True TUC-24-HC Undercounter Refrigerator 158 Ltr

The True TUC-24-HC is a single-door undercounter refrigerator from True's well-established TUC range. Designed to sit beneath a standard worktop, it provides 158 litres of chilled storage at the point of preparation — a practical solution for kitchens where floor space is at a premium and ingredients need to be close to hand without occupying a full upright cabinet.

True's commercial refrigeration units are widely used in professional kitchens, and the TUC-24-HC reflects that pedigree. The unit operates on a forced-air refrigeration system, circulating cold air throughout the cabinet to maintain consistent temperatures across the full interior. In practice, this means product stored near the door or at the rear of the cabinet holds temperature reliably, even during busy service periods when the door is opened repeatedly. The use of R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant supports lower energy consumption and aligns with current environmental compliance requirements — both operationally and from a regulatory standpoint, a worthwhile consideration when specifying new equipment.

Practical advantages for kitchen operators include:

• Forced-air circulation ensures even temperature distribution throughout the cabinet
• Compact undercounter format keeps ingredients accessible at the prep station
• R290 refrigerant supports energy-efficient running and environmental compliance
• Robust build quality suited to sustained daily use in commercial kitchens
• Consistent holding temperatures support food safety during peak service

Installation is generally straightforward — the unit is designed to fit beneath a standard worktop and requires a suitable mains electrical connection. Before installation, it is worth confirming adequate ventilation clearance on all relevant sides, as restricted airflow will affect refrigeration performance. If your kitchen runs particularly warm in the back-of-house, check that the ambient operating range is compatible with your environment.

The TUC-24-HC is well suited to cafés, small to medium restaurants, and prep lines where undercounter refrigerated storage is needed close to a workstation. It suits operations with moderate chilled storage requirements at a single station. Where greater capacity is needed — or where a single unit would need to serve a higher-volume service — a larger undercounter or upright cabinet may be the more appropriate choice.
