Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

A popular lunchtime spot in Cardiff, 'The Welsh Rabbit Deli', was struggling with a cramped and  inefficient prep area, relying on multiple small fridges. They upgraded to the Blizzard BCC3EN to centralise their salad and  sandwich preparation right on the line.

"It’s honestly transformed our lunch rush. Everything is right there, perfectly chilled and  organised. We're not running back and  forth to the main fridge anymore. The team is less stressed and  our customers are getting their food quicker."

Owen Davies – Owner, The Welsh Rabbit Deli

The new setup helped them reduce average order time by over 25% during their busiest period between 12pm and  2pm.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Find a well-ventilated spot away from direct sunlight or heat sources like ovens.
  • Ensure the unit is on a firm, level surface; adjust the feet if necessary to prevent rocking.
  • Before plugging in, give the interior a quick wipe-down with a food-safe cleaner.
  • Once on, let the unit get down to its operating temperature for a couple of hours before loading it with produce.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe up any spills immediately to keep the interior hygienic and  prevent stains.
  • Regularly clean the door gaskets with a soft cloth and  warm water to ensure they seal tightly.
  • The condenser filter is easy to remove. Give it a gentle brush or vacuum every month to maintain efficiency.
  • Avoid propping the doors open for long periods to keep the motor from overworking.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Prep Counter

Not sure if this is the right refrigerated prep station for you? Here are a few things to consider.

Measure Twice, Buy Once

Check the unit's dimensions (1368mm wide) against your available space, remembering to leave at least 10cm around the back and  sides for proper air circulation.

Match It to Your Menu

This 3 door refrigerated prep counter is ideal for businesses with a wide range of fresh ingredients. The GN pan top is perfect for complex salads, sandwiches, or pizzas.

Check Your Electrics

Great news! This unit runs off a standard 13 amp plug, so you won't need any expensive electrical work. Just plug it in and  you're ready to go.

Think About Cleaning

The full stainless steel construction and  rounded internal corners on this model are a dream for daily cleaning, helping you meet hygiene standards with less effort.

Factor in Running Costs

Modern refrigerants like R290 are not only better for the environment but are also more energy-efficient, which can help lower your electricity bills over time.

Why the Raised Collar Makes All the Difference

Ever wondered what the 'raised collar' on a commercial prep fridge with raised collar actually does? Think of it as the ultimate organiser for your cold ingredients. It's a recessed well on the worktop that's designed to hold standard Gastronorm (GN) pans, with cold air circulating around them to keep everything at the perfect, food-safe temperature. Instead of having bowls of salad, cheese, and  meats cluttering your limited workspace, you have them neatly arranged and  right at your fingertips. It’s like having a chef's palette for ingredients, transforming your counter from a simple chilled cabinet into a highly efficient, all-in-one workstation.
