What An Appliance Service Can Do For You
Top Considerations When Buying a Commercial Refrigerator
Roland Hunt
If you run a business that requires the use of a commercial derogator, you need to be sure that you choose the right option. The profitability of your restaurant business will likely depend on how much value you obtain when making your commercial refrigerator purchase. There are many different types of commercial refrigerators that you can choose from, but you need to know what the top considerations are when making your buy.
Energy Efficiency
You will be not only paying for the initial purchase of your commercial fridge, but you will also be paying long term for the energy use associated with your fridge. This means that you should consider buying a commercial refrigerator that comes with an energy efficient label. This might make it more costly upfront, but it is a wise investment long term. If you have an inefficient refrigerator, it can amass immense costs. The Energy Star label is what you should look for when you want to make the most energy efficient buy possible.
Compressor
Your commercial refrigerator will be outfitted with a compressor, but the location of the compressor can vary. You can buy a commercial fridge that features a compressor at the top or at the bottom. A compressor is what is responsible for circulating the refrigerant. If you choose a top-mounted commercial fridge, you can be sure that it will offer more longevity. This is because heat rises and removing heat from the refrigerator is simpler at the top. The service life of a bottom-mounted compressor is less because it has a harder time keeping the refrigerator cool and has to work harder. This means that buying a top-mounted commercial refrigerator is the better choice even though it often comes with a higher price tag. This investment will pay off over time.
Interior Dimension
You might think that the size of the refrigerator is completely dependent on the exterior measurements, but this is often not the case when you are dealing with commercial fridges. This means that you need to pay close attention to the actual interior dimensions of the fridge because this has the most bearing on the amount of space that you will have within the fridge to work with. Make sure that you consider your regular stock purchases when you are determining the amount of space that you will require from your commercial fridge. It is better to buy a larger commercial refrigerator that has the ability to grow with your business.

Hello, welcome to my blog. My name is Joe. For many years, I worked as a contractor for an appliance servicing company. I have repaired every type of appliance found in the average home. A lot of the time, I had to repair appliances which had stopped working because they had not been properly maintained. I would do my best to educate people on the steps they need to take in order to keep their appliances in good working order. However, I would still get called out to jobs to repair and replace appliances which had been neglected. I decided to start this blog in order advise others about appliance care.
