FAGOR INTRODUCES 24 NO FROST SPACE SAVER REFRIGERATOR
Lyndhurst, NJ In December 2007, Fagor America Inc., the worldwide leader in built-in induction cooktops, will launch the first 24 cabinet deep refrigerator in their US domestic appliance line (model #3FCA-68NFX). Measuring 78 x 24 x 24, the refrigerator has been styled in true cabinet depth. This space saving unit features a modern design and high-end stainless steel construction, and is a perfect match for condos and apartments in urban areas or anywhere that kitchen space may be limited. The slim depth and width enables the refrigerator to fit flush into a 24" deep installation cutout, allowing for a uniform installation that integrates beautifully with surrounding cabinetry. The doors can be mounted interchangeably to open from either side, creating a custom fit in your kitchen, or, for the option of placing two units side by side, using a union kit. It is a U.L listed appliance and features finger print resistant Stainless Steel. In addition to these basics, the refrigerator also boasts some major characteristics that make it unique such as unbreakable glass trays and drawer fronts, as well as independent compartments with electronic regulation. The independent Multi Fresh and Double Fresh drawers allow for two unique environments within the refrigerator, ideal for keeping vegetables crisp while meats and seafood can simultaneously be stored at their ideal level of moisture. It is currently the healthiest refrigerator available in the market. Equipped with a unique BIO Filter; an antibacterial/odor eliminating filter with indicator to keep the refrigerator hygienic by retaining mold and bacteria from the circulating air. The drum additionally contains a protection cover that disables such bacterial particles from settling and growing, thus allowing foods to remain fresh for longer periods of time. Fagors exclusive No-Frost System is different than any other competitive product available in the marketplace at the moment as it distributes itself throughout the entire refrigerator (not just the freezer). In addition, the unit is also highly energy efficient because of its ability to evenly circulate air throughout. This capability drastically reduces the condensation level within the unit and eliminates the need to periodically de-frost in order to free it from heavy ice build up. Some other advanced functions include fast cooling of the refrigerator and super-freezing capabilities with a vacation setting. The fast cooling and super-freezing functions allow you to
introduce large quantities of food at once, which the refrigerator automatically detects & adjusts itself to accommodate. The vacation setting is used when you want the freezer to work normally while the refrigerator remains at 57F, preventing odor and bacteria. An open door alarm and beeper alarm with warning light indicate any sudden interruption of the cold chain. Also, one generator source for fridge and freezer makes the entire unit less noisy. The unit will be available for order through authorized Fagor dealers beginning December 2007. Suggested Retail Price for this unit (model #3FCA-68NFX) is: $1699.00 USD.
