Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Swan & Cygnet, a bustling gastropub in Harrogate, needed to upgrade its outdated and inefficient under-bar fridge ahead of the busy summer season. They chose the Blizzard LOWBAR1 for its capacity and compact dimensions.
"The old fridge was noisy and couldn't keep up on a busy Friday. This new Blizzard is a different world. It’s quiet, keeps a perfect temperature, and the LED lights make the gins and mixers look fantastic. Our customers have definitely noticed the better selection."
Robert Davies – Landlord
Since installation, the pub has reported a 20% increase in sales of premium bottled drinks and a noticeable drop in their quarterly energy bill.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Always let the cooler stand upright for at least 4 hours after delivery before plugging it in.
- Place it on a flat, level surface to ensure the door closes properly and it runs quietly.
- Leave a gap of at least 10cm around the back and sides for good air circulation.
- Once on, allow it to reach the set temperature before you start loading it with stock.
Keeping It Going
- Wipe the interior surfaces and shelves weekly with a food-safe cleaner.
- Clean the black laminated exterior with a soft, damp cloth to keep it looking smart.
- Gently hoover the condenser coils at the back every month to remove dust and improve efficiency.
- Regularly check the door gasket (the rubber seal) for any splits or dirt build-up.

Explore more from BlizzardWhy a Digital Temperature Controller Matters
You've probably seen fridges with a simple dial from 1 to 5, but a digital temperature controller is a huge step up. Think of it like the climate control in a car versus just having the fan on. Instead of a vague setting, you can set the exact temperature you need – say, a perfect 5°C for lagers. The controller constantly monitors the internal temperature and makes tiny adjustments to the cooling system to hold it there precisely. This means no more half-frozen or lukewarm drinks, just consistent perfection that protects the quality of your products and keeps your energy bills down by preventing the fridge from working harder than it needs to.
