The Polar U-Series walk-in cold room is a fully integral chiller unit designed for commercial kitchen environments where reliable bulk cold storage is a daily operational requirement. Built from galvanised steel, aluminium, and plastic panels, it arrives as a complete modular system and is supplied with professional site survey, delivery, installation, and commissioning included in the price — available to mainland UK locations only.

The refrigeration system is engineered to maintain a stable temperature between 2°C and 5°C even when the ambient environment reaches as high as 43°C, which makes it a practical option for kitchens that run hot during service or for sites where the unit is installed in a yard or outbuilding. Forced air circulation helps keep temperatures consistent throughout the storage space rather than allowing warm spots to develop near the door — an important consideration when storing high-value produce over extended periods.

From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages include:

  • Fully rebated lockable door that closes flush against the panels, improving both security and temperature retention
  • Internal surfaces designed for straightforward cleaning without difficult corners or exposed fixings to work around
  • R449A refrigerant, a lower-GWP option that supports compliance with current environmental regulations
  • Suitable for both indoor and outdoor installation, giving flexibility on siting within a busy premises
  • No remote condensing unit required — the integral design keeps installation simpler and the plant contained

At 1.5m wide and 1.2m deep, this unit suits smaller to mid-sized operations — a busy café, a pub kitchen, or a catering prep facility where ambient fridges no longer provide sufficient capacity. It is not designed to replace walk-in rooms serving high-throughput central production kitchens; for those environments, larger-footprint options within the range would be worth considering. The 350kg unit weight means floor loading and access route should be assessed before installation, particularly in older buildings or basements. If sited outside, a weather-resistant roof is available separately and is strongly recommended. Racking and shelving are sold separately and should be planned prior to installation.

This is a special-to-order product and is non-returnable once manufactured, so it is worth taking the time to confirm the specification is right for your site before placing an order. If you would like to talk through the siting options, whether indoor or outdoor installation is more appropriate, or how this footprint compares to other available sizes, the team is happy to help you work through it.

Frequently asked questions

Is this cold room large enough for a busy pub kitchen or small restaurant?

The 1.5 x 1.2m footprint works well for smaller to mid-sized operations — a pub kitchen, café, or catering prep unit where ambient refrigeration has become insufficient but a full-scale walk-in room is impractical. If your team is accessing the room very frequently throughout service or you are storing goods for multiple trading days at volume, it is worth discussing whether a larger footprint would serve you better before committing, as this is a special-to-order product.

What are the key installation requirements for this unit?

The unit is fully integral, meaning no separate remote condensing unit needs to be positioned elsewhere, which simplifies the installation considerably. A site survey is included in the purchase price, which will assess floor loading capacity — the unit weighs 350kg — along with access routes for delivery and positioning. If the room is to be installed outside, a weather-resistant roof is available separately and is strongly recommended to protect the unit and maintain performance.

Can this cold room be used outside, and does that affect its performance?

The Polar U-Series is designed for both indoor and outdoor use, and the refrigeration system is rated to maintain its operating temperature range even in ambient conditions up to 43°C, which covers most UK outdoor environments. For permanent outdoor installation, fitting the optional weather-resistant roof is advisable to protect the panel joints and top surfaces from rain ingress over time. Siting in direct sunlight for extended periods will place more demand on the refrigeration system, so a shaded or covered position is preferable where possible.
