Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

'The Salty Squid', a bustling fish and  chip shop in Whitby, needed a refrigeration upgrade to cope with their high turnover of fresh fish and  potatoes before the peak summer season.

"Our old fridge just couldn't keep up on a busy Friday. This Polar G592 holds temperature perfectly, even when we're in and  out of it constantly. The space is fantastic, and  it means our stock is always in prime condition."

Liam Hudson – Owner, The Salty Squid

The new unit allowed them to increase their bulk purchasing of fresh ingredients, reducing daily supplier runs and  improving overall kitchen workflow efficiency.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Position the unit on a flat, level surface. You can lock the castors to keep it steady.
  • Leave a gap of at least 20cm around the unit for ventilation – this is crucial for performance!
  • Once in place, let the fridge stand for a few hours before plugging it in to let the refrigerant oils settle.
  • Give the interior a quick wipe down with a food-safe cleaner before you start loading it up.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down the door seals weekly to ensure they're clean and  creating a tight seal.
  • Check and  clean the condenser coil and  filter every month or so – a dusty coil makes the fridge work harder.
  • Regularly wipe up any spills inside to prevent odours and  maintain hygiene.
  • Even with auto-defrost, it's good practice to check for any ice build-up, especially in humid kitchens.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Upright Fridge

Not sure which commercial fridge is the perfect fit for your space? Here are a few pointers to help you make a cracking choice.

Capacity vs. Footprint

Check the external dimensions will fit your kitchen layout, but also pay close attention to the net usable capacity to ensure it meets your storage needs.

Energy Efficiency

An energy-efficient fridge can save you a surprising amount on your electricity bills over its lifetime. Look for the energy rating (A is best) to compare models.

Climate Class

This tells you the maximum ambient room temperature the fridge can work in effectively. A Class 4 or 5 is ideal for most busy, hot professional kitchens.

Material Matters

A stainless steel exterior is not just for looks; it’s durable, rust-resistant, and  far easier to keep clean and  hygienic than other materials.

GN Compatibility

If your kitchen uses Gastronorm pans, choosing a GN-compatible fridge will make your workflow seamless, letting you move pans from oven to fridge with no fuss.

Why Fan-Assisted Cooling Makes All the Difference

Ever wondered why a commercial fridge cools down so much faster than your one at home? The secret is often fan-assisted cooling. Instead of just letting cold air sit and  settle (known as static cooling), this system uses a fan to actively circulate chilled air throughout the entire cabinet, from top to bottom.

Think of it like this: on a still, hot day, you feel warm. But the moment a breeze picks up, you cool down instantly. The fan in the Polar G592 fridge acts like that breeze. When your team opens the door to grab ingredients during a busy service, warm air rushes in. The fan immediately gets to work, pushing cold air back into every corner, dropping the temperature back to the safe zone in moments. This rapid recovery is vital for keeping food fresher for longer and  meeting food safety standards.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Busy Restaurants: A perfect back-of-house workhorse for keeping bulk produce and  prepped ingredients consistently chilled and  accessible.
  • Village Pubs & Inns: Ideal for storing everything from kegs and  bottled drinks to desserts and  fresh food supplies.
  • Local Cafés & Bakeries: The large capacity upright fridge design is great for holding dairy, fillings, and  large batches of dough.
  • Event Caterers: A reliable, mobile unit that can be easily positioned in prep kitchens for large-scale event catering.
