Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The team at 'The Daily Grind', a bustling city-centre café in Leeds, needed to replace their old, inefficient chiller. Their goal was to create a more inviting display for their premium sandwiches and cold-brew coffees, which were getting lost in the shadows of their previous unit.
"Honestly, the difference is night and day. The lighting is superb and makes everything look so much more appealing. We’ve had customers comment on how fresh everything looks, and they're definitely picking up more items on their way to the till."
Robert Hughes – Café Manager
Since installing the Infrico commercial open front display fridge, The Daily Grind has seen a 25% increase in sales of their chilled grab-and-go items.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- First things first, make sure the floor where it's going is perfectly level and can handle the unit's 194kg weight.
- Always leave a bit of breathing room around the sides and back for proper air circulation – this is key for efficiency.
- Plug it directly into a standard 13 amp socket. It’s best to avoid using extension leads for powerful appliances like this.
- Once in position, let it stand for at least 4 hours before switching it on. This allows the refrigerant gas to settle.
Keeping It Going
- Give the stainless steel surfaces a daily wipe-down with a soft, damp cloth and a suitable food-safe cleaner.
- Make a habit of pulling down the night blind every single evening. It’s a simple step that saves a surprising amount of energy.
- About once a month, check the condenser coils for dust build-up and gently vacuum them to keep the unit running efficiently.
- Ensure products don't block the internal air vents, as this can lead to uneven cooling and temperature fluctuations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does 'Climate Class 4' mean?
A: It means this refrigerated open front merchandiser is designed to work efficiently in ambient conditions up to 30°C and 55% relative humidity, which covers most indoor commercial environments in the UK.
Q: Is the night blind difficult to use?
A: Not at all! It's a simple, manual pull-down blind that hooks into place at the bottom. It takes just a few seconds to operate at the end of the day.
Q: What is R290 refrigerant?
A: R290 (Propane) is a natural, highly efficient, and eco-friendly refrigerant. It has a very low Global Warming Potential (GWP), making it a much greener choice than older refrigerants.
Q: Can I customise the colour?
A: Yes, this model comes with a choice of different colour trim decor finishes, allowing you to match it to your brand's aesthetic.
Q: How do I clean the AISI 304 stainless steel?
A: Simply use a soft cloth with warm water and a mild detergent, or a specialised stainless steel cleaner. Always wipe in the direction of the grain to avoid streaks.
Q: What are the benefits of the LED lighting?
A: LED lights are incredibly energy-efficient, have a very long lifespan, and they produce very little heat, so they won't interfere with the fridge's cooling performance.
Q: Does this unit need to be connected to a drain?
A: Typically, units like this have an automatic condensate evaporation system, meaning no permanent drain is required. However, always refer to the manufacturer's manual for specific instructions.
Q: What does 'multiplexible' allow me to do?
A: It allows you to join two or more of these units together side-by-side to create one long, continuous display with a professional, seamless look.
