. Plug in the refrigerator's electric line into the switch box.

Start the Refrigerator

It's better to leave the refrigerator at rest for a couple of hours after installation. This will give time for the refrigerant to settle down. After that, we can switch on the refrigerator and check its functioning. At first, adjust the temperatures low as it's just warming up!

It is better to use a fridge guard to protect your unit from fluctuating voltages. It regulates the voltage constantly and prevents the appliance when there is a surge or drop in voltage. This will ensure a long-lasting and efficient output from your refrigerator. Always make sure there are no leaks in condenser coils and the water lines.

Now you know how to install a refrigerator. We hope our post helps you well in installing a fridge on your own. If you are hesitant about doing it on your own, you can always hire a professional. So, go and install your Dacor refrigerator and make all your summers into winters!
