Medium Temp Systems

What Is a Medium-Temp Refrigeration System?

A medium-temp system maintains standard refrigerated temperatures, typically between 35°F and 45°F, and is used to store perishable goods that need to stay cold but not frozen — dairy products, produce, beverages, and similar inventory. Medium-temp systems power most walk-in coolers, in contrast to low-temp systems, which power walk-in freezers and run below freezing.

What Should I Look for in a Medium-Temp System?

A reliable medium-temp system holds a consistent temperature throughout the storage space, circulates air well enough to prevent uneven cooling and spoilage, and is straightforward to clean and maintain. Horsepower needs scale with the size of the space being cooled, so the right system depends on your cooler's dimensions and typical inventory load.
