To build a walk-in chiller or freezer in New Zealand
Details

 Insulated Panels: These panels form the walls, ceiling, and floor of the chiller or freezer. Freezing Valley refrigeration equipment use Cam-lock panels, very easy to install. They are typically made of materials like polyurethane foam sandwiched between steel or aluminum sheets.

 

Refrigeration System: This includes compressors, condensers, evaporators, and controls to maintain the desired temperature inside the chiller or freezer. The refrigeration system is responsible for removing heat from the interior space.

 

Doors: Walk-in chillers and freezers require insulated doors with tight seals to prevent cold air from escaping and warm air from entering. These doors are often equipped with hinges, handles, and locks for easy access and security.

 

Flooring: The flooring of the chiller or freezer needs to be durable, easy to clean, and resistant to moisture. Common options include concrete with epoxy coatings or non-slip vinyl flooring.

 

Shelving and Racking: Depending on your needs, you may want to install shelving or racking systems inside the chiller or freezer to organize and store goods efficiently.

 

Lighting: Proper lighting is essential for visibility inside the chiller or freezer. LED lighting is often preferred for its energy efficiency and durability.

 

Temperature and Humidity Controls: These controls regulate the temperature and humidity levels inside the chiller or freezer to ensure that stored goods remain fresh and safe.

 

Air Circulation System: An air circulation system helps distribute cold air evenly throughout the chiller or freezer, maintaining uniform temperatures and preventing hot spots.

 

Backup Power Supply: Consider installing a backup power supply, such as a generator or battery backup system, to ensure continuous operation during power outages.

 

Regulatory Compliance: Ensure that your walk-in chiller or freezer complies with relevant regulations and standards, including those related to food safety, insulation, and electrical wiring.
