Everest ESPT-2G-2S 50 In. Pass-Thru Refrigerator, 2 Glass Front and 2 Solid Rear Doors, 48 Cu. Ft., Top Mount Blizzard R290

SKUESPT-2G-2S BrandEverest Refrigeration

The Everest Refrigeration ESPT-2G-2S Pass Thru Refrigerator

The Everest ESPT-2G-2S is a 50-inch pass-thru refrigerator for kitchens that load product from the back of house and pull it from the service side, so nobody walks around the cabinet in the middle of a rush. It is part of Everest's ES Series top mount reach-in family, and its four doors open into a single 48 cubic foot interior with no walls between sections, which means full sheet pans and bulk containers go wherever there is shelf space rather than where a divider allows. Two low emissivity glass doors face the service side for at-a-glance stock checks, while two solid stainless steel doors close off the loading side.

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

The condensing unit is a top mounted, self-contained Blizzard R290 cartridge that is fully detachable and replaceable in the field with no on-site brazing. 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. The cartridge runs natural R290 refrigerant with zero ozone depletion potential and a global warming potential of three.

Electronically commutated fan motors pull the cabinet to temperature quickly while drawing less power, and the auto defrost cycle starts on a timer and ends on temperature, so it runs only as long as the coil needs. The condensate pan maintains itself with no external drain line or electric heater, which is one less floor penetration in your install. An auto-reverse condenser fan supports compressor ventilation and helps keep the condenser coil clean between cleanings, and pressure relief devices let staff re-open a just-closed door instead of waiting out the vacuum.

Two Low-E Glass Front Doors and Two Solid Stainless Rear Doors

The front pair uses double pane, low emissivity glass that reflects UV rays to hold down cooling load, so your line confirms stock without opening a door and dumping cold air. The rear pair is solid stainless steel inside and out. All four doors are self-closing with an adjustable torsion system for a positive seal, carry high strength recessed handles, and come with pre-installed locks so stock stays put overnight. Frame heaters prevent exterior moisture build up, snap-in magnetic gaskets make gasket cleaning and replacement quick, and every door is field reversible.

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

Inside there are no dividing walls, just one open compartment with six epoxy coated steel wire shelves on height adjustable stainless steel clips, three per section. The interior and exterior are heavy duty stainless steel with rounded corners that will not snag knuckles or towels, the top and bottom are galvanized steel, and 2.5 inch high density polyurethane insulation fills both the cabinet walls and the doors. A full-length air duct and airflow guard keep cold air moving through the whole cavity, 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 33°F to 54°F with an Overheat Alarm

A multi-function digital controller with an easy to read LED display ships factory preset at 35°F and adjusts anywhere from 33°F to 54°F. An audible overheat alarm watches the compressor and condenser coil and sounds before a developing problem turns into lost 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, a gravity shelf and bottle organizer, 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 refrigerator only, holding 33°F to 54°F; the ES Series includes freezer and dual temperature versions if you need frozen storage. The pass-thru layout also assumes staff access on both sides, so if the unit will sit against a wall, a standard front-access reach-in from the same series is the better buy. It ships crated at 505 lbs on a roughly 50 by 34 inch footprint and stands 79 1/4 inches tall on its casters, so check door heights along the delivery path and plan a liftgate. Power is a standard 115V connection on a 9 foot cord, with no dedicated high-voltage circuit needed.

    About Reach-In Refrigerators

    Commercial reach-in refrigerators are essential in any professional kitchen. They keep ingredients cold, organized, and easy to grab during service. If you run a restaurant, hotel, catering business, or food truck, this is one of the first pieces of equipment you need. Look for units built for daily use, with strong compressors, solid door gaskets, and interiors that make the most of your storage space.

    Reach-in refrigerators come in one, two, or three door models. Single door units fit small kitchens or work as station coolers. Two door models cover most mid-size restaurants. Three door units are best for high-volume kitchens that need to store a lot of product and keep it easy to access during service.

    Glass door models let staff see what's inside without opening the door. This keeps temperatures steady and speeds up service. Pass-thru and roll-in models are good if your workflow needs something specific. Choose a unit based on how much you need to store, your available space, and the features that fit your daily routine.

     

    Common Types and Configurations

    • Single Door Reach-In Refrigerator: A compact option for smaller kitchens or dedicated prep stations. Typically holds 20 to 27 cubic feet of product and fits in tight spaces without sacrificing reliable cold holding performance.
    • 2 Door Reach-In Commercial Refrigerator: The most common configuration in full-service restaurant kitchens. Offers a balance of storage capacity and footprint, with most units ranging from 46 to 54 cubic feet.
    • 3 Door Reach-In Commercial Refrigerator: Built for high-volume operations that need maximum cold storage on the line. Ideal for large restaurant kitchens, hotels, and catering facilities with heavy ingredient turnover.
    • Glass Door Reach-In Refrigerator: Features one or more glass doors that allow staff to see stored product at a glance. Reduces unnecessary door openings, helping maintain consistent internal temperatures during service.
    • Pass-Thru Refrigerator: Accessible from both the front and back, making it a strong fit for kitchens where product moves between two stations or between a prep area and a service line.
    • Roll-In Refrigerator: Designed to accept sheet pan racks rolled directly into the cabinet. Used in high-output bakery, catering, and institutional kitchen settings where large batches need to be chilled quickly.

    What to Look at Before You Buy

    • Interior Capacity: Make sure the cubic footage matches what you actually need to store. Most restaurants do well with a two door unit in the 46 to 54 cubic foot range. High-volume kitchens may need a three door model or more than one cabinet.
    • Compressor Location: Top-mount compressors stay cooler and run more efficiently in hot kitchens. Bottom-mount units are easier to service but can run warmer if your kitchen gets hot.
    • Temperature Range: Most reach-ins hold between 33°F and 41°F. Make sure the unit keeps steady temps, even when you load it with warm product after prep.
    • Door Configuration: Solid doors insulate better and keep temps steady. Glass doors let you see inside and speed up workflow. Pick what fits your service style and how often staff need to get in and out.
    • Interior Shelving: Go for shelves that adjust and come out easily. Make sure they fit your pans and containers. Epoxy-coated wire shelves are standard and simple to clean.
    • Energy Efficiency: ECM fan motors and digital controls use less power over time. Look at the total cost to run the unit, not just the price tag.
    • NSF Certification: Many commercial reach-in refrigerators carry NSF certification, confirming they meet sanitation standards required by most local health codes. Check your local requirements before purchasing.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What temperature should a commercial reach-in refrigerator hold?

    A commercial reach-in should keep temps between 33°F and 41°F. Most health codes require food at or below 41°F to prevent bacteria. If your unit is well maintained, with good door seals and a working compressor, it should hold steady temps all day, even when busy.

    How long do commercial reach-in refrigerators last?

    A good commercial reach-in lasts 10 to 15 years if you take care of it. Keep door gaskets clean, clean the condenser coils, and don't overload the unit. Stick with brands known for build quality and easy-to-get parts, they last longer.

    What is the difference between a reach-in refrigerator and a walk-in cooler?

    A reach-in is an upright cabinet you open to grab what you need. A walk-in is a room-sized cooler you walk into. Use reach-ins for quick access on the line, and walk-ins for bulk storage and longer-term holding.
