Designed with the needs of commercial kitchens in mind, Everest’s models provide functionality and quality to support daily workflows.
What are Undercounter Refrigerators?
Undercounter refrigerators are compact units designed to fit beneath standard countertops, usually measuring 34-36 inches in height. These appliances utilize forced air refrigeration systems, where fans circulate cool air evenly, maintaining consistent temperatures between 32°F and 40°F. High-efficiency compressors and evaporators enhance energy conservation while ensuring rapid cooling, with many models using eco-friendly R-290 refrigerant for reduced environmental impact. Equipped with precision temperature controls and often digital displays, they ensure that perishable items stay within safe temperature ranges.
The durable stainless steel exteriors of these refrigerators make them resistant to corrosion and easy to clean, ideal for commercial spaces. Interiors often feature adjustable shelves or drawers to accommodate various sizes, and automatic defrost systems help prevent frost buildup. Many units have front-venting systems for easy installation against walls, while others come with casters for mobility. Self-closing doors with magnetic gaskets improve energy efficiency, making these refrigerators essential for kitchens, bars, and healthcare settings.

Prep Tables and Their Importance in Commercial Kitchens
Prep tables streamline food preparation by combining refrigerated storage with a spacious countertop. With compartments or drawers for maintaining ingredients at safe temperatures (33°F - 40°F), they are indispensable in busy kitchens. A stainless steel or food-grade polycarbonate prep surface accommodates quick and organized dish assembly, with recessed ingredient pans accessible via a lid or sneeze guard for easy access and food safety.
Prep tables are common in pizzerias, sandwich shops, and salad bars, where ingredients need to be within reach. Features like cutting board extensions, backsplash guards, and drainage systems reduce cross-contamination risks and maintain cleanliness. High-end models may include dual-zone refrigeration to keep different ingredients at optimal temperatures. Many models include casters and digital controls, enabling easy cleaning and reconfiguration for compliance with food safety standards.
