Before the cold really sets in, it’s important to make sure your furnace is ready to keep your family warm and safe.</p> <p>At Sears Heating &amp; Cooling, we’ve been helping Columbus homeowners prepare for winter since 1950. Here’s a <strong>7-step furnace checklist</strong> every local homeowner should complete this fall.</p> <ol> <li><strong> Replace Your Furnace Filter</strong></li> </ol> <p>A dirty filter restricts airflow, making your furnace work harder and increasing your energy bill. For most homes, filters should be changed every 1–3 months. Switching to a fresh filter before winter ensures better efficiency and cleaner indoor air.</p> <ol start="2"> <li><strong> Clean Around the Furnace Area</strong></li> </ol> <p>Furnaces need space to breathe. Clear away boxes, storage bins, pet hair, or dust buildup from around your unit. This reduces fire risk and improves air circulation.</p> <ol start="3"> <li><strong> Check Your Thermostat</strong></li> </ol> <p>Test your thermostat by switching it to heat mode and setting it a few degrees higher than the current room temperature. Make sure it kicks on quickly and runs smoothly. If you have an older thermostat, consider upgrading to a smart thermostat for more control and lower energy costs.</p> <ol start="4"> <li><strong> Inspect Air Vents and Registers</strong></li> </ol> <p>Blocked vents make your furnace less efficient. Walk through your home and make sure registers are open and unobstructed by furniture, rugs, or curtains.</p> <ol start="5"> <li><strong> Listen for Strange Noises</strong></li> </ol> <p>Turn your furnace on and pay attention. Banging, rattling, or squealing sounds could indicate worn parts or potential issues that need a technician’s attention before winter.</p> <ol start="6"> <li><strong> Schedule a Professional Tune-Up</strong></li> </ol> <p>A fall furnace tune-up is the best way to avoid mid-winter breakdowns. During a tune-up, our Sears Heating &amp; Cooling technicians inspect all key components, clean critical parts, and test for safety issues like carbon monoxide leaks. Think of it as preventive maintenance that saves money in the long run.</p> <ol start="7"> <li><strong> Test Your Carbon Monoxide and Smoke Detectors</strong></li> </ol> <p>Because your furnace burns fuel, carbon monoxide safety is crucial. Check your detectors, replace old batteries, and confirm they’re working properly. It’s a simple step that could save lives.</p> <p><strong>Why Fall Maintenance Matters</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Lower energy bills</strong> from improved efficiency</li> <li><strong>Fewer emergency repairs</strong> during peak season</li> <li><strong>Longer lifespan</strong> for your furnace</li> <li><strong>Peace of mind</strong> knowing your family will stay safe and warm</li> </ul> <p><strong>Ready for Winter in Columbus?</strong></p> <p>Don’t wait until the first snow to discover your furnace isn’t up to the task. Schedule your fall furnace tune-up with Sears Heating &amp; Cooling today, and enjoy a stress-free winter.</p> <p> Uncategorized Aaron Columbus Homeowners Are Turning to Reddit for HVAC Advice https://www.searsheatingcooling.com/columbus-homeowners-are-turning-to-reddit-for-hvac-advice/ Sears Heating and Cooling – Columbus, Ohio urn:uuid:23348dc1-37a6-1dc3-672d-e358034e05c6 Thu, 21 Aug 2025 08:06:36 -0400 <p>&#160; When it comes to choosing an HVAC company, Columbus homeowners want more than a polished ad or a star rating on Google.

Here’s a look at some of the feedback shared recently:</p> <ul> <li><strong>“Sears Heating and Cooling (this is NOT the Sears department store you know, no affiliation). Great group of guys, family owned. Used them in multiple houses now and will continue to do so.”</strong> – <em>u/Cavi_, r/Columbus</em></li> <li><strong>“Sears was speedy and helpful for us. Fixed our unit rather than recommending a new one. Always appreciate that.”</strong> – <em>u/Un_Original_Coroner, r/Columbus</em></li> <li><strong>“We used Sears Heating and Cooling for a whole new system 4 years ago… Certainly a different experience from when they installed the old units 26 years ago. They’ve fixed things other companies said had to be replaced. Totally worth it to get a no-pressure second opinion from them.”</strong> – <em>u/Fanpuck33, r/Columbus</em></li> </ul> <p>Across the board, homeowners highlight the company’s professionalism, honesty, and deep local roots. And one thing is clear—Sears Heating &amp; Cooling is proudly independent, family owned and <em>not</em> affiliated with the old department store chain.</p> <p><strong>The Big Takeaway</strong></p> <p>What stands out most in these conversations is how often people mention that Sears Heating &amp; Cooling is a trusted, family-owned business that puts customer care first. Columbus homeowners appreciate the honest approach, the quality of work, and the peace of mind that comes from working with a company that has served the community for decades.</p> <p><strong>Why This Matters for Homeowners</strong></p> <p>When you’re deciding who to let into your home to repair or replace your HVAC system, real stories matter more than taglines. That’s why Reddit’s growing role in the decision-making process is so important. The platform offers a level of trust and transparency that can’t be matched by traditional advertising.</p> <p><strong>Thinking About Your Next HVAC Project?</strong></p> <p>If you’re researching your options, check out what your neighbors are saying—not just on Google, but on Reddit too.

