Buyers Guide For Reach-In Refrigeration and Freezing
Jean's Restaurant Supply Buyer's Guide Reach-In Refrigerators and Freezers |
Choosing the right type of refrigeration
is a very critical element in your choice of proper restaurant supplies.
Aside from your cooking and prep line, no other peice of equipment will
get the most use than your reach-in refrigerators/freezers. This is what
is going to keep your product fresh and readily available to your kitchen.
At Jean's Restaurant Supply we want to make sure you consider these important
factors when purchasing a reach in refrigerator or freezer. |
|
- Make sure you have the space to accomodate your reach-in refrigerator
or freezer. Always account for doorways and corridors, heighth
clearances, and any obstruction and verify you will be able to
get the refrigerator where you need it to go. Our specifications
will show you how large each unit is so plan ahead. Sometimes
only a few inches makes a huge difference. If you are ever in
doubt consult with the Jean's Restaurant Supply Design
Team and we will help you in sizing up and positioning your
equipment.
- Check your door swings. Consider what will be next to your reach-in
refrigerator/freezer and make sure you will have adequate room
to open it comfortably without causing any congestion. Be aware
of high traffic locations and how they affect the placement of
your refrigerator.
- Know what products and how much of them you will store inside
of the unit. For some kitchens a single or double door reach in
will do just fine. For others a 3 door would be the ideal choice.
The True T-72 reach in for example holds 72 cubic feet with 9
shelves.
- Casters on reach-in refrigerators and reach-in freezers are critical.
They allow for easier sanitation and make your equipment much
easier to move when needed. Health inspectors will take note of this.
- Know what products will need to be frozen and which will need
to maintain constant refrigeration. This will help you in deciding
which products will go into your reach-ins. This will ultimately
dictate what size you will need. For certain operations, more
freezing room is need than refrigeration
