  • A Real Unit: Its 145kg weight means you'll need two people for final positioning.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The team at 'The Severn Bite', a busy riverside bistro in Shrewsbury, needed to replace their ageing freezer which was struggling to keep up during peak summer months. They chose the Inomak CBP172 for its robust build and  generous capacity.

"The Inomak has been absolutely solid. It holds temperature without a single issue, even when we're constantly opening the door during a frantic Saturday service. Our stock is safer, and  our kitchen runs that much smoother now."

Robert Davies – Head Chef

The upgrade has completely eliminated worries about temperature fluctuations, allowing them to confidently increase their stock holding of frozen goods by 30%.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Position the freezer on a firm, level surface to ensure the door seals correctly.
  • Leave a gap of at least 10cm around the sides and  back for proper air circulation.
  • Once in place, let the unit stand for at least 4 hours before plugging it in to allow the refrigerant to settle.
  • Plug directly into a suitable 13 amp mains socket – avoid using extension leads.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe the magnetic door gasket weekly with a damp cloth to ensure a tight seal.
  • Clean the interior regularly with a food-safe sanitiser to maintain hygiene.
  • Gently brush any dust or debris from the condenser coils every few months to maintain efficiency.
  • Check the digital temperature display daily to ensure it's operating correctly.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Upright Freezer

Not sure which freezer is the perfect fit for your business? Here are a few key things to consider to make sure you get it right first time.

Capacity vs. Footprint

Make sure you measure your space! A large capacity is great, but it needs to fit comfortably in your kitchen with enough room for ventilation.

Gastronorm (GN) Compatibility

If you use GN pans, choosing a GN-compatible freezer like this 2/1 gastronorm freezer will make your kitchen life so much simpler.

Climate Class Matters

A freezer's Climate Class tells you the maximum room temperature it can work in efficiently. Class 5 is designed for the hottest, busiest professional kitchens.

Check the Refrigerant

Modern refrigerants like R290 are not only more environmentally friendly, but they are also more energy-efficient, saving you money on your electricity bills.

Built to Endure

Look for high-grade stainless steel (AISI 304 is the industry standard) for durability, hygiene, and  resistance to rust and  corrosion.

Ease of Cleaning

Features like removable gaskets, clip-on shelf guides, and  smooth stainless steel interiors will save your team valuable cleaning time.

How Forced Air Circulation Protects Your Stock

Ever found icy patches on food at the back of a freezer, while items near the door feel slightly less frozen? That’s down to uneven cooling. Think of a standard freezer like a room without air-con on a hot day – you get warm and  cool spots. This Inomak freezer uses 'forced air circulation', which is like having a perfectly calibrated fan system inside. It constantly pushes cold air all around the cabinet, from top to bottom and  front to back. This means every single item is held at a consistent, safe temperature, no matter where it’s placed. It also helps the freezer get back down to temperature much faster after you’ve had the door open, which is critical for food safety and  quality during a busy service.

Who Should Buy This?

    An ideal choice for storing bulk produce, prepped meals, and  desserts, ensuring you're always ready for service.
