T-23G-HC FGD01-SpecProduct Description
The True T-23G-HC is a single-section upright refrigerator with a full-height glass door, designed for commercial foodservice environments where consistent temperature holding and clear product visibility are both daily requirements. It sits within True Refrigeration's established commercial range and is a familiar unit in restaurants, cafés, bars, and food retail settings where staff need to locate and access chilled product quickly without unnecessary door openings.
True has a well-regarded reputation for build quality and temperature stability across sustained heavy use, and the T-23G-HC reflects that. The refrigeration system is designed to recover effectively after repeated door openings during a busy service — a practical consideration that is easy to overlook when comparing units on specification sheets alone. The HC designation indicates a hydrocarbon refrigerant, which carries a lower global warming potential than many older refrigerant types and aligns with current environmental direction without any trade-off in day-to-day performance.
From an operational standpoint, the cabinet offers a number of practical advantages:
- Glass door allows staff to identify product at a glance, reducing unnecessary door openings
- Stable temperature recovery after repeated access during peak service
- Suitable for front-of-house positioning where presentation is a consideration
- Interior layout supports straightforward clean-down between services
- Hydrocarbon refrigerant aligns with current environmental compliance direction
Installation is relatively straightforward, but adequate clearance around the unit — particularly to the rear and above — is important for ventilation and efficient operation. It runs on a standard single-phase supply. If you are planning to site it in a warm kitchen environment or a position with restricted airflow, that is worth discussing before purchase, as ambient conditions can affect real-world performance more than the specification suggests.
This cabinet is well suited to single-site restaurants, cafés, bars, and similar operations with moderate chilled storage and display requirements. It is a sensible choice where a larger multi-door unit would be oversized for the volume. For higher-capacity operations or sites with significantly greater chilled storage demands, a larger multi-section unit is likely to be a better fit.
If you would like to talk through whether this cabinet is the right match for your space, service pattern, or installation setup, the team is happy to help before you make a decision.

T-23G-HC FGD01-SpecFrequently Asked Questions
- Yes, the T-23G-HC is designed to handle the repeated door openings and sustained demand that come with a busy restaurant service. Temperature recovery is a key part of what True build into this range, though the exact performance in your kitchen will depend on ambient temperature and how the unit is positioned — both worth considering before installation.
- The unit runs on a standard single-phase electrical supply, so no special electrical provision is typically needed. The more important consideration is ventilation — adequate clearance at the rear and top of the cabinet is required for the refrigeration system to operate efficiently. Siting it in a poorly ventilated or particularly warm area of the kitchen can affect performance, so it is worth discussing the intended location with us if you have any doubt.
- Yes, the full-height glass door makes it a practical choice for front-of-house or pass positions where presentation matters and customers or staff need to see the contents clearly. It is commonly used in café and bar settings for exactly this reason. If you are placing it somewhere with higher ambient temperatures or direct sunlight, that is something to factor in when choosing the position.
