Collection: Norpole Refrigerators

What’s the difference between a sandwich/salad prep table and a Mega Top prep table?

Both keep ingredients at 33-40°F with refrigerated storage below, but Mega Top models hold more pans on top. For example, the 47 in. 2-Door Mega Top holds 18 1/6-size pans, while the 47 in. 10 cu. ft. 2-Door prep table holds 12. At 70 in., the Mega Top holds 30 pans versus 18 on the 19 cu. ft. 3-door. Pick Mega Top for pizza or large-topping menus.

Which Norpole reach-in refrigerator size fits my kitchen?

Norpole reach-ins range from the 12 cu. ft. single door up to the 23 cu. ft. single door (about 29 in. wide) and the 54 in. 2-door model. The 2-door has 6 adjustable shelves, reversible doors and casters, and runs at 33-40°F. Measure your space, doorways and aisle clearance, then compare the width and height listed on each product page.

What is a chef base and how is it used?

A chef base is a low refrigerated base designed to sit under countertop cooking equipment like griddles and charbroilers, keeping proteins and ingredients right at the line. The 48 in. and 60 in. Norpole chef bases have stainless steel interiors and exteriors, 33-40°F temperatures, digital controls, a side-mounted compressor and caster wheels. Check the product page for top load ratings and matching equipment widths.

Do you offer refrigerators for bars and beverage service?

Yes. The 36 in. (9.2 cu. ft.) and 50 in. (14 cu. ft.) Glass Frosters chill glasses at 0-7°F with sliding stainless steel lids. The 95 in. 16 cu. ft. Bottle Cooler has heavy-duty sliding lids and a built-in bottle opener. For customer-facing displays, choose from the 2.5 cu. ft. countertop beverage merchandiser, glass door merchandisers up to 53 cu. ft., or the open air merchandisers with LED-lit shelves and a night cover.

What refrigerant and certifications do Norpole units carry?

Many Norpole models, including the 27 in. 6 cu. ft. under counter refrigerator, the 54 in. 2-door reach-in and several prep tables, use an R-290 compressor, a natural refrigerant. Many are ETL listed and advertise a 5-year compressor warranty in their descriptions. Since specs vary by model, check the product page of the unit you’re considering for its certification marks and warranty details.
