Foster HR240 Under Counter Refrigerator 240 Ltr

The Foster HR240 is a two-door under-counter refrigerator designed to fit beneath standard worktops and provide reliable dairy-temperature chilled storage within a compact footprint. With 240 litres of usable capacity across a stainless steel cabinet, it is built for kitchens where floor space is at a premium but consistent refrigeration cannot be compromised.

In a working kitchen, under-counter refrigeration earns its place by keeping ingredients close to the point of preparation without consuming standing space. The HR240 is rated for ambient temperatures up to 40°C, which makes it a dependable choice in warmer kitchen environments where some units can struggle to maintain stable temperatures during service. The front-breathing refrigeration system is one of the more practical features on this cabinet — because it draws and expels air from the front rather than the sides or rear, the unit can be positioned within enclosed under-counter runs or fitted into built-in configurations without needing ventilation gaps around the cabinet body.

• Front-breathing design allows installation in enclosed under-counter runs
• GN 1/1 compatible interior supports standard gastronorm storage
• Rear roller castors and front levelling bolts allow repositioning and precise levelling
• Aluminium interior is straightforward to clean and durable under daily use
• A-rated energy classification helps keep running costs manageable over long operating hours

Installation is straightforward. The unit runs from a standard single-phase electrical supply and requires no water connection. There is no need for rear clearance, though the front grille must remain unobstructed to ensure adequate airflow. Before ordering, it is worth confirming that your worktop height and run configuration will accommodate the cabinet.

The HR240 is well suited to smaller operations — cafés, sandwich bars, pub kitchens, and prep areas — where dairy storage is needed close to the pass or bench. It is also commonly used as secondary or supplementary refrigeration in larger kitchens. Where greater capacity or a broader temperature range is needed, larger upright or multi-door options within the Foster range may be more appropriate.
