Sub-Zero 249R

Model # 249R

Sub-Zero undercounter & drawers repair

The 249R is an undercounter refrigerator/freezer. Sub-Zero’s published specification for it lists manual defrost, freezer compartment with two cube trays, interior light and interior freezer light, removable wire shelves, one-piece interior. It is a discontinued model — it belongs to the retired 200 Series. Out of production does not mean out of service: this generation is still in daily use in kitchens that have not been rebuilt around it. The 200 Series guide puts the serial number on the inside cabinet liner at the top, read with the door open. Ventilation clearance at the grille is the first thing lost when a kitchen is refitted around a unit of this size, and it is the most common root cause we find.

FAQ

Sub-Zero 249R FAQ

The 249R belongs to Sub-Zero's 200 Series undercounter line, which Sub-Zero has retired. No source states exact production years for the 249R, so we publish none rather than guess at a range.

Sub-Zero describes the 249R as an undercounter refrigerator/freezer, and the published specification adds manual defrost, freezer compartment with two cube trays, interior light and interior freezer light, removable wire shelves, one-piece interior.

With the unit switched off at its supply, note what the 249R is set to, what it is holding, and how much clearance it has around the grille. Access is often the longest part of the visit, so that helps us plan it.
