'The Harbour Deli' in Whitby needed to upgrade their ageing prep fridge to cope with the summer tourist rush and speed up their sandwich production line.
"This Inomak counter has completely streamlined our lunchtime service. Everything is perfectly chilled, organised, and right where we need it. No more wasted steps running back and forth to the main fridge. It's been brilliant."
Robert Davies – Owner, The Harbour Deli

Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Find a flat, level spot for the unit to ensure the doors close properly and it runs efficiently.
- Make sure to leave at least 10cm of space around the back and sides for good air circulation.
- Plug it into a standard 13 amp socket – no need for any special wiring.
- Let the unit run for a couple of hours to reach its target temperature before you load it with stock.
Keeping It Going
- Wipe down all stainless steel surfaces daily with a soft cloth and a food-safe cleaner.
- Clean the magnetic door gaskets weekly with warm, soapy water to maintain a tight seal.
- Gently brush or vacuum the condenser coils every month to remove dust and keep it running efficiently.
- Ensure the automatic condensate water evaporation tray is clear and free from any blockages.

Explore more from InomakStay Cool Under Pressure: How Forced Air Circulation Works
Ever noticed how some fridges have warmer spots, especially near the door? Forced air circulation gets rid of that problem. Inside this double hinged door prep counter, a small fan actively pushes cold air all around the cabinet, making sure every nook and cranny stays at the right temperature. Think of it like the difference between a still, warm day and a breezy one – that breeze makes everything feel consistently cooler. This means the lettuce at the front is just as crisp as the tomatoes at the back, even when you're opening and closing the doors non-stop. It’s a simple feature that makes a huge difference to food safety and quality.
