Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Hungry Hiker, a bustling walkers' cafe in Keswick, Lake District, needed to replace their old, inefficient chiller. They chose the Zoin Mandy to better display their range of local craft sodas and  homemade cakes, hoping to increase high-margin impulse buys.

"The moment we switched it on, the difference was incredible. The lighting makes everything look so much more appealing, and  customers are definitely helping themselves more often. It’s sleek, quiet, and  just works.".

Robert Green – Owner

Within the first month, The Hungry Hiker reported a 30% increase in chilled drink and  dessert sales, significantly improving their daily takings.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Position the unit on a firm, level surface to ensure the doors align and  it runs quietly.
  • Leave a gap around the back and  sides for ventilation – this is vital for efficiency.
  • Place it away from direct sunlight, radiators, or other heat sources to avoid overworking the motor.
  • Once in position, let it stand for a few hours before plugging in to allow the refrigerant to settle.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down the stainless steel shelves and  interior surfaces weekly with a food-safe cleaner.
  • Always use the pull-down night blind overnight and  during closing hours to conserve energy.
  • Check that the automatic defrost drain is clear and  free from debris.
  • Gently brush any dust from the condenser coils (at the back) every few months to maintain peak performance.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Multideck Chiller

Not sure what fits your business best? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Size and  Footprint

Measure your available space carefully, but also consider aisle width. You want customers to browse comfortably without causing a bottleneck.

Open vs. Doors

Open-front models like this are king for grab-and-go sales. If energy saving is your absolute top priority over impulse buys, a unit with doors might be an alternative.

Lighting is Key

Good lighting isn't just a feature; it's a sales tool. LED lights, like those in the Zoin Mandy, make products look more appealing and  use far less energy than older fluorescent tubes.

Energy Efficiency

Look for features like a night blind and  a modern, eco-friendly refrigerant like R290. They significantly cut down your running costs over the unit's lifetime.

Shelf Flexibility

Your product range will change. Adjustable and  inclinable shelves give you the freedom to display everything from tall bottles to flat cheese packs effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is 'forced air cooling'?

A: It's a system that uses a fan to actively circulate cold air throughout the entire cabinet, ensuring there are no warm spots and  every item is kept at a consistent, safe temperature.

Q: Does this unit need to be plumbed in?

A: No, this is a self-contained unit. The automatic defrost system evaporates the condensation, so you just need to plug it into a standard 230V socket.

Q: What does the night blind actually do?

A: It's a retractable cover you pull down when you're closed. It traps the cold air inside, preventing the chiller from working so hard and  saving a significant amount on your electricity bill.

Q: Can I tilt the shelves?

A: Yes, the shelves are inclinable. This is great for displaying products like drinks or fruit to make them more visible and  easier for customers to grab.

Q: How does the automatic defrost work?

A: The chiller automatically runs a cycle to melt any ice build-up on the cooling components. This maintains efficiency and  saves you the hassle of manual defrosting.

Q: What is Climate Class 3?

A: This means the chiller is designed to operate efficiently in an environment with an ambient temperature of up to 25°C and  60% humidity, which is typical for most UK shops and  cafes.

Q: Is the lighting LED?

A: Yes, it features bright, energy-efficient LED lighting at the top of the unit to illuminate your products without adding heat.

Q: How easy is it to clean?

A: Very. The stainless steel shelves and  base are easy to remove and  wipe down, helping you maintain high hygiene standards with minimal effort.

How Forced Air Cooling Keeps Everything Perfectly Chilled

Ever wondered why some fridges have annoying warm spots? That's what 'forced air cooling' is designed to prevent. Think of it like a convection oven, but for cold. A small, quiet fan constantly circulates the chilled air around the entire cabinet, from top to bottom and  front to back. This means there are no pockets of warmer air, which can happen in standard fridges where the cold air just sits. For an open-front unit like this, it’s essential. It ensures that a bottle of water at the front is just as refreshingly cold as one tucked away at the back, guaranteeing product quality and  food safety for every single item.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Convenience Stores & Newsagents

    Perfect for showcasing a wide range of chilled drinks, milk, and  pre-packaged sandwiches right in your customers' eyeline.

  • Cafés & Sandwich Bars

    An ideal open front multideck fridge to drive impulse sales of bottled water, juices, and  grab-and-go lunch items.

  • Farm Shops & Delicatessens

    Elegantly displays local cheeses, yoghurts, and  charcuterie, keeping them fresh while allowing easy customer access.

  • Gyms & Leisure Centres

    A great addition to reception areas for members to quickly grab protein shakes, smoothies, and  healthy snacks post-workout.
