The Foster EcoPro G3 EP1/3H is a three-door refrigerated counter designed for prep-line use in professional kitchens. It provides 435 litres of chilled storage in an under-counter format, keeping ingredients accessible at the point of preparation without pulling staff away from their workstation. The G3 platform has a well-established track record in commercial kitchens, and this generation builds on that foundation with refined energy efficiency and improved practical detail throughout.
In active service conditions, the counter holds temperature reliably through repeated door openings during busy periods. Foster's +stayclear condenser resists the lint and grease accumulation that degrades cooling performance over time — a meaningful advantage when the unit sits close to cooking equipment, as is common in prep-line configurations. The Airlines ventilation system draws air more efficiently across the compressor, reducing run time and lowering energy consumption across a full shift. The unit is rated to perform in ambient temperatures up to 43°C, so it copes with the heat levels found in working kitchen environments rather than struggling quietly in the background.
Day-to-day, the G3 counter offers a number of practical operational advantages:
- PureControl LED display gives clear temperature visibility with minimal energy draw
- 304-grade stainless steel on doors and high-contact surfaces withstands heavy daily use
- Cyclopentane insulation maintains thermal efficiency throughout the unit's working life
- Fully floating lock mechanism resists breakage if a key is left in the lock inadvertently
- Helicoil mains lead allows the unit to be pulled forward for cleaning without stressing the cable
Installation is straightforward in most kitchens, though a few points are worth considering before the unit arrives on site. The condenser requires adequate clearance for airflow — positioning the counter flush into a tight alcove without ventilation space will affect both performance and compressor life over time. Electrical connection should be completed by a qualified person. Where this unit is being installed alongside other refrigeration in a counter run, the cumulative heat load in that section of the kitchen is worth factoring into the layout plan.
This counter is well suited to mid-sized restaurant kitchens, hotel operations, and contract catering environments where consistent prep-line refrigeration is needed across a full service day. It works as a standalone unit or built into a larger counter configuration. Kitchens with lighter throughput may find a single- or two-door model in the same range more proportionate to their needs. For very high-volume sites operating extended service periods or particularly demanding environments, it is worth discussing whether a higher-specification unit would be the better long-term choice.
If you would like to talk through how this unit fits your kitchen layout, existing refrigeration setup, or service pattern, our team is happy to help before you commit to an order.
Frequently asked questions
Is the three-door counter the right size for our kitchen, or should we consider a smaller model?
The three-door, 435-litre format suits mid-sized and larger operations where a meaningful volume of chilled ingredients needs to be accessible at the prep line throughout a full service day. If your kitchen operates a shorter service period or runs a smaller menu, a single- or two-door counter in the same EcoPro G3 range may be more proportionate and more economical to run. It is worth thinking about your busiest service and how much fridge access your prep team actually needs at any one time.
What should we consider when planning where to position this counter in the kitchen?
The main installation consideration is condenser clearance — the unit needs adequate airflow around the condenser to cool efficiently and protect compressor life, so fitting it flush into a sealed alcove without ventilation space is not recommended. If you are building it into a counter run alongside other refrigeration units, factor in the combined heat output from that section when planning ventilation for the area. Electrical connection should be carried out by a qualified person.
How does the +stayclear condenser affect day-to-day maintenance in a busy kitchen?
In most commercial kitchens, standard condenser designs gradually accumulate grease and lint, which restricts airflow and forces the compressor to work harder — this reduces efficiency and shortens equipment life if not addressed regularly. The +stayclear condenser is designed to resist that build-up, which is particularly useful when the unit is positioned close to cooking equipment. It does not eliminate the need for routine cleaning checks, but it does reduce the frequency and severity of condenser blockage in typical kitchen conditions.
