Upright freezer IGLOO OL100.P/M

An upright freezer removes heat from food and holds it below freezing point, preserving freshness for weeks or months. The refrigeration cycle compresses and expands a gas refrigerant, pulling heat from the cabinet and releasing it outside. This continuous cycle keeps the interior at a steady temperature, slowing bacterial growth and preventing spoilage. The upright design allows organised storage on shelves, making stock easy to see and reach without stacking or digging through layers of frozen items.

To use the IGLOO OLA P-M, load food onto the ten adjustable shelves, close the door and set the desired temperature between -18 and -12 °C. The interior lighting switches on when the door opens, showing contents clearly. Adjustable legs level the unit on uneven floors, ensuring the door seals properly and the refrigeration cycle runs efficiently.

The cabinet is built from stainless steel, resisting corrosion and making cleaning straightforward. The door seal keeps cold air inside, reducing energy waste. Shelves are removable for thorough cleaning, and the smooth interior surfaces prevent ice build-up from trapping dirt.

The 230 V 50 Hz power supply matches standard UK commercial circuits, allowing installation without special wiring. The 8.6 kWh daily energy consumption reflects the load on the kitchen's electrical supply, typical for a 1400 L freezer maintaining sub-zero temperatures. The 210 kg weight requires two people or a trolley to move the unit, and the 1675 mm height fits through standard doorways when the legs are removed.

The 1400 L volume provides space for bulk storage, while the -18 to -12 °C range suits frozen meats, vegetables, prepared meals and ice cream. The ten shelves organise stock by category, preventing cross-contamination and making inventory checks quick. The adjustable legs compensate for uneven floors, keeping the door aligned and the seal tight.

Cleaning involves wiping the interior with a damp cloth and mild detergent, removing shelves to clean underneath. The door seal should be checked regularly for damage or debris, ensuring it remains airtight. The exterior can be cleaned with a stainless steel cleaner to maintain appearance and prevent corrosion.

The IGLOO OLA P-M is categorised as a professional upright freezer, designed for commercial kitchens, food service and catering operations.
