Frequently Asked Questions

Do open multi-deck chillers use more energy than glass-door units?

Yes, open cases lose more cold air to the room, which is why night blinds are recommended to cut energy use outside trading hours; glass-door units are more efficient but trade off some impulse visibility.

Can display chillers be positioned anywhere in-store?

They perform best away from direct sunlight, doorways and HVAC supply air, which can affect their ability to hold temperature; we advise on placement during the site survey.
