Kegco 24" Wide Single Tap Stainless Steel Commercial Built-In Kegerator HK38BSC-1
Great Reasons To Buy From Us:
The Kegco Commercial Undercounter Kegerator (HK38BSC-1) is the best single faucet commercial beer dispenser on the market. It comes with an ETL rating and is designed to withstand busy environments including your bar, tasting room, restaurant, and commercial kitchen.
At 3200 BTUs, it boasts the most powerful compressor in its class, delivering unprecedented cooling for faster recovery and temperature pulldown. The kegerator’s wide 23-59 F temperature range gives you the option to use this beverage cooler to serve cold beer, coffee, kombucha, or even wine!
It comes with a versatile design, easy-to-use digital controls, and a high-quality dispense system with the very best commercial-grade components, every detail of this keg cooler has been very carefully designed to make it easier than ever to serve your customers' delicious beverages.
A premium kegerator should have only the highest quality components, so Kegco has included a premium direct draw kit with the HK38BSC-1 that has been specially designed to give you the most convenient and reliable draft beer parts at an unbeatable value.
Built-in Or Freestanding Use
The front-venting design allows you to build this kegerator into cabinetry for a seamless look that is easy to maintain and provides more floor space. A stainless steel guard rail is included to prevent glasses or mugs from sliding off the top in freestanding applications.
Digital Temperature Display
Easily adjust and view the set temperature, toggle between Celsius and Fahrenheit, or turn the interior light on and off with the push of a button. The controls can be accessed effortlessly at the front of the cabinet, out of the way of the dispensing system.
Stainless Steel Interior
The beautiful stainless steel interior is more durable than the plastic liner found in many competing models and easy to clean. Enough floor space is provided to house a full-size keg, two-quarter slim kegs, or up to three 5 gallon kegs for a variety of configurations.
Converts to a Refrigerator
Two adjustable wire shelves are included, allowing you to convert these beer dispensers into refrigerators when you are in need of extra cold storage. Shelf adjustment is easily done in 1/2" increments so you can space them according to your needs
Locking Stainless Steel Door
The attractive stainless steel door includes a lock to keep the contents secure. Both a towel bar and a curved handle are provided, so you can choose which option best matches your furnishings. A door alarm will sound if the door is left open too long.
Air Cooled Tower Prevents Foam
Forced air refrigeration ensures that cold air is evenly distributed throughout the cabinet so there are no hot spots. Cold air is directed into the beer tower, ensuring that the lines are cool all the way up to the faucet so there's less foam between pours.
Product Features:
- Includes a brand new 5 lb. Aluminum CO2 Tank with Electric Red Epoxy Finish
- This tank is produced from high strength aluminum alloy 6061-T6, a highly corrosion-resistant material. It features an eye-catching glossy powder-coated epoxy finish in electric red that acts as an extra layer of protection against corrosion and wear. The service pressure is up to 1800 PSI/124 BAR with a test pressure of 3000 PSI/207 BAR. These cylinders are stamped with the required U.S. Department of Transportation and Transport Canada Markings. The 320 valves are CGA approved and have a male thread for CO2 regulators. An average fill is good for 5-6 kegs depending upon your fill.
- Includes Commercial Grade Double Gauge CO2 Regulator
- Designed to deliver reliable peak performance even in demanding commercial environments, this regulator works with any CO2 tank with a CGA-320 valve and measures PSI as well as the volume of the CO2 gas in the cylinder. It has a pressure release valve and a T-style adjustment valve that can be easily adjusted by hand.
- Includes 5 feet of 5/16" I.D. Blue Air Line Assembly with 2 Worm Drive Clamps
- This standard length 5 foot 5/16" I.D. blue air/CO2 tubing is made of thermoplastic vinyl hose (Super Vinyl). This tubing will not rot, swell, or dry out, and is unaffected by normal cleaning compounds. The air line assembly comes with two durable stainless steel worm-drive clamps.
- Includes a D system lever handle keg coupler that can tap all domestic kegs
- This commercial grade lever handle keg coupler works with all American "D" system Sankey kegs. It features a 55-psi pressure relief valve and a nickel-plated forged brass body. To tap a keg, simply pull out and then down on the lever handle.
- Includes a 14.5" Tall, 3" Diameter Polished Stainless Steel Draft Tower with a Perlick 630SS Faucet
- This NSF-approved tower is a 3" diameter single faucet metal draft tower made of polished stainless steel and includes 5 feet of 3/16" I.D. clear beer tubing. The extra tall 14.5" height makes it easier to fill growlers and tall pint glasses. It features a Perlick 630SS faucet with an innovative design that won't stick, making it the most sanitary and reliable faucet available. The faucet, shank, and fittings are all made of stainless steel. This tower is mounted using the gasket and four screws that are included.
- All dispensing accessories are UL recognized components
- Converts into a refrigerator using 2 full-width shelves that can be adjusted in 1/2" increments
- Large enough to hold most full-size kegs, including Coors and Miller. Interior height is a limitation, so kegs that are taller than the standard half-barrel (23.25") may not fit with the keg coupler installed. We have run into this issue with certain German kegs along with the M system coupler, but most major brands in D and S System kegs will not be an issue.
- Holds (1) full-size keg, (2) quarter slim kegs, (3) 5-gallon commercial kegs, or (3) 5-gallon homebrew kegs)
- PLEASE NOTE: Will not hold 50L European kegs
- Sleek black cabinet with a stylish stainless steel door
- Digital temperature control keeps the temperature between 23-59 degrees Fahrenheit
- Maximum Ambient Temperature: 100 degrees Fahrenheit
- Minimum Ambient Temperature: The lowest temperature you want to store your kegs at. The unit does not have a heater, so if the ambient temperature is lower than the set temperature, the internal temperature will match the external temperature.
- A perfect option for dispensing beer, soda, kombucha, wine or cold brew coffee
- Includes easy-roll casters for convenient mobility
- Stainless steel guard rail helps prevent mugs and glasses from sliding off
- Stainless steel interior is more durable than the plastic liner found in most kegerators
- Plugs into a standard home outlet
- ETL listed for commercial use

