Commercial Counter Door Freezer | 3 Door Under Counter Freezer | 417 Litre Capacity with Upstand | Polar DL917

Q: Can I put hot food directly into the freezer?

A: It's always best practice to cool food to room temperature before placing it in any freezer. This prevents the unit from working overtime and  protects other food already inside.

Q: What is an 'upstand'?

A: The upstand is the raised lip at the back of the worktop. It's a handy feature that prevents equipment, ingredients, and  spills from falling down the gap between the unit and  the wall.

Q: How noisy is this freezer?

A: As a commercial unit with fan-assisted cooling, it will produce more sound than a domestic freezer. However, it's designed for a professional kitchen environment where its noise level is considered standard.

Q: Are the shelves adjustable?

A: Yes, this model comes with three sturdy, adjustable shelves, allowing you to customise the internal layout to suit different sized products.

Q: Is the stainless steel food-safe?

A: Absolutely. The Polar DL917 uses commercial-grade stainless steel for both the interior and  exterior, which is hygienic, durable, and  the industry standard for food preparation areas.

Q: What does 'self-closing doors' mean?

A: The doors are hinged in a way that they will automatically pull themselves shut if left slightly ajar. This is a great energy-saving feature that prevents temperature loss.

Q: What is Climate Class 4?

A: This is an industry rating that means the appliance is designed to operate effectively in an environment with an ambient temperature of up to 32°C and  40% relative humidity.

Q: Does the automatic defrost require any manual intervention?

A: The defrost cycle is fully automatic. The freezer will periodically heat the cooling element to melt any ice, and  the water evaporates. You just need to ensure the unit is kept clean.
