Frequently Asked Questions

What industries use underbar refrigeration from KaTom?

Our refrigeration is essential for bars, restaurants, hotel lounges, entertainment venues, and anywhere that requires reliable, cold storage within a compact work area.

What is the difference between air-cooled and remote-cooled bar refrigeration?

Air-cooled units are self-contained and easier to install, while remote-cooled systems move the heat and noise of the compressor to an outside location, making them ideal for quiet lounges.

How do I choose the right size cooler for my bar?

Assess your peak-hour inventory needs. If it will be located between other equipment, ensure you choose a unit with a front-breathing to prevent overheating and ensure a long lifecycle for the compressor.
