Common Questions About Kelvinator Commercial

Why choose Kelvinator?

Kelvinator freezers, refrigerators, and other cold storage pieces are all built to meet or exceed NSF 7 standards, meaning they're designed from the ground up to be as food-safe as possible. NSF certification is also handy when the inspector comes around, as it's usually more than enough to satisfy those requirements. Kelvinator has also been around for decades, establishing a record of reliability that operators still trust today. Additionally, Kelvinator freezers and fridges are backed with a 3-year parts and labor warranty, as well as a 5-year compressor warranty, which ensures the purchaser gets plenty of value.

Which type of Kelvinator freezer do I need?

Kelvinator makes a wide variety of freezers, each with a place in commercial foodservice dependent on your needs. Kelvinator chest freezers, also known as Kelvinator deep freezers, are great for bulk storage of frozen foods in a small space but won't fit underneath a counter as they open from the top. A Kelvinator chest freezer with a clear sliding top works well as an ice cream merchandiser, as customers can peer in and find the item they want before opening the freezer and letting heat in.

Kelvinator upright freezers serve to keep large quantities of food frozen and readily accessible for commercial kitchen use. Some Kelvinator upright freezers can double as frozen-food merchandisers – if you plan to use them this way, make sure you choose one with glass doors and internal lighting to best market the goods to your customers.

What type of Kelvinator fridge should I choose?

All Kelvinator refrigerators meet NSF 7 standards and come with the same great warranty, but have vastly different shapes, sizes, and purposes. A Kelvinator bar fridge is great to store items your bartender needs close by, such as beer, wine, and mixers. Kelvinator bar fridges can also double as merchandisers, displaying cans of beer and bottles of wine to thirsty guests. If you're looking for efficient cold storage for a commercial kitchen, you'll need an upright refrigerator, as these are designed to provide maximum storage volume, maintain temperature, and facilitate thorough cleaning.
