The Polar U-Series three-door counter fridge/freezer is a dual-temperature undercounter unit designed to provide both refrigeration and freezer storage within a single, worktop-height cabinet. A practical feature of this unit is the switchable right-hand compartment, which can be set to operate as either a fridge or a freezer depending on your service requirements — a useful degree of flexibility for kitchens where storage priorities shift across the week or between services.

In a busy kitchen environment, consistent temperature performance matters as much as raw capacity. Forced-air circulation distributes cold air evenly throughout each compartment, which helps maintain safe storage temperatures even when the doors are opened frequently during service. The auto-defrost function keeps the unit running efficiently without manual intervention, and 60mm insulation throughout the cabinet walls contributes to lower running costs over time. The unit carries an energy rating of C and uses R600a/R290 refrigerant, placing it within current environmental standards for commercial refrigeration.

From an operational standpoint, the design suits kitchens that need to keep a range of ingredients close to the pass without dedicating separate upright units to refrigeration and freezing. Practical advantages include:

  • Switchable right-hand section allowing fridge or freezer use as required
  • Self-closing doors that help maintain temperature and reduce energy loss during busy periods
  • Stainless steel interior and exterior, straightforward to clean and resistant to daily wear
  • Digital controller for simple temperature management without specialist knowledge
  • Lockable castors allowing the unit to be repositioned for cleaning or kitchen reconfiguration

Installation is straightforward for a unit of this type — a standard single-phase supply is required, and the counter-height profile means it fits beneath most standard worksurfaces. At 153.5kg, it is a substantial piece of equipment, so consider floor loading and access routes before delivery. The unit is climate class 5 rated, making it suitable for warmer kitchen environments where ambient temperatures can be a challenge for refrigeration performance.

This unit is well suited to small to medium commercial kitchens — café kitchens, small restaurant operations, or food preparation areas where both fridge and freezer capacity are needed in a compact footprint. For larger sites with higher throughput or volume cold storage requirements, a larger-capacity undercounter or upright unit may be a better fit.

If you are unsure whether the capacity or temperature configuration suits your operation, our team is happy to talk it through with you before you order.

Frequently asked questions

Can both compartments operate as fridges, or is one always a freezer?

The left-hand compartment is fixed as a refrigerator, operating within the standard chill range. The right-hand compartment is switchable via the digital controller, so you can run it as either a fridge or a freezer depending on what your service requires at any given time. This makes it more flexible than a fixed split unit, though you cannot run both sides simultaneously as freezers.

Is this unit suitable for a kitchen with high ambient temperatures?

Yes — the unit carries a climate class 5 rating, which means it is designed to maintain correct operating temperatures in warmer ambient environments. This is worth checking on any commercial refrigeration unit, as kitchens with poor ventilation or high ambient heat can cause lower-rated units to struggle to hold temperature during service.

What should I consider when planning installation of this unit?

The unit requires a standard single-phase electrical supply and no specialist services beyond that. At 153.5kg, floor loading and access through doorways or corridors are worth confirming before delivery. If you are positioning it beneath an existing worksurface, verify the height clearance and ensure there is adequate airflow around the cabinet — blocking ventilation gaps can affect cooling performance and running costs.
