Liam Sinclair – Refrigeration Expert View Profile →

  • Pro: Uses R290 refrigerant, which is highly efficient and  much kinder to the planet.
  • Con: At 106kg, it's quite hefty, so you'll need to plan its installation carefully.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

"The Corner Slice," a bustling pizzeria in Cardiff, needed to upgrade its prep station. Their old unit was struggling to keep temperatures consistent during busy weekend services, leading to slower service and  concerns over ingredient quality.

"The Inomak has been brilliant. Everything is uniformly cold, and  having the prep board right on top of the ingredients has made our pizza line so much faster. It's a solid, reliable piece of kit that we now depend on every single day."

Michael Evans – Head Chef

Since installing the Inomak BSV77-HC, The Corner Slice has reduced its average pizza prep time by 30% during peak hours, allowing them to handle more orders without compromising on quality.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure the unit has at least 10cm of space around the back and  sides for proper air circulation.
  • Place it on a firm, level surface to prevent vibration and  ensure the doors close properly.
  • Once in position, let it stand for at least 4 hours before plugging it in to allow the refrigerant to settle.
  • Wipe down all interior surfaces with a food-safe cleaner before loading it with produce.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe up any spills immediately and  clean the interior surfaces and  door seals weekly.
  • The removable magnetic door gaskets and  clip-on guides make deep cleaning much simpler.
  • Every month, check and  clean the condenser coils to remove dust build-up, which helps the unit run efficiently.
  • Avoid overloading the shelves to ensure cold air can circulate freely around all your ingredients.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Prep Counter

Not sure which model is the perfect fit for your kitchen? Here are a few things to consider when choosing a refrigerated prep counter with cutting board.

Size vs. Space

Measure your available space carefully, but also think about your required capacity. A larger unit is great, but only if it fits and  you can keep it stocked.

Gastronorm Compatibility

Check if the unit is compatible with the standard Gastronorm (GN) pans you already use. This makes swapping containers between appliances a breeze.

Material Matters

Look for high-grade stainless steel like AISI 304. It costs more upfront but resists rust and  dents, lasting far longer in a tough kitchen environment.

Cooling System

Forced air (or fan-assisted) cooling provides more consistent temperatures than static cooling, which is vital for keeping high-risk foods safe.

Ease of Cleaning

Features like removable gaskets, clip-on shelf guides, and  rounded internal corners might seem small, but they save a huge amount of time and  effort during daily cleaning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is AISI 304 stainless steel and  why is it important?

A: It's a high-grade, food-safe stainless steel known for its excellent corrosion resistance and  durability. It's built to withstand the tough, humid environment of a commercial kitchen without rusting.

Q: What size Gastronorm pans can I use in this saladette?

A: This unit is designed to hold GN1/1 size pans in its under-counter fridge section. The top well accepts various GN pan configurations up to a maximum depth of 150mm (pans not included).

Q: Is the cutting board removable for cleaning?

A: Yes, the polyethylene cutting board is designed to be easily removed for thorough cleaning and  sanitising, which is essential for good kitchen hygiene.

Q: How does the automatic defrost function work?

A: The system automatically heats the cooling element for a short period to melt any ice build-up, preventing the evaporator from freezing over and  ensuring the fridge runs efficiently without you needing to do it manually.

Q: What does 'Climate Class 4' mean?

A: This is a rating that indicates the ambient temperature conditions the unit is designed to operate in effectively. Climate Class 4 is for professional kitchens, rated for performance in conditions up to 30°C and  55% humidity.

Q: Does the unit need to be plumbed in for drainage?

A: No, this model features an automatic evaporation system for condensate water. The water from the defrost cycle is collected in a tray and  evaporated by the heat from the compressor, so no plumbing is required.

Q: How often should I clean the condenser coils?

A: For optimal performance and  energy efficiency, it's best to check and  gently clean the condenser coils (usually at the back or underneath) at least once a month to remove any dust and  debris.

Q: Can I store both raw meat and  ready-to-eat salad ingredients?

A: Yes, but it's crucial to follow food safety guidelines. Always store raw meat on lower shelves in sealed containers to prevent any cross-contamination with ready-to-eat foods stored above.

How Forced Air Cooling Keeps Your Ingredients Fresher, Longer

Ever had a domestic fridge where the stuff at the back is frozen solid but the salad in the door is lukewarm? That's static cooling. A commercial saladette fridge with forced air circulation is a whole different ball game. Think of it like a convection oven, but for cold air. A small, powerful fan constantly circulates the chilled air around the entire cabinet.

This simple but vital technology ensures that there are no warmer or colder pockets inside. Every single tomato, slice of cheese, and  piece of lettuce is held at the exact same, safe temperature, no matter where it's placed. This means longer shelf life for your ingredients, better food safety, and  peace of mind that everything you serve is as fresh as it can possibly be.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Sandwich Bars & Delis

    Perfect for assembling fresh sandwiches and  wraps, keeping fillings crisp and  cool during the busy lunch period.

  • Pizzerias

    An ideal station for prepping pizzas, with easy access to chilled toppings right under the prep board.

  • Busy Cafes

    Streamlines the preparation of salads, bagels, and  paninis, significantly speeding up your food service.

  • Catering Companies

    A reliable and  mobile-friendly prep hub for event kitchens, ensuring food safety and  quality on the go.
