  • Cons: At 108kg, you'll definitely need two people for installation and  positioning.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Corner Slice Pizzeria in Liverpool needed to upgrade their prep area. Their old unit struggled to keep temperatures consistent during busy shifts, and  they lacked a dedicated, cool surface for stretching their pizza dough.

"This commercial double door counter fridge has been a fantastic addition. The marble top is brilliant for our dough, and  the refrigeration is spot on, even when we're flat out. It's made our prep line so much more efficient."

Marco Bellini – Owner

The pizzeria saw a measurable outcome, noting a 30% faster prep time during peak evening service.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Position the unit in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight or heat sources like ovens.
  • Use the sturdy adjustable feet to ensure the fridge is perfectly level on the floor.
  • Once in position, leave it to stand for at least 4 hours before plugging it in to let the refrigerant settle.
  • Allow the fridge to reach its target temperature before you start loading it with stock.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down the marble top and  door seals daily with a soft cloth and  mild detergent.
  • Clean the interior surfaces and  adjustable shelves weekly to maintain hygiene.
  • Every month, check the condenser coils for dust build-up and  gently vacuum them clean for efficiency.
  • Ensure the automatic defrost drain hole is clear of any food debris to prevent blockages.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Counter Fridge

Not sure which prep counter is the perfect fit for your kitchen? No worries, here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Space & Footprint

Measure your space carefully, remembering to leave room at the back and  sides for ventilation – it's crucial for performance!

Worktop Material

A marble top is a baker's best friend, while stainless steel is the ultimate durable all-rounder. Choose what best suits your menu.

Capacity & Layout

Think about what you'll store. Gastronorm (GN) compatibility is a huge plus for easily swapping pans between appliances.

Kitchen Environment

Check the 'Climate Class'. This tells you the maximum room temperature the fridge can handle while still working efficiently.

Energy Efficiency

Look at the energy rating. A more efficient unit might cost a little more initially but will save you money on your electricity bills.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the main benefit of the marble worktop?

A: Marble naturally stays cooler than steel, making it the ideal surface for working with temperature-sensitive foods like pastry, dough, and  chocolate without them sticking or melting.

Q: Can this fridge hold standard Gastronorm pans?

A: Yes, it's designed to hold up to six 1/1 GN pans (100mm deep), which are sold separately. This makes it easy to transfer ingredients around the kitchen.

Q: How does the automatic defrost feature work?

A: The fridge automatically runs a short cycle to gently heat the cooling elements, melting any ice that has formed. This ensures it always runs efficiently without you having to manually defrost it.

Q: What does 'Climate Class 4' mean for my kitchen?

A: It means this appliance is designed to perform efficiently in a professional kitchen environment with an ambient room temperature of up to 32°C.

Q: Are the shelves inside adjustable?

A: Yes, the two included shelves can be moved to different heights, allowing you to customise the storage space to fit larger bottles or containers.

Q: Is the 13A plug already fitted?

A: Yes, the Polar CL108 comes with a standard 13A plug fitted, so you can plug it in and  get started straight away.

Q: What is the actual usable storage space?

A: While the gross capacity is 240 litres, the net usable capacity, which accounts for shelves and  internal components, is a very practical 201 litres.

Q: Do the doors stay open if I need them to?

A: The doors are self-closing to save energy, but they will typically stay open past 90 degrees to allow for easy loading and  unloading of stock.

How Fan-Assisted Cooling Protects Your Stock

Ever noticed how some fridges have cold spots and  warmer spots? That's often down to 'static' cooling, where the cold air isn't moved around. This Polar CL108 fridge uses fan-assisted cooling, which is a bit like having a gentle breeze constantly circulating inside. When you open the door and  warm air rushes in, the fan quickly distributes the cold air to bring the temperature back down to a safe level, fast. This means every item, from the pot of mayonnaise at the front to the salad at the back, stays at a consistent, safe temperature. It's a simple feature that makes a massive difference to food safety and  quality in a busy kitchen environment.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Artisan Bakeries: Use the cool marble top counter fridge to keep pastry perfect while storing fillings below.
  • Pizzerias: Ideal for prepping dough and  keeping a wide range of fresh toppings organised and  chilled.
  • Busy Cafés: An excellent station for streamlining sandwich and  salad prep with ingredients at your fingertips.
  • Dessert Parlours & Chocolatiers: The perfect surface for delicate chocolate work and  assembling chilled desserts with precision.
