EP1 4H Spec SheetProduct Description
The Foster EcoPro G3 EP1/4H is a four-door refrigerated counter unit designed to sit beneath a preparation surface and provide chilled storage directly at the point of use. The four-door layout divides the interior into accessible zones, which suits kitchens where different sections of the prep team need independent access to ingredients without crossing the line or disrupting service flow.
Counter fridges in a working kitchen take sustained punishment — doors opened hundreds of times a shift, ambient temperatures climbing during service, and heavy gastronorm containers being loaded and unloaded throughout the day. The EcoPro G3 is built with that reality in mind. The +stayclear condenser is designed to resist the grease and dust accumulation that gradually degrades refrigeration efficiency, helping the unit hold consistent temperatures rather than losing effectiveness between cleans. The Airlines ventilation system supports compressor cooling, which contributes to reduced running time and lower energy consumption over a full shift.
A few practical features are worth noting from an operational standpoint:
- PureControl LED display gives clear, straightforward temperature monitoring on the line
- 304 stainless steel on doors and covers holds up to the wear of daily kitchen use
- Cyclopentane foam insulation helps sustain thermal performance under frequent door opening
- Fully floating lock is designed to resist breakage under heavy daily use
- Helicoil mains lead allows the unit to be moved for cleaning without stressing the cable
Installation is generally straightforward, but it is worth ensuring adequate ventilation clearance around the condenser before positioning the unit — restricted airflow is a common cause of reduced efficiency and accelerated wear. The unit is rated for operation in high ambient temperature environments, making it suitable for kitchens where conditions warm significantly during service peaks. Confirm your electrical supply is compatible before proceeding.
This counter is well suited to mid-sized and larger operations — restaurants, hotels, contract catering sites, and similar environments — where a dedicated prep line benefits from under-counter refrigeration with meaningful capacity. Smaller kitchens running lighter volumes may find a two-door unit a more proportionate choice, while very high-throughput sites may want to consider whether additional refrigeration capacity is needed alongside it.
If you'd like to talk through whether this configuration fits your kitchen layout or service pattern before ordering, the team is happy to help.

EP1 4H Spec SheetFrequently Asked Questions
- A four-door unit works well where you need to keep different ingredient types separated, where multiple prep sections need independent access, or where the service volume justifies the additional capacity. If your prep line is compact or your team is small, a two-door counter may be a more proportionate fit — it's worth thinking through your actual workflow before deciding.
- The main consideration is ventilation clearance around the condenser — restricted airflow is one of the most common causes of reduced efficiency and early wear in under-counter refrigeration. You should also confirm that your electrical supply is compatible before installation. The unit is rated for use in high ambient temperature environments, which suits most commercial kitchen settings.
- The +stayclear condenser and Airlines ventilation system are specifically designed to maintain performance under the conditions a working kitchen creates — elevated ambient temperatures, frequent door openings, and continuous use across a full shift. The cyclopentane insulation helps reduce the thermal load on the compressor, which supports consistent temperatures even during peak periods.
