Everest ETR2 48 In. Side Mount Undercounter Refrigerator, 2 Solid Doors, 13 Cu. Ft., 16 Gauge Stainless Steel Worktop

The Everest ETR2 is the compact two door model in the ET Series of side mount undercounter refrigerators, spreading 13 cubic feet of chilled storage across two independently locking doors under a 16 gauge stainless steel worktop, all in a 47 1/2 inch cabinet. Two cooks can stage their own product behind their own 17 inch door while the top works as prep counter space, so a shared station stops being a traffic jam. The condensing unit rides in a housing at the left end and breathes through the front grille, so the cabinet backs flush against a wall or tucks under a counter in the standard 31 1/2 inch deep undercounter line.

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

The cooling system is a side mounted, self-contained and fully detachable Blizzard R290 condensing unit, and because the whole cartridge slides out, a service tech can replace the entire sealed system without on-site brazing instead of parking the box for days over a compressor problem. The 1/4+ horsepower compressor is rated at 1,926 BTU per hour and 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 while drawing less power, and a full-length air duct keeps cold air circulating evenly instead of pooling near the evaporator. Defrost runs automatically on a time-initiated, temperature-terminated cycle, the 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.

Two Solid Stainless Steel Doors with Pre-Installed Locks

Each 17 inch door opens its own side of the cabinet, so grabbing garnish from one end never spills cold air across the whole box, and with both doors open the cabinet needs just 47 inches of clear depth, less swing than a single wide door. The doors are heavy duty stainless steel inside and out with 2.5 inch high density polyurethane insulation, self-close through an adjustable torsion system, and carry snap-in magnetic gaskets that pop out for cleaning without tools. Frame heaters stop exterior moisture build up around the openings, the high strength recessed handles stay out of the walkway, and the pre-installed locks keep stock secure after close.

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

Behind the doors is an open spaced interior with no walls between compartments, so pans and bins of prepped product slide in without fighting dividers. Four epoxy coated steel wire shelves, two per section, sit on height adjustable stainless steel clips, and silicone coated, shatter-proof LED lighting throws bright, high color light through the cavity while adding almost no heat. The interior and exterior are heavy duty stainless steel with rounded corners, the bottom and rear are galvanized steel, and 2.5 inch high density polyurethane insulation fills the cabinet walls. The body stands 29 1/4 inches tall, or 34 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 33°F to 54°F with an Overheat Alarm

A multi-function digital controller with an easy to read LED display ships preset at 35°F and adjusts anywhere from 33°F to 54°F, covering everything from delicate produce to backup dairy. 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 (47 1/2 inches long) for worktop applications, a stainless steel double overshelf that adds two raised 45 by 13.5 inch shelves above the worktop, a 3 inch caster assembly in place of the standard 5 inch set, and height adjustable interchangeable legs from 3.5 to 6 inches.

Keep in mind the ETR2 holds refrigerated temperatures only, with a floor of 33°F, so frozen product belongs in the matching ETF2 freezer instead. The 17 inch doors favor split access over wide loads; the single door ETR1 gives a wider 22 3/4 inch opening in a smaller cabinet, the ETWR2 and three door ETR3 add capacity for bigger stations, and the ETR2-24 carries the same two door layout in a shallower 24 inch depth class for tight aisles. On its standard casters the unit stands 34 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 3.5 amps on a 9 foot cord, with no dedicated circuit needed.
