Polar U-Series 1.5 x 1.2m Integral Walk-In Freezer Room Green

The Polar U-Series walk-in freezer room is a fully integral, self-contained cold store designed for commercial kitchens that require substantial frozen storage capacity in a defined footprint. With a gross capacity of 2843 litres, it provides meaningful bulk storage for frozen ingredients, prepared goods, or delivery intake — without the complexity of a remote refrigeration system. The olive green exterior finish is a factory-applied option that suits operators who want the unit to sit more discreetly within a kitchen or prep area.

The integral design means the refrigeration unit is built directly into the room itself, removing the need for ducting, remote condensers, or separate plant rooms. This significantly simplifies installation and reduces the ongoing maintenance points associated with split systems. The unit is rated to operate effectively in ambient temperatures up to 43°C, which is a practical consideration for kitchens where the surrounding environment can become warm during busy service periods. The 80mm insulated wall panels and rebated lockable door contribute to thermal efficiency, helping the room hold temperature consistently even during frequent access.

Operational advantages worth noting:

• Integral refrigeration simplifies installation and reduces plant room requirements
• Forced air cooling supports even temperature distribution throughout the store
• Rebated door closes flush against the panels, improving both seal integrity and security
• Suitable for ambient environments up to 43°C, covering most commercial kitchen conditions
• R449A refrigerant aligns with current F-Gas considerations

This unit is supplied with site survey, delivery, professional installation, and set-up included in the price, which is important given the weight and electrical requirements involved. Installation is available to mainland UK locations only. The room is designed for indoor use as standard; if outdoor siting is required, a weather-resistant roof panel is available separately. Internal racking and shelving are not included and are sold separately — this is worth factoring into the overall budget and layout planning before ordering.

A 1.5 x 1.2m footprint suits smaller to mid-sized operations — independent restaurants, pub kitchens, school catering facilities, or food production units where a chest freezer or upright cabinet is no longer sufficient but a larger modular cold room would be excessive. For sites with heavier throughput, more frequent door access, or greater storage demands, a larger-capacity room may be a more practical long-term investment.

Because walk-in freezer rooms involve a considered installation and are non-returnable once ordered as special-to-order units, it is worth discussing your specific layout and usage requirements with the team before committing. We are happy to talk through whether this configuration is the right fit for your site.
