True Residential
True Residential is the home refrigeration line of True Manufacturing, the maker of commercial refrigeration in O'Fallon, Missouri. It builds column refrigerators and freezers, wine cabinets, undercounter units and drawers, beverage centers, and clear ice machines.
What True Residential makes
True Residential builds refrigeration in the sizes a kitchen actually uses. The catalog runs from undercounter refrigerator and freezer drawers, beverage centers, and clear ice makers up to full-height refrigerator, freezer, and wine columns, plus glass-door units that show a stocked interior. Widths run from 15 to 48 inches across the lines, in panel-ready form for cabinet integration or with the brand's own stainless and colored fronts. Color is a defining part of the line: units can be ordered in a wide palette with a choice of hardware finish, so the refrigeration reads as a designed piece rather than a stainless box. Wine columns hold separate zones for reds and whites. The company grew out of True Manufacturing, a long-running maker of commercial foodservice refrigeration, and that pedigree shows in how the residential units are built.

Before you plan True Residential units
Pick the unit by function and width: columns come in 24, 30, and 36 inches (beverage columns 24 and 30), undercounter units in 15 and 24 inches, side-by-side models in 42 and 48, and bottom-freezer models in 30 and 36. For a counter that calls for it, the maker lists a low-profile ADA-height group, 24 inches wide. A clear ice machine is a 15-inch unit with an ADA version. Ask whether a model is made for outdoor use before you place it outdoors, since the maker markets outdoor-rated refrigeration in 300-series stainless steel. Ask us about doors, finishes, and panels for the model you want, because the maker lists glass and solid doors, overlay panels, and custom finishes for its 15-inch and 24-inch outdoor units. Read the warranty documents on the maker's site, since the terms are the maker's.
Where True Residential units go
True Residential suits a kitchen, bar, or beverage room that needs the units by function: a wine column, an undercounter drawer pair, or a clear ice machine beside a full-height column. Its undercounter line covers refrigerators, drawers, freezers, wine cabinets, and beverage dispensers, so one maker can fill a bar run. To compare undercounter units across makers, read the undercounter refrigerator guide; for wine, see the built-in wine refrigerator guide; for ice, the undercounter ice maker guide. For another maker's built-in refrigeration, see the Sub-Zero brand page.
