Everest ETBF1 28 In. Back Mount Undercounter Freezer, 1 Solid Door, 7.5 Cu. Ft., 16 Gauge Stainless Steel Worktop

The Everest ETBF1 is the single door starting point in Everest's ETB Series of back mount undercounter freezers, sized for line stations and tight back-of-house corners that need 7.5 cubic feet of frozen storage right where staff work. Instead of sending a cook across the kitchen to a reach-in freezer mid-rush, this 28-inch undercounter freezer tucks beneath the counter or stands on its own as a tabletop workspace, with a 16 gauge stainless steel worktop up top that takes daily use. Because the condensing unit breathes from the front, the cabinet sits flush against walls and under counters without starving the compressor for air.

Back Mounted Blizzard R290 Cartridge that Swaps without On-Site Brazing

The condensing unit is a back 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 tech opens the refrigerant 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, and the unit arrives pre-wired and ready to plug in on a standard 115V circuit.

Electronically commutated fan motors pull the cabinet down to temperature quickly while drawing less power, and a full-length air duct with an airflow guard keeps cold air circulating through the whole cavity. The auto defrost cycle starts on a timer, ends on temperature, and uses a defrost heater to clear the coil at freezer temperatures without operator input. A self-maintaining condensate pan needs no external drain line or electric heater, the auto-reverse condenser fan supports compressor ventilation and helps keep the condenser coil clean, and pressure relief devices let staff re-open a just-closed door instead of waiting out the vacuum.

One Solid Stainless Steel Door with a Pre-Installed Lock

The single 26 1/2 inch wide door is heavy duty stainless steel inside and out, filled with the same 2.5 inch high density polyurethane insulation as the cabinet walls. It self-closes through an adjustable torsion system for a positive seal, and the snap-in magnetic gasket pops out for cleaning or replacement without tools. Frame heaters stop exterior moisture build up around the opening even at freezer temperatures, the recessed handle stays out of the walkway, and the pre-installed lock keeps stock secure overnight.

7.5 Cu. Ft. Open Interior Under a 16 Gauge Stainless Steel Worktop

Inside is one open compartment with two epoxy coated steel wire shelves riding on height adjustable stainless steel clips, so shelf spacing follows your containers rather than the other way around. The interior and exterior are heavy duty stainless steel with rounded corners that will not snag knuckles or towels, the bottom and rear are galvanized steel, and 2.5 inch high density polyurethane insulation fills the walls. The cabinet body stands 30 1/4 inches tall, or 35 1/4 inches on its four 5 inch swivel casters with locks on the front set, so it rolls out for cleaning and locks in place during service.

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, so frozen stock stays hard through door swings at the height of service. 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 setup does not match your station, Everest offers additional shelving, a 4 inch high stainless steel backsplash (27 1/2 inches long) for worktop applications, a 3 inch caster assembly 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 built to hold product at its -4°F factory preset; if your station only needs chilled storage above freezing, the solid door refrigerator version of this cabinet covers that job. The ETBF1 is also the narrowest cabinet in the ETB freezer lineup; wider two and three door siblings in the same series add sections at the same depth when one door of storage is not enough. On its standard casters the unit stands 35 1/4 inches overall, so verify your counter clearance and use the optional 3 inch casters or adjustable legs where the line runs lower. Power is a standard 115V connection drawing 4.7 amps on a 9 foot cord, with no dedicated circuit needed.
