The Polar G-Series back bar cooler is a single-door under-counter refrigerator designed to store and display bottled and canned drinks at the point of service. Built for placement behind or beneath a bar counter, it keeps contents chilled and visible without requiring staff to leave the service area. The hinged double-glazed glass door allows customers and staff to see the stock at a glance, which supports faster service and helps with stock rotation.

In a busy bar or pub environment, reliable temperature holding is more important than it might seem. This unit is rated to maintain temperature in ambient conditions up to 32°C, which matters in venues where kitchen heat or summer trading can push room temperatures up. The R600a refrigerant system is a common choice for units of this type — efficient and well-suited to the duty cycle of a bar cooler that's opened regularly throughout a shift. LED lighting keeps the interior well illuminated without generating significant heat or adding meaningfully to running costs.

Practical day-to-day advantages include:

  • Adjustable shelving to accommodate different bottle heights and formats
  • Digital temperature controls for straightforward monitoring and adjustment
  • Stainless steel exterior that wipes down quickly during and after service
  • Lockable door to support stock control in high-footfall venues
  • Low-profile under-counter footprint that fits neatly into most bar builds

Installation is straightforward — the unit requires a standard 13-amp socket and adequate ventilation around the cabinet. As with all refrigeration, it should not be positioned directly against a wall with no rear clearance, and it should not be placed adjacent to heat sources such as glasswashers or ovens. At 48kg it is manageable to position during a fit-out, though the exact placement should be confirmed before installation given the fixed plinth height of most bar counters.

This cooler is well suited to pubs, bars, cafés, and smaller hotel bars where a single-door under-counter unit handles the volume. It holds up to 108 standard 330ml bottles, which is a reasonable working stock for a moderate-volume bar. For high-volume venues or those requiring a larger chilled display, a wider or multi-door alternative may be worth considering. Equally, if the primary need is for wine or a mixed ambient range, it is worth discussing whether a different product type would serve better.

If you are unsure whether this unit matches your service volume or fits your bar configuration, our team is happy to talk it through before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

Is this unit suitable for a high-volume bar doing several hundred covers a night?

At 108 bottles capacity, this cooler is well suited to moderate-volume bars where staff replenish stock between shifts or during quieter periods. For a very high-volume venue where the bar cooler is being emptied and restocked continuously throughout service, a larger-capacity unit or multiple units may be a more practical solution — it is worth discussing your typical service volumes before deciding.

What are the installation requirements for this back bar cooler?

The unit runs from a standard 13-amp socket and requires no specialist electrical installation. You should allow adequate ventilation clearance around the cabinet — placing it flush against a wall with no rear airflow or directly adjacent to a heat-generating appliance such as a glasswasher will affect performance and longevity. Confirm the bar counter height and plinth clearance before positioning, as these are fixed once a bar is built.

Can this cooler be used to store wine alongside bottled beers and soft drinks?

The unit operates between 2°C and 8°C, which covers the serving temperature for most bottled beers, lagers, and soft drinks. White and sparkling wines are also typically served within this range. If you need a single unit to hold both red wine at cellar temperature and chilled lager simultaneously, that is not practical within one cabinet — a separate wine cooler set to a higher temperature would be more appropriate for reds.
