Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Village Store in Keswick, Cumbria, needed to replace its ageing drinks chiller which was struggling to keep up during the busy tourist season. They chose the Polar DM076 for its capacity and trusted reputation for reliability.

"Our old fridge was a constant worry. The new Polar keeps a perfect, even temperature, even on the hottest days. The internal light makes the drinks look so much more appealing to customers as they queue, and it's been completely dependable."

David Chen – Owner

The store reported a noticeable 20% uplift in cold drink sales in the first two months of operation.

How Fan-Assisted Cooling Keeps Your Stock Perfect

Ever noticed in a standard fridge how items at the back get colder than those at the front? Fan-assisted cooling solves that. Think of it like a fan oven, but for chilling. A small, internal fan constantly circulates the cold air around the entire cabinet, eliminating warm spots and ensuring every single item—from the top shelf to the bottom, front to back—is held at the exact same, perfect temperature. This also means that when a customer opens the door, the fridge recovers its temperature much faster once closed. The result is safer food, better quality drinks, and happier customers.

Installation and Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Position the fridge in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight or heat sources like ovens.
  • Once in place, let the unit stand for at least 4 hours before plugging it in to allow the refrigerant to settle.
  • Give the interior and shelves a quick wipe-down with a food-safe cleaner before you start stocking.
  • Use the smooth-running castors to get it into the perfect spot, then firmly lock them to keep it stable.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe the door seals weekly with a damp cloth to ensure they create a tight seal, saving energy.
  • Schedule a regular manual defrost to prevent ice from building up, which can affect efficiency.
  • Every couple of months, carefully brush or vacuum the condenser coils to remove dust and improve performance.
  • Make a habit of checking the digital temperature display daily to ensure everything is running as it should.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Display Fridge

Not sure which commercial display fridge is right for you? Here are a few things to consider to make sure you get the perfect fit for your business.

Size & Capacity

Measure your space carefully, remembering to leave room for ventilation around the back and sides. Match the internal capacity to your stock levels – too big is inefficient, too small means missed sales.

Door Type

Glass doors, like on this Polar DM076 display refrigerator, are essential for showcasing products to customers. For back-of-house storage, a solid door fridge is often more energy-efficient.

Cooling System

Fan-assisted cooling provides even temperatures and fast recovery, ideal for busy shops. Static cooling is quieter and can be better for delicate items like patisserie that might dry out.

Positioning & Access

Will you need to move the unit for cleaning? If so, lockable castors are a must-have feature. Consider whether you need a hinged or sliding door depending on the space available.

Ambient Temperature

Check the maximum ambient temperature rating. If your kitchen or shop gets very hot, you'll need a fridge that's designed to cope with those conditions to avoid breakdown.
