The Williams Zircon FZ18-SS is a dedicated upright refrigerator built specifically for the storage of fresh fish in a commercial kitchen. It is not a general-purpose chiller repurposed for fish — it is engineered around the particular demands of fish storage, maintaining the consistently low temperatures required to keep fresh fish safe and in condition throughout service.

Fish refrigeration is one of the more unforgiving tasks in a commercial kitchen. Temperature drift, even brief, can compromise product quality and raise food safety concerns. The FZ18-SS is designed to hold stable, accurate conditions in the warm ambient temperatures typical of a busy kitchen environment. The bottom-mounted refrigeration system also makes it a practical choice for sites with lower ceiling heights, which is a common constraint in older or refurbished premises.

Day-to-day operation is designed to be practical rather than cumbersome:

  • Seven polypropylene containers with removable slime trays simplify hygiene and end-of-service cleaning
  • Self-closing door with magnetic gasket helps preserve temperature consistency during busy service
  • CoolSmart controller supports accurate temperature management and energy efficiency
  • Removable racking offers flexibility for different container configurations
  • 75mm polyurethane insulation supports reliable thermal performance across long service periods

As a slimline upright, it suits kitchens where floor space is limited. Keeping fish storage in a clearly dedicated unit also supports hygiene compliance and makes it easier to manage stock separation in a working kitchen — both practically and in terms of food safety records.

This cabinet is well suited to seafood restaurants, fishmongers, hotel kitchens running a strong fish menu, and similar operations where fresh fish is a daily staple. For higher-volume sites or those storing large quantities of whole fish across continuous service shifts, a larger-capacity dedicated unit may be worth considering alongside this model.

If you would like to talk through whether this cabinet fits your service pattern, storage volume, or available floor space, the team is always happy to help you work it out before you order.

Frequently asked questions

Is this cabinet suitable for storing whole fish as well as fillets?

Yes — the removable polypropylene containers and configurable racking can accommodate both filleted fish and smaller whole fish depending on how you arrange the interior. For operations storing large volumes of whole fish regularly, it is worth reviewing the internal configuration with the team to confirm the cabinet will work for your specific stock profile.

Does a dedicated fish fridge need to be installed differently from a standard upright chiller?

Installation requirements are broadly similar to a standard upright refrigeration cabinet, but because fish storage demands very stable low temperatures, it is important to site the unit away from direct heat sources such as ovens, grills, or hot pass areas. Adequate clearance for ventilation around the cabinet should also be confirmed before installation.

How do I know if this capacity is right for my kitchen's fish storage needs?

The right capacity depends on your daily fish intake, delivery frequency, and how much fish you hold in reserve during service. A seafood-led restaurant taking daily deliveries will have very different requirements from a hotel kitchen holding stock across two or three days. If you are unsure, it is worth speaking to the team about your typical stock volume before ordering.
