Overview
A bar back wall or a restaurant service line is where this draft cooler goes, with kegs stored behind locked doors and beer drawn from the dual-faucet towers on the stainless top. Refrigeration is self-contained, so the unit cools itself without a remote condenser, and the galvanized interior with a reinforced stainless floor takes keg weight and wash-down.
Self-contained refrigeration and towers already on the top deliver a draft line without a remote condenser or a glycol run, and the key locks and NSF and UL listings are what a health inspection asks for. Moving it is a job for a crew, the keg couplers, gas and lines are not part of the listing, and a residential kitchen has no place for a unit this wide.
Who it's for
Bars and restaurant service lines pouring several kegs at a time are the setting for a cooler of this width, with the towers on top and the kegs locked below. A homeowner, a small cafe with one keg, or a buyer without a doorway and floor that take a unit of this weight should not order it.
Pros and cons
- Towers mounted on the stainless top
- Key locks on all doors
- Galvanized interior, reinforced stainless floor
- R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant
- Very heavy, needs a crew to place
- Couplers, lines, voltage and amperage not listed
- Commercial unit, not residential sized
Performance notes
Serving temperature depends on the self-contained compressor holding the whole cabinet cold, so the beer draws from a chilled keg instead of a warm one. The galvanized interior and reinforced stainless floor resist dents and corrosion from kegs being rolled in and from wash-down. Door locks and the certifications matter in a commercial setting, where unsecured kegs and unlisted equipment cause problems at inspection.

No. It is a commercial back-bar draft cooler built to NSF and UL standards, wide enough for several kegs and heavy enough to need a crew to place. It is not sized or styled for a kitchen.
Does the Beverage-Air DD78HC-1-B come with couplers, gas and beer lines?
The listing names the towers, doors, locks and refrigeration only. No couplers, regulator, gas tank or lines are mentioned.
Does the Beverage-Air DD78HC-1-B need a remote condenser?
No. Refrigeration is self-contained, so the compressor is built into the unit.
