Foster EcoPro G3 EP1440H 1350 Ltr Double Door Upright Refrigerator

The Foster EcoPro G3 EP1440H is a large-capacity double door upright refrigerator built for busy commercial kitchens that need dependable chilled storage at volume. With 1350 litres of usable interior space across two doors, it is designed to handle the kind of continuous loading and access demands that come with professional kitchen environments — from busy restaurant prep through to high-throughput contract catering operations.

In practice, a cabinet of this size earns its place where a single door unit cannot hold sufficient volume to support a full service period without restocking. The EcoPro G3 range has a solid reputation in commercial kitchens for holding stable temperatures even in warmer ambient conditions, which is particularly relevant in kitchens where the ambient temperature can rise significantly during service. The updated Airlines ventilation system improves airflow around the compressor, which helps reduce running time and supports consistent thermal performance over long shifts.

From an operational standpoint, a few features on the G3 range are worth noting:

• The +stayclear condenser is designed to resist dust build-up, which helps maintain energy efficiency over time and reduces the frequency of engineer call-outs for condenser-related issues.
• The PureControl LED display is straightforward to read and operate, reducing the chance of incorrect temperature settings during busy service.
• High-grade 304 stainless steel is used on doors and covers — the areas that take the most punishment in daily use.
• The helicoil mains lead allows the unit to be moved away from the wall for cleaning without disconnecting at the socket.
• Cyclopentane foam insulation helps the cabinet maintain thermal efficiency over the product's working life.

Installation requires adequate floor space for a full-height double door cabinet and sufficient clearance at the rear and top for ventilation. The unit is self-contained and refrigerant-charged, so it does not require an external condenser or remote refrigeration system. A standard mains electrical supply is needed. For kitchens with restricted ceiling height or limited floor space, it is worth confirming the physical dimensions are workable before ordering — this is a substantial piece of equipment.

The EP1440H is well suited to kitchens cooking at volume — busy restaurants, hotel kitchens, contract catering, and large staff canteens where chilled storage capacity is a genuine daily constraint. For smaller operations where a full 1350 litres would be underused, a single door model within the EcoPro G3 range may be more appropriate. Conversely, sites running multiple service periods or very high covers may want to consider whether even this capacity meets their needs.