Customer Reviews
**Bought from KegCo/BeverageFactory Directly**
I’ll start by saying I wanted to love this unit—and did love this unit—until it would not cool anymore. I’ve made it the centerpiece of my bar area.
But the unit did not even last 2 years. The unit will not cool below ~46 degrees. I expected a lot more from a unit that cost $2,000. I just bought three new 1/6 kegs for my Super Bowl party when the unit stopped working, and we were forced to drink warm/foamy beer. I essentially lost over $300 worth of beer because of this defect.
I reached out to KegCo/Beverage Factory (related entities), and they informed me that since the unit is out of warranty, they would not replace the unit. Kegco/Beverage Factory offered me two options: (1) hire a technician (at my own expense) to look at and diagnose the problem, and if it is the compressor, they will send me a new compressor (where I would have to cover the expense of installation); or (2) purchase a new cabinet only at a discounted rate of $500. I was also informed that these units “should” last a minimum of five years, but the company clearly does not stand by its products.
I was surprised that the unit failed before even hitting the two-year mark after reading so many positive reviews on Beverage Factory’s website (one of the reasons I purchased the unit over competitor products).
So I started investigating and found this is an issue others have had as well. It appears to be a refrigerant leak, though I cannot say for certain. Based on these reviews, and my own experience with KegCo/Beverage Factory, I would NOT recommend purchasing this kegerator.
I copy these reviews for your reference:
Amazon Reviews:
David Berman, “Less than perfect handling and accessory pack. Good Company, faulty product (August 7, 2019): “Unfortunately, exactly one year and a month from purchase it slowly got worse and worse at maintaining cool and ran excessively. Eventually, the kegerator couldnt hold 45 degrees…”
Brian, “Refrigeration Failed after 2 years” (November 3, 2022): “Unit Worked well and was very good for 2 years. Then the refrigerator stopped getting cold.”
moserada, “Too expensive for what you get” (April 7, 2020): “…Then, 13 months later, the refrigeration unit does not work. Can’t get below 45 degrees.”
Laura Flanagan, “Leaks, does not work, got replacement parts – still does not work” (June 26, 2021):
A. Murray, “Fantastic fit and finish, but died after 15 months”: “ORIGINAL REVIEW: …the unit stopped cooling at about 15 months ….2ND UPDATE SUMMER 2022: …right on cue at about the year-and-a-half mark, the replacement unit started failing to maintain its temperature…”
emma123, “Doesn’t maintain a temperature below 48 or so (June 20, 2022): “It worked great for about two years then simply stopped cooling below the mid to high 40's F.”
Sarah L., “Buyer beware”: “Updated Review 2022: worked great for a year and then literally, one week after the 1 year manufacturer warranty ended, it failed to cool below 64 degrees.”
Reddit Reviews:
u/TDL311, “Kegco Not Cooling” (3 years ago): “I have a 2 year old Kegco that’s died on me and is out of warranty. It only cools to about 60 degrees and seems to show the defrost light on while it’s cooling and almost perpetually.”

u/Positive_Ad6825, “KegCo HK-38 not colling below 42% (3 months ago): “I have a Kegco HK-38-BS that is just out of warranty. It had been working just fine until recently, when the digital temp display shows a temp of 42%, and wont' get any colder.”

(4/12/2022): “I bought an HK38 triple-tap under counter kegerator in 2020 - We installed it in August 2020 and by Feb 2022 (just 18 monhs) after purchase, it stopped cooling. … If I had this thing 2 plus yrs "maybe", but 18 months and it broke. I'd be very cautious as to what you buy from them.”
Mike T. (11/12/2021): “Since receiving my kegerator system I have had 2 Kegco refrigerator units fail in under 2 years each. Both units stopped cooling after about a year and a half of service.”
Aman M. (4/7/2020): “Purchased a dual tap kegerator late 2018. … Then, 13 months later, the refrigeration unit (after defrost/cleaning) decided it didn't want to get below 45 degrees.”
