The IC-36F is a 36″ Designer column freezer, panel ready, from Sub-Zero’s legacy Designer generation, without a built-in ice maker. It’s no longer produced.
A compartment that recovers slowly once the door has been open, and a defrost cycle not completing, leaving ice on the evaporator, are the cooling issues reported most on an IC-36F. A custom panel that’s worked its way proud of the surrounding cabinetry after years of use is the other common call on this panel-ready column.
