Site Preparation
M
ake sure that the finished rough opening where the wine
storage unit is being installed is properly prepared. Refer
to installation specifications on the following pages. These
specifications are identical for the framed, overlay and
stainless steel applications. Installation specifications are
different for the flush inset application, whether you are
using custom panels or Sub-Zero accessory flush inset
panels.
If you are installing two models WS-30, or a model WS-30
and a built-in unit side by side in the framed, overlay, flush
inset or stainless steel application, a filler strip is recom-
mended. Add the filler strip width to the finished rough
opening dimension. For installation of two units side by
side without a filler strip, a dual installation kit will be
necessary.
IMPORTANT NOTE: To operate properly, the door must
open a minimum of 90°. Use a minimum 3" (76) filler in
corner installations to assure a 90° door opening. Allow
enough clearance in front of the unit for full door swing.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Make sure the floor under the unit is
level with the surrounding finished floor.
Do not load wine into the wine storage unit until the
installation is complete.
