Types of Kegerators

Freestanding: Freestanding kegerators don't need to be installed above or below a countertop and can be placed anywhere. These are the most common type of kegerator and very budget-friendly. They often feature wheels or casters for easy transportation and can be easily moved from one room to another. Because the vent is located at the back of the unit, these kegerators require a few inches of clearance away from the wall to ensure proper ventilation.

Undercounter: Undercounter kegerators are installed beneath a counter for a built-in look, which makes them a practical addition to a home bar. These units have front ventilation so that they can be placed against a wall and beneath a counter, and the draft tower can be built into the countertop for a seamless finish.

Countertop: As the smallest and most affordable option, countertop kegerators are the best choice if you have limited space or only need to serve a few pints. They can be placed on any flat surface, such as a countertop or home bar. Though this type of kegerator typically only fits a mini keg, it can be a great way to see if a kegerator is a good investment for your home.

Conversion Kit: Conversion kits come with all of the elements to convert an existing refrigerator into a kegerator. These kits include a carbon dioxide tank, draft tower, pressure regulator, coupler, and all the hardware needed for assembly.
