Summary – Water Dispenser Presence
Every currently listed 42″ built-in Dacor fridge on major retailer sites includes a water dispenser (either internal or external).
At this time, there is no standard 42″ built-in Dacor refrigerator model offered without a water dispenser in official specs.
If your priority is no dispenser at all, you would need to consider either a column refrigerator/freezer combination (two separate modules) or a custom panel scenario where the dispenser hardware is not connected/used inside, but those are not typical of the standard 42″ single built-in refrigerators.
A:AnswerOn the Dacor 24.0 Cu. Ft. Side‑by‑Side Built‑In Refrigerator with Precise Cooling and External Water & Ice Dispenser, the ice maker is located in the freezer compartment and feeds the door dispenser system.
Unlike some French‑door or bottom‑freezer models that include a removable ice bin for scooping, this side‑by‑side design is built around the external dispenser. The ice bucket is integrated into the dispenser assembly, so it isn’t intended for manual scooping.
That said: You can access the ice bucket inside the freezer door if you open the compartment, it can be removed for cleaning or service. While you could technically scoop ice directly from that bucket, it’s not designed as a “scoop‑ready” bin, and doing so regularly may be less convenient than using the dispenser.
A:AnswerHi Anna! Thank you for inquiring on this Dacor Refrigerator DYF42SBIWR. Please place a call to the dealer to confirm the store availability. We also encourage you to reach out to Dacor Customer Support at 1-833-353-5483.
A:AnswerThe power cord on the Dacor 24.0 Cu. Ft. Side-by-Side Built-In Refrigerator is approximately 6 feet long, which gives you decent flexibility for installation.
The cord typically exits from the lower rear section of the fridge. So if your outlet is about 1 foot above the top of the fridge, the cord should comfortably reach—no need to relocate the outlet in most cases.
A:AnswerYour fridge shows 37°F on the display but 63°F inside—likely due to:
- Blocked vents ➜ Rearrange items to allow airflow.
- Dirty condenser coils ➜ Vacuum them if accessible.
- Bad door seal ➜ Check for gaps or wear.
- Faulty fan or sensor ➜ Try unplugging for 5 minutes to reset.
- Power Cool off ➜ Activate it via the control panel.
If these recommendations do not help, it may need a technician—especially if it’s a sensor or compressor issue.

A:AnswerI had previously a paneled refrigerator before I bought this one. I had hope the same you thought. I had to trash the beautiful caver matching panels. The frig wasn’t designed for the panels. Just the way it was designed. I love the new frig , I got over the panel issue.
A:AnswerYou don't need open space above the refrigerator. We had our cabinets built to the refrigerator install specs (84"). I didn't do the install but you'll want a little space for adjustments of the legs to make perfectly level and for door alignment. If you squeeze in a 83.5" appliance into a 83.5” space there is no adjustment room.
