Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The team at 'Salad Days', a popular lunch spot in central Birmingham, were struggling with a cramped and inefficient prep area. They upgraded to the Infrico double door counter to combine their main prep space with their refrigeration.
"It’s brilliant. Everything is in one place now. We’re not running back and forth to the walk-in fridge, and the counter space is fantastic. It’s made our service so much quicker and less stressful."
Michael Davies – Head Chef
The change has directly led to a measurable improvement, reducing average customer wait time by over 20% during their peak 12-2 pm service.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Find a well-ventilated spot away from direct heat sources like ovens or grills.
- Use the adjustable legs to make sure the unit is perfectly level for efficient operation.
- Once plugged in, let the counter get down to its operating temperature before you start loading it with food.
- Ensure the 13 amp socket is easily accessible and not on an extension lead.
Keeping It Going
- Wipe down all stainless steel surfaces daily with a soft cloth and food-safe cleaner.
- Clean the door gaskets (seals) weekly to prevent mould and ensure a tight seal.
- Check the condenser coils at the back are free from dust and debris to maintain cooling efficiency.
- Avoid placing hot pans directly onto the stainless steel worktop.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does GN 1/1 compatible mean?
A: It means the internal shelving is designed to perfectly fit standard 'Gastronorm' 1/1 containers (530x325mm), which are the industry-standard food pans used in most commercial kitchens.
Q: Is this unit difficult to install?
A: Not at all. It comes with a standard 13 amp plug, so no special electrical work is needed. Just position it, plug it in, and you're good to go. However, due to its weight, you will need help to move it into place.
Q: How do you clean the interior?
A: The interior has rounded corners and an internal drain, which makes it very easy to wipe down. Simply use a food-safe cleaner and a soft cloth.
Q: What is the benefit of an upstand?
A: The 100mm upstand at the back of the worktop prevents food, crumbs, and liquids from falling down the gap between the unit and the wall, which is crucial for kitchen hygiene.
Q: Can the temperature be adjusted?
A: Yes, the digital controller allows you to precisely set the temperature anywhere between -2°C and +8°C to suit the ingredients you're storing.
Q: What is R290 refrigerant?
A: R290 (Propane) is a highly efficient and environmentally friendly natural refrigerant with a very low Global Warming Potential (GWP), which also helps to reduce energy consumption.
Q: Are the shelves adjustable?
A: Yes, the shelving supports inside can be moved to accommodate items of different heights, giving you flexibility in how you organise the fridge space.
Q: What is AISI 304 stainless steel?
A: It's a high-quality, food-grade stainless steel that offers excellent corrosion resistance and durability, making it the ideal material for demanding kitchen environments.
