The Polar U-Series counter fridge/freezer is a dual-compartment undercounter refrigeration unit built from stainless steel throughout. Both sections operate independently, with the right-hand compartment switchable between fridge and freezer operation via the digital controller — a practical feature for kitchens where storage priorities shift across service periods or seasons. The forced-air cooling system circulates cold air consistently across both compartments, reducing the risk of warm spots that lead to temperature fluctuation and spoilage.

In a working kitchen, this unit performs reliably during continuous use. The 60mm insulation and auto-defrost function help maintain efficiency without manual intervention, and the self-closing doors reduce the energy loss that comes with heavy kitchen traffic. At 132kg it is a solid, stable piece of kit, and the lockable castors make repositioning for cleaning straightforward without compromising stability during service.

From an operational standpoint, the practical advantages of this unit include:

  • Dual-zone storage in a single footprint, reducing the need for two separate units
  • Switchable right-hand section adapts to changing storage requirements
  • Digital temperature control across both compartments, simple to read and adjust
  • Self-closing doors help maintain consistent temperatures during busy periods
  • 1/1 GN-compatible shelving (two per compartment) works with standard gastronorm containers

This unit runs on standard electrical supply and requires no specialist gas or water connection, which simplifies installation considerably. At 1360mm wide, it occupies a reasonable run of counter space, so it is worth confirming that the available space accommodates both the unit itself and adequate clearance for door swing and ventilation. The R600a/R290 refrigerant blend and C energy rating are worth factoring into running cost assessments for sites watching utility expenditure.

This unit suits small to medium commercial kitchens — cafés, sandwich bars, pub kitchens, and smaller restaurant prep areas — where flexible cold storage in a compact format is more important than high-volume capacity. It is also a common choice as a secondary prep fridge in larger operations. For sites handling significantly higher volumes or needing greater capacity across both temperature zones, a larger undercounter or upright model may be a more appropriate fit.

If you are unsure whether this unit matches your service volume or kitchen layout, our team is happy to talk through the options before you commit to a purchase.

Frequently asked questions

Is this unit suitable for a high-volume kitchen running multiple sittings?

The 124Ltr total capacity (88Ltr usable) is well suited to smaller operations or as a secondary prep unit in larger kitchens, but sites running high cover counts across multiple sittings will likely find the storage capacity limiting. In those situations, a higher-capacity undercounter or upright model would typically serve better.

What are the installation requirements for this unit?

The unit runs on a standard electrical supply with no gas or water connection required, making installation relatively straightforward. You will need to allow sufficient clearance around the unit for ventilation and full door swing, and confirm the available counter run accommodates the 1360mm width before ordering.

Can both compartments be set to fridge temperature at the same time?

The left-hand compartment operates as a fridge, and the right-hand section can be switched between fridge and freezer operation via the digital controller — so yes, both can run as fridges simultaneously if your storage needs require it. This flexibility makes the unit particularly useful in kitchens where cold storage priorities change across different menu periods.
