Frequently Asked Questions
How does a walk-in refrigerator differ from a standard walk-in cooler?
Both terms are often used interchangeably. A walk-in refrigerator maintains temperatures above freezing, typically between 1øC and 4øC, for fresh produce, dairy, and proteins.
What capacity should a walk-in refrigerator have for a high-volume catering operation?
High-volume caterers should size their walk-in refrigerator based on peak event prep loads, not average daily use. Custom configurations from Norbec ensure you get the exact footprint and shelf space you need.
Can a walk-in refrigerator be expanded later if my business grows?
Modular panel construction makes it possible to expand many walk-in refrigerator systems. Confirm expandability with the manufacturer before initial installation to keep future growth as an option.
Should I add shelving or a specific racking system inside a walk-in refrigerator?
Wire shelving maximizes airflow and organization inside a walk-in refrigerator. Wire shelving from Zanduco fits most commercial walk-in layouts and supports heavy loads.
Do walk-in refrigerator panels have fire-rated options for Canadian building codes?
Yes. Curtis walk-in refrigerator panels offer fire-rated options that meet Canadian building code requirements, making them suitable for installations in multi-use buildings.
Which flooring is best inside a walk-in refrigerator?
Insulated floor panels are recommended for walk-in refrigerator installations on concrete slabs or above grade. Floorless designs work for ground-level slab installations where the concrete is already insulated.
Does installing a walk-in refrigerator in a typical Canadian restaurant take long?
Most walk-in refrigerator installations using prefabricated panels take one to two days, depending on size and site conditions. Electrical and refrigeration hookups may add additional time.
