Commercial Freezers Burley ID

Many businesses need commercial freezers. Any Burley business that deals with large amounts of frozen food products benefits immensely from the addition of a commercial freezer. The basic use of commercial freezers is, of course, to keep food frozen so that it is safe to eat when your customers purchase it. However, commercial freezers are different from home designs because they are designed to keep large quantities of food frozen for extended periods of time.

Commercial freezers can be huge rooms that you can walk into, or they can be smaller units placed in the back of a restaurant. Most often you will find these freezers in businesses around Burley that are related to the food service industry, such as caterers, restaurants, and banquet halls. However, many Burley grocery stores use them, as well as schools with a hot lunch program, and even research facilities that need to keep their specimens frozen for further research.

While there is a huge need around Burley for commercial freezers, there are so many different types that some business owners who need to purchase one find it confusing. You can choose from walk-in freezers to stand alone models. You can find commercial freezers that look like home models, or huge beasts that take up entire rooms in a store. Deciding what you need for your business’s specific needs is they key to choosing the right freezer.

Most commercial freezers, no matter what their size, are made of the same main components. First the freezer will be housed in a cabinet. This is usually made out of stainless steel, which can easily stand up to the daily use without scratching or denting. The doors are attached to the cabinet and need to have industrial strength hinges. Many models feature latches that can lock, and all have tight seals with double gaskets.

The floor of the commercial freezer is also important. Many models feature an aluminum floor. Aluminum is a strong material, but incredibly lightweight. It can hold around six hundred pounds per square foot of space. The most important aspect of a commercial freezer is the refrigeration system. This keeps the food inside the unit at the proper temperature. It includes a compressor, condenser, and evaporator. The compressor provides the refrigerant to the unit, which flows into the condenser. In the evaporator, the refrigerant is changed from liquid to gas, creating a cooling effect. And to maintain the temperature inside the freezer the entire unit is wrapped in insulation. This also limits the noise from the refrigeration motor.

If your freezer is not a built-in unit it will likely come with wheels. This is nice if you want to be able to move it from one location to another within your store in Burley. However, you want to have wheels that will lock into place when you are not moving the freezer.

One type of commercial freezer is a chest freezer. Chest freezers are those freezers that users open from the top. They are able to keep food frozen for many months, and in the home these freezers are sometimes called a “deep freeze.” They have many uses for commercial businesses around Burley.

Some businesses, such as food service businesses and caterers, will use a chest freezer to store their frozen goods. They might choose a freezer that has baskets inside to help them organize their food. The inside of a chest freezer generally has more capacity than upright freezers.

In a retail location in Burley where food is being sold to customers, upright freezers can be used to store product and display it for sale. These freezers will have sliding glass tops that the customer opens when they want to select a product. When not open, the glass doors allow the customers to see what is inside the freezer. This is ideal for stores that have a large quantity of food on display, but not much variety. You can store many frozen pizzas one on top of the other inside a chest freezer, and your customers can take the ones on the top.

Some chest freezers are completely open on top. While this is not the most energy efficient way to store food, it does successfully keep the food cold. One benefit of a commercial freezer with an open top is that customers have instant access to the food.

Over all, chest freezers are the most energy efficient commercial freezers. They use far less electricity to run than upright freezers. They do require a significant amount of floor space, as they cannot be too tall if customers are going to be able to access them.
