- Cons: Comes with two shelves, so you might need more for complex storage arrangements.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The team at 'The Severn Bite', a busy riverside café in Shrewsbury, needed to replace an old, unreliable under-counter fridge that was struggling to keep temperature during busy summer days. They chose the Blizzard BCC2 for its compact size and GN1/1 compatibility.
"We needed something that could keep up with our lunch rushes without taking up loads of space. The Blizzard slotted in perfectly, and the top gives us an extra prep area. It's been rock solid since day one, and our ingredients are always perfectly chilled."
Ben Carter – Head Chef
The consistent temperature control has reduced their weekly dairy and fresh produce spoilage by over 10%.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Position the unit on a flat, stable surface, using the adjustable feet to get it perfectly level.
- Leave at least 10cm of space around the back and sides for good air circulation. This is crucial for performance.
- Let the fridge stand upright for at least 4 hours before plugging it in to allow the refrigerant gases to settle.
- Once switched on, let it get down to the correct temperature before you start loading it with food.
Keeping It Going
- Wipe down the interior surfaces and door seals weekly with a food-safe cleaner and a soft cloth.
- Slide out and clean the condenser filter at least once a month. This is the single best thing you can do for its health!
- Check the door gaskets regularly to make sure they are creating a tight seal when closed.
- Avoid placing very hot food directly into the fridge, as this makes the compressor work overtime.

Explore more from BlizzardWhy a Clean Condenser Filter is Your Fridge's Best Friend
Ever wondered about that little grille on your fridge? That's covering the condenser, and the 'Easily Removable Condenser Filter' on the Blizzard BCC2 is a simple feature that makes a massive difference. Think of the condenser as your fridge's radiator; its job is to get rid of heat from the system. In a busy kitchen, this can easily get clogged with dust, grease, and flour.
When it gets clogged, your fridge's engine (the compressor) has to work much harder to keep things cool, a bit like you trying to run a marathon while wearing a thick winter coat. This uses more electricity and puts a huge strain on the parts. The BCC2's pop-out filter lets you give it a quick wipe or vacuum in under a minute. Doing this simple task once a month can prevent breakdowns, lower your energy bills, and seriously extend the life of your fridge.
