What Makes Adande Refrigeration Units Unique? A Comprehensive Overview October 23, 2024 When it comes to commercial kitchen refrigeration, Adande stands out with its innovative design and superior performance. Whether you're running a bustling restaurant or a small café, the right refrigeration is key to maintaining food quality, reducing wastage, and improving energy efficiency. In this article, we'll explore the unique features that set Adande units apart from other products on the market today. Six Versatile Models with Optional Accessories Adande offers six distinct refrigeration models, all stackable up to 3 high (excluding VCC Compact) each designed to meet the specific needs of various kitchen environments. Whether you need a slimline unit, a compact solution, or something in between, Adande has you covered: VLS: Slim line drawer height, side engine unit (2 x 1/1 GN 100mmD, 4 x 1/1 GN 65mmD) VCS: Standard drawer height, side engine unit (4 x 1/1 GN 100mmD, 6 x 1/1 GN 65mmD) VCR: Standard drawer height, rear engine unit (4 x 1/1 GN 100mmD, 6 x 1/1 GN 65mmD) VCM: Standard drawer height, rear engine unit (4 x 1/1 GN 100mmD, 6 x 1/1 GN 65mmD) VCC: Compact unit These models come with optional accessories, allowing you to tailor the unit to your kitchen's specific needs. Precision Temperature Control One of the standout features of Adande units is their adjustable temperature range, from -22°C to +15°C in 1°C increments. This precise control allows you to store various products at their optimal temperatures, significantly extending their shelf life and reducing food wastage. For example: Ice Cream: -18℃. Ice Cream Scoopable: -12℃. Seafood: 1℃. Beverages: 1℃. Meat: 2℃. Cheese: 15?℃. Each Adande unit operates independently, allowing you to use different compartments as freezers, chillers, or any combination thereof, depending on your needs. Patented Airflow System The patented airflow system in Adande units is a game-changer. Cold air drops into the insulated tub and is trapped, preventing it from spilling out when the drawer is opened. This system not only maintains a stable product temperature but also prevents drying out, freezer burn, and crystallization. As a result, food stays fresher for longer, leading to less wastage and more savings. Unmatched Energy Efficiency Adande units are 50% - 60% more energy efficient than most undercounter drawer and door units of equal capacity. This remarkable efficiency is due to Adande's unique refrigeration system, which "Holds in the Cold," reducing the need for constant temperature recovery. This translates into significant energy savings, lowering your operational costs. Built to Last: Heavy Duty Drawer Runners and Insulated Tubs Adande units are designed for the rigors of a commercial kitchen. The heavy-duty drawer runners are located outside the cold zone, preventing them from freezing up. This design also eliminates the risk of cross-contamination between drawers. Built with robustness in mind, these runners use ball bearings instead of traditional roller wheels, providing strong support even if side-impacted by kitchen trolleys. The insulated tubs are extremely strong and thick, with built-in airflow channels to ensure even cooling. They are easy to remove for cleaning, further enhancing the unit's practicality. Patented Seals and Protected Condenser Adande's patented ceiling-mounted magnetic drawer seals offer superior performance compared to traditional door or drawer units. The condenser is protected inside the cavity, away from heat, grease, water, and dust commonly found in kitchen environments. This protection extends the life of the unit and ensures consistent performance. Convenience at Your Fingertips Unlike traditional door chillers, Adande units place your products right at your fingertips when you open the drawer. No more bending or kneeling to reach items at the back, making your kitchen operations more efficient and less labour-intensive. Three Top Options for Versatile Use Adande units are available with three different top options, catering to various kitchen setups: Cover top: Ideal for undercounter use Worktop: Provides additional preparation space Heat shield top: Rated to 200°C, perfect for high-heat environments Comprehensive Warranty for Peace of Mind All Adande units come with a 2-Year Parts and Labour Warranty, including door seals. Additionally, an optional 3-Year Parts Only Warranty is available upon registration through the Stoddart website, giving you extra peace of mind. Compact Yet Capable For example, the Adande 2-drawer VCS2 model offers the same volume capacity as a traditional 4-door undercounter GN unit but with half the footprint. This compact design saves valuable kitchen space without compromising on storage capacity. Adande dual temperature refrigeration units offer a unique combination of versatility, energy efficiency, and durability, making them an excellent choice for any commercial kitchen. With a range of models and over 80 variations to choose from, precise temperature control, and features designed for long-term reliability, Adande sets the standard for refrigeration excellence.
