Frequently asked questions

What electrical connection does the Atosa MBGF48GR need?

It needs a standard 115V, 60 Hz, single-phase grounded outlet that accepts a NEMA 5-15P plug. The unit draws 4.7 amps and has a 1/2 HP compressor.

Will the MBGF48GR fit through a standard doorway?

Yes. It is 28" deep, so it passes through a 36" doorway. At 36-3/4" high it is well under an 80" door opening. The unit is 49-1/2" wide, so it has to go through the door depth-first.

What temperature does it hold, and is it a freezer?

It holds between -8°F and 0°F and chills glasses and plates to 0°F. It is built to frost glassware and chill plates, not to store food.

How many glasses does the MBGF48GR hold?

What certifications does it have?

What warranty comes with the MBGF48GR?

Atosa covers parts and labor for 3 years. It also covers the sealed compressor against defects for 2 more years from the date of original installation, for 5 years in total.

You file claims directly with Atosa and need the model number, serial number, proof of purchase and installation date.

How is the MBGF48GR serviced and moved?
