The Kubus KCIW4HT is a drop-in refrigerated cold island well designed to sit flush within a prepared counter surface and provide chilled, illuminated display for self-service food and drink. Customers can access product from both sides of the unit, making it a practical choice for free-flow counter layouts where speed of service matters. The condensing unit is underslung beneath the counter and ventilated through grilles supplied with the unit, which keeps the installation profile clean at counter level.

The unit is rated for 24-hour continuous operation, which suits sites where the display needs to remain active through extended service periods or overnight. It runs on R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant, which carries a lower global warming potential than older refrigerant types and tends to draw less energy across a full operating year — a consideration worth factoring in when running a unit continuously. The eye-level digital temperature display gives staff a quick read on performance without disrupting service, and the lockable control panel prevents accidental or unauthorised adjustments during a busy period.

From a day-to-day operational standpoint, several details support efficient service:

  • Modular removable deck plates make end-of-service cleaning straightforward
  • Integrated condensate evaporator removes the need for a site drainage connection
  • Toughened glass sneeze screens on both sides protect product while keeping access open
  • Diffused gantry lighting presents product clearly without uneven hot spots
  • Temperature-lockable controls reduce the risk of accidental setting changes

Installation requires a suitably prepared countertop opening. The unit ships with air inlet grilles, a lifting kit, and a 2-metre lead and plug top for a standard mains connection. At 136kg, this is a substantial unit — adequate handling resource at delivery and installation should be planned for. The underslung condensing unit requires clear airflow in the counter void beneath, so confirm your counter void dimensions against the unit specification before ordering. GN containers are not included.

This unit is well suited to café and restaurant self-service counters, hotel buffet setups, staff canteens, and food-to-go operations where customers serve directly from a chilled display. The 1525mm width accommodates four full GN positions, which suits a moderate range of chilled lines at service. Operators running higher-volume buffet operations or requiring a longer display run should consider whether a larger configuration would better match their throughput.

If you're planning a counter build-out or refurbishment, it's worth talking through how this unit would sit within your layout before committing to an order — our team is happy to work through the practical details with you.

Frequently asked questions

Is this unit suitable for overnight or 24-hour operation?

Yes — the KCIW4HT is rated for continuous 24-hour operation, which makes it a practical choice for hotel buffet setups, food-to-go counters, or any site where the display needs to remain active outside of core service hours. The R290 refrigerant system and integrated condensate evaporator are both designed with extended run times in mind.

What does the counter void need to accommodate for the underslung condensing unit?

The condensing unit is mounted beneath the counter and ventilated through grilles supplied with the unit, so the counter void must provide sufficient clear airflow around the unit. You should confirm your void dimensions against the unit's installation requirements before ordering — insufficient airflow will affect refrigeration performance and could cause the unit to run inefficiently.

How many GN containers does this unit hold, and is it the right size for my operation?

The unit accommodates four full 1/1 GN positions across its 1525mm width, which suits a moderate range of chilled lines for cafés, canteens, or restaurant self-service counters. If you're running a larger buffet operation or need a longer display run with more GN positions, it's worth discussing whether a higher-capacity configuration would be a better fit for your throughput.
