When Is It Time to Replace A Walk-In Cooler?

Anyone who relies on their walk-in dreads the day they’ll have to replace it, but when is it time to replace a walk-in cooler?

In fact, they’ve put together a helpful chart to do exactly that.

Evaluating Your Options

When deciding whether to repair or replace your walk-in cooler or freezer, KPS Global can help you determine the best option. First, issues currently affecting its operation must be identified.

If reasonable for your walk-in needs, A KPSG thermal liner panel can be used to refinish your current walk-in and extend the lifespan of your cooler by up to five years!
