Kalamazoo Outdoor Gourmet™ Introduces 15-Inch Outdoor Refrigeration Components

The Custom Outdoor Kitchen Collection Expands Design Capabilities for Small Spaces

CHICAGO, IL (March 6, 2008) – Kalamazoo Outdoor Gourmet™ is the leading industry resource for designing and equipping the complete outdoor kitchen– no matter the size. With the launch of its new 15” Kalamazoo Outdoor Refrigeration Collection, the company can now accommodate designers working on smaller footprints with the same luxury components of a large-scale design. The complete line of 15” refrigeration includes:

• Refrigerated Drawers: World’s First
• Keg Tapper: World’s First
• Wine Chiller
• Refrigerator
• Glass Door Refrigerator
• Beverage Center
• Clear Ice Maker (already in collection)

From compact balconies to modest backyards, the new 15” outdoor refrigeration line provides design flexibility yet offers ample storage space: the Wine Chiller, for example, accommodates 24 bottles on five fully-extending racks, the single tap Keg Tapper holds a 1/6 pony keg, and the Refrigerated Drawers are tall enough to hold a gallon of milk. Each 15” appliance features commercial-quality stainless steel interiors, precise temperature controls and energy efficient cooling. Superior performance is achieved through advanced insulation, unique convection cooling technology and powerful variable speed compressors.

Kalamazoo’s full line of more than 75 outdoor cooking components, refrigeration appliances and modular cabinetry allows for limitless design configurations and easy installation. Kalamazoo outdoor kitchens can be installed as either free-standing, for a gleaming stainless steel look, or incorporated into other materials such as masonry, stucco or wood
