A 2010-era upright fridge consumes ~3,500 kWh/year. A modern A+ equivalent: ~1,800 kWh. At Irish €0.30/kWh commercial day rate, that's €510/year saved per unit. Replace 4 old uprights and the payback is typically 18-30 months on the price difference.

When does walk-in make sense over uprights?▾

Walk-ins beat uprights at 3+ uprights worth of capacity (~3,000 L) OR when you need to walk inside to access stock (bulk produce, hanging meat). Below that, modern uprights are cheaper, more flexible and energy-equivalent per litre.

Do you handle old fridge disposal?▾

Yes — €85 per unit, includes WEEE-compliant disposal certificate. Mention it on your quote request and we coordinate with the delivery.

Old commercial fridges are the biggest single energy line in most professional kitchens. Replacing a 2010-era upright with a modern A+ rated equivalent typically cuts energy by 30-50% — measurable on the next bill. Add blast chilling, modern compressors, smart defrost and our Irish €0.30/kWh rate calculator on every product page shows the payback period before you buy.

Replace ageing fridges — cut energy, gain capacity.
