Yes, the floor is an important part of the cooler. The systems work best if they are installed on a level, concrete floor for the best possible insulation. If you currently have a wooden floor, you can choose a different type of insulated flooring rather than pouring concrete. Be sure to speak with your local health department to see if they require specific finishes for your walk-in floor.

The coolers usually come in stock sizes. There are a lot of options, CES, LLC will speak with you to determine your needs and your space and recommend one that fits your needs and budget.   If you are working with a unique space, then you can have a custom refrigerator made for an extra fee.

While doing things yourself may be a good way to save money in some instances, the charge for professional installation is well worth it. The installation process isn’t easy, and the unit has to be installed up to your health department’s codes. When you design or buy commercial kitchen equipment with Cooling Equipment Specialist, our experienced technicians will install it for you, too.

Proper maintenance will keep your walk-in operating reliably and effectively. Try to avoid propping the door open, and turn off the lights every time you exit the cooler. Don’t stack items around the coil, as it needs plenty of air flow. Talk with Cooling Equipment Specialist team about regular inspections and tune-ups to keep it in top condition.
