Why this fridge room earns its place
The DS481-CBN is a walk-in cold room from Polar's U-Series, built to give a busy kitchen a dedicated space for 2,843 litres of chilled stock instead of a row of upright fridges. At 1.5 by 1.2 m (external) it suits back-of-house corners, cellars and prep areas where floor space is at a premium but shelved chilled capacity still has to grow with the operation.
Because it is an integral unit, the refrigeration is built into the room itself — there is no separate condensing unit to site elsewhere, so it arrives as a single, self-contained cold-storage solution you power up and load. The 80mm insulation and integral R449A cooling system hold it at a steady +2 to +5 °C. Walk-in access lets staff wheel in trolleys, rotate stock by date and pick orders without unstacking, which keeps a chilled section organised through service. It carries a 2-year parts and labour warranty plus a 5-year panel guarantee.
Plan the install around the 1.5 by 1.2 m footprint, the 350kg loaded weight and the route to the room's final position, checking doorways and corridors before delivery. The room is finished in a brown exterior and requires a level floor and 230V electrical connection. Full capacity and refrigerant details are in the spec table above, and our team can confirm anything not listed before you order.
