Importance of Reliable Refrigeration
The Domestic Fridge has been around now for about 100 years in one form or another. Reliable refrigeration is not only important in residential settings, but also is a crucial part of running and operating a successful restaurant or business. If food is not kept at the correct temperatures, you run the risk of food borne illness, which can be extremely detrimental to the health of your customers and success of your business. With that being said, let’s look at a few reliable and affordable reach-in refrigeration options that are a must have when running and operating a successful foodservice business.
One Door Vs. Two Door Reach-In, what size do you need?
The first question you’re going to want to ask yourself when purchasing a reach-in refrigerator is, how much refrigerated space do you need? Reach-in refrigerators are measured by interior storage size and by external dimensions, both should be taken into consideration when purchasing a new unit. Interior space will determine how much you can fit into the fridge, while the exterior dimensions will allow you to determine how much space is needed for the fridge to fit in your kitchen.
Depending on the size of your establishment and the operational volume will determine if a one door or two door refrigerator is best for you. One door reach-in refrigerators are typically best for small kitchens, where space is limited. A two-door reach-in, on the other hand, is ideal for establishments that have a large kitchen, operate at a high capacity, and require a large unit to store their refrigerated goods.
