Everest ESF3 75 In. Reach-In Freezer, 3 Solid Doors, 71 Cu. Ft., Top Mount Blizzard R290

The Everest ESF3 is the capacity flagship of Everest's ES Series top mount reach-in freezer family, a 74 3/4 inch wide three door upright for banquet kitchens, commissaries and high-volume operations that stage an entire frozen program in one box instead of splitting it across two cabinets. Three solid stainless steel doors open onto one 71 cubic foot interior with no walls between compartments, so full sheet pans, bulk cases and backup stock go wherever there is shelf space rather than where a divider allows. Nine adjustable wire shelves keep product organized by station, and at under 32 inches deep the cabinet packs its volume along the wall instead of into the corridor.

Slide-Out Blizzard R290 Cartridge that Swaps without On-Site Brazing

Cooling comes from two top mounted, self-contained Blizzard R290 cartridges, each driving a 3/4 HP compressor rated at 2,690 BTU per hour. The cartridges are fully detachable and replaceable in the field with no on-site brazing, so unlike a conventional sealed system repair that can park a cabinet out of service while a refrigeration tech opens the circuit, a cartridge swap gets the box back to work the same visit. That matters even more on a freezer this size, where a long outage means a walk-in's worth of thawed inventory. Each cartridge runs natural R290 refrigerant with zero ozone depletion potential and a global warming potential of three.

Electronically commutated fan motors pull the cabinet down to temperature quickly while drawing less power, and the auto defrost heater starts on a timer and ends on temperature, so frost clears in exactly the time the coil needs and no longer. The condensate pan maintains itself with no external drain line or electric heater, which is one less floor penetration in your install. Auto-reverse condenser fans support compressor ventilation and help keep the condenser coils clean between cleanings, and pressure relief devices let staff re-open a just-closed door instead of waiting out the vacuum.

Three Solid Stainless Steel Doors with Self-Closing Torsion Hinges and Pre-Installed Locks

Each 24 inch door is heavy duty stainless steel inside and out with the same 2.5 inch high density polyurethane insulation as the cabinet walls, so the swing side of the box insulates as well as the rest of it. Three separate openings mean a cook pulling from one section never exposes the other two thirds of the cavity to kitchen air. The doors self-close through adjustable torsion systems for a positive seal, carry high strength recessed handles that will not catch passing carts, and come with pre-installed locks so stock stays put overnight. Frame heaters prevent exterior moisture build up around the openings, the snap-in magnetic gaskets pop out for cleaning or replacement without tools, and the doors are field reversible if your traffic flow runs the other way.

71 Cu. Ft. Open Interior Built in Heavy Duty Stainless Steel

Inside there are no dividing walls, just one open cavity with nine epoxy coated steel wire shelves on height adjustable stainless steel clips, three behind each door. The interior and exterior are heavy duty stainless steel with rounded corners that will not snag knuckles or towels, the top, bottom and rear are galvanized steel, and 2.5 inch high density polyurethane insulation fills the cabinet walls. A full-length air duct and airflow guard keep cold air moving through the whole cavity, an air circulation guard keeps the floor vents from being blocked by product, and silicone coated, shatter-proof LED lighting gives bright, high color illumination with low heat output. The cabinet rolls on four 5 inch swivel casters with locks on the front set, and leg stabilizers come standard.

Digital Controller that Holds -10°F to 54°F with an Overheat Alarm

A multi-function digital controller with an easy to read LED display ships factory preset at -4°F and adjusts anywhere from -10°F to 54°F. An audible overheat alarm watches the compressor and condenser coil and sounds before a developing problem turns into thawed product. Everest backs the unit with 3 year parts and labor, 5 year electrical, and 10 year compressor coverage, supported through its service agent network.

If the stock configuration does not match your line, Everest offers additional shelving, 3 inch locking swivel casters in place of the standard 5 inch set, height adjustable interchangeable legs from 3.5 to 6 inches, and a left hinged door option.

Keep in mind this is a freezer only; the ES Series includes refrigerator and dual temperature versions if part of your stock needs chilled rather than frozen storage. Three doors and 71 cubic feet are sized for an operation running serious frozen volume, while a kitchen with a single station or a standard line is better matched to the one and two door freezers in the same series. Power is a 115V connection on a 9 foot cord with a NEMA 5-20P plug, so make sure the circuit takes a 20 amp configuration before install day.
