Walk-in refrigerators are very large, cold, insulated, and enclosed spaces. They are used to store and sometimes display refrigerated food or other perishable goods that must be kept in a temperature-controlled environment. These massive machines are used by the food sales and service industries. They are also ideal for vaccine storage. Some of the latest walk-in refrigerators come with the following features:

 Alarms

Today’s cutting-edge walk-in fridges are equipped with walk-in monitoring systems along with audio and visual temperature alarm set points. They will let you know if the temperature has increased or decreased from its pre-set level so you can take immediate remedial action to protect your products.

Energy Efficient Walk-Ins

Today’s walk-ins are equipped with plenty of energy-efficiency refrigerator features to minimize electricity bills. This is particularly important since your walk-in would be working 24/7. Heavy-duty solid walls and doors are an absolute must since they offer better insulation and keep the heat out. Machines with inverter compressors are now available, and are a sound long-term investment for your restaurant or any other business that involves a climate-controlled environment.
