The BI-36RS is a 36″ Classic refrigerator variant from Sub-Zero’s legacy built-in lineup. Beyond the model identifier, no separate specification for this variant has been published, so it’s serviced as part of the broader 36″ Classic family.
Water pooling beneath the crisper drawers, and a control panel reading a temperature the cabinet isn’t actually holding, are the issues reported most on a BI-36RS. One side of the cabinet running warmer than the other is the other common call, worth confirming with a technician before ordering parts on a model this lightly documented.
