Founded in 1948 by World War II veteran Bob Trulaske, True refrigeration got its start creating bottle coolers out of downtown St. Louis warehouse, but the brand has grown into one of the largest players in the global commercial refrigeration market. Known for reliable and sanitary commercial refrigerators, the family-owned business primarily creates refrigerators out of its O'Fallon, Mo., headquarters.
True GDM-69-HC-LD 78 1/8" GDM Series Three Section Glass Door Merchandiser - (3) Sliding Doors, Black, 115v
True Refrigeration GDM-69-HC-LD Description
The True GDM-69-HC-LD three-section glass door merchandiser has ample storage space for a variety of products with 12 PVC-coated, corrosion-resistant, adjustable shelves. True's commitment to using the most energy efficient technology ensures quickly cooling warm products and a fast recovery in high volume settings. This merchandiser's cabinet is fully insulated with polyurethane—an environmentally friendly insulation—that adds structure. Its three double-paned, thermal glass doors retain cool temperatures.
Evaporator coils and fan blades create efficient air flow that evenly distributes 33 to 38 degree Fahrenheit temperatures throughout this cabinet. Since the True GDM-69-HC-LD three-section refrigerated display case has a bottom-mounted condenser, merchandise is raised to a higher level for customer viewing. This unit uses R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant that is better for the environment than traditional options, and the refrigerant is in the capillary tubes, which are self-contained and regulate refrigerant flow.
Producing ideal product temperatures and saving money on energy costs, the condensing coil is kept clean with the reverse condensing fan motor. It operates automatically by blowing in reverse when the compressor is started. This feature helps rid the coil of dust and debris, however, routine maintenance should still be implemented.