Nikki Tadema, Chief Operational Officer, at City Harvest told us, “City Harvest has grown two-fold over the past few years and with COVID-19 hitting us almost a year ago we have seen a huge increase in demand for our services to those in need in our London communities.  </p><p>“We had plans to increase our warehouse space pre COVID-19 and realised that our need to increase our service meant we needed a larger space.  We managed to secure a fabulous new depot on our existing site that saw us move from just under 4000 square foot to just under 14000 square foot.  Hence we needed a Ferrari of fridges so the search began.</p><p>“As we were led by a grant to build our new home we had to go out to tender and have at least three companies bid for the work. It was one of the easiest decisions ever. Gary, from Royale, arrived to do a site visit and compared to the others he was just excellent and instantly knew what I was after. Price was a contributing factor, but the main decision came from him offering to project manage the whole fit out for me.  A huge help as being a not-for-profit we don’t have the luxury of bringing in a project manager and this helped me so much, I was still able to run our full operation.”</p><p>Gary, Commercial Director, at Royale added, “It was lovely to meet Nikki and help design a solution to manage the amount of food City Harvest need to sort, prep and distribute on a daily basis. We added a temperature regulated prep room, adjoining a freezer cold room and cold room designed with floor guides to sort and store the food. We also installed Daikin air conditioning in the new offices and installed a storeroom and kitchen, made with food safe cold room panels, within the main warehouse.</p><p>"The whole project has been a joy to work on and it was made even more special knowing we were able to play a part in creating this amazing space to in turn help and support many vulnerable people. City Harvest really is an amazing charity.”</p><p>Nikki, concluded, “The on-site engineers were just fantastic, nothing was too much and they were an absolute pleasure to have on site, I’m over the moon to see the initial ideas come to life. I would definitely work with Royale again and have already recommended them to DEFRA, should any other charities need their services.”</p></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-image field-type-image field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Image:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><img typeof="foaf:Image" src="https://www.royaleref.com/sites/royaleref.com/files/styles/thumb_720x295/public/ch4%20%282%29.jpg?itok=i1qGycXM" width="auto" height="auto" alt="" /></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-categories field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Categories:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><a href="/taxonomy/term/9" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Air Conditioning</a></div><div class="field-item odd"><a href="/taxonomy/term/5" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Refrigeration</a></div></div></div> Sarah Millard New Construction Plumbers in Southbury CT 06488 http://suzannezehrius.blogspot.com/2020/02/new-construction-plumbers-in-southbury.html My Reading List: Read and Unread urn:uuid:7f7ebc85-841b-85db-a7fc-727f9a8a8bc8 Wed, 26 Feb 2020 17:16:28 -0500 Unread Burst and Frozen Pipe Repair Southbury CT 06488 http://suzannezehrius.blogspot.com/2020/02/burst-and-frozen-pipe-repair-southbury.html My Reading List: Read and Unread urn:uuid:0521ef7a-fa8e-4edb-2b0e-e440c873bad5 Wed, 26 Feb 2020 16:16:09 -0500 Unread Toilet Repair Southbury CT 06488 - (203) 496-4982 http://suzannezehrius.blogspot.com/2020/02/toilet-repair-southbury-ct-06488-203.html My Reading List: Read and Unread urn:uuid:8625ea88-8103-fdbb-7599-0a7e8ab70475 Wed, 26 Feb 2020 14:16:13 -0500 Unread Gas and Oil-Fired Boiler Repair in Southbury CT 06488 http://suzannezehrius.blogspot.com/2020/02/gas-and-oil-fired-boiler-repair-in.html My Reading List: Read and Unread urn:uuid:24edabde-3318-37a0-51b9-5d7f5655b538 Wed, 26 Feb 2020 14:16:10 -0500 Unread Boiler Installation in Southbury CT 06488 http://suzannezehrius.blogspot.com/2020/02/boiler-installation-in-southbury-ct.html My Reading List: Read and Unread urn:uuid:657cb16b-6f2d-72b4-c10f-9f034257e54a Wed, 26 Feb 2020 13:16:19 -0500 Unread Boiler Cleaning &amp;amp; Maintenance Southbury CT 06488 http://suzannezehrius.blogspot.com/2020/02/boiler-cleaning-maintenance-southbury.html My Reading List: Read and Unread urn:uuid:13099e24-3b12-55b9-5f61-8cb3ff33e4a4 Wed, 26 Feb 2020 12:16:23 -0500 Unread Bathroom Remodeling Plumbers in Southbury CT 06488 http://suzannezehrius.blogspot.com/2020/02/bathroom-remodeling-plumbers-in.html My Reading List: Read and Unread urn:uuid:08a294d2-12e9-7eee-8380-32cb486eb80e Wed, 26 Feb 2020 00:16:24 -0500 Unread Are You Looking for a 24 Hour Plumber in Southbury CT? http://suzannezehrius.blogspot.com/2020/02/are-you-looking-for-24-hour-plumber-in.html My Reading List: Read and Unread urn:uuid:7d1b70a2-d33c-5e07-85ee-1408bc7297ce Tue, 25 Feb 2020 21:16:12 -0500 Unread Working with Royale: How we serve and support catering and food retail businesses https://www.royaleref.com/blog/working-royale-how-we-serve-and-support-catering-and-food-retail-businesses Royale Refrigeration blogs urn:uuid:dac71283-5b66-5633-84e1-d580bc8aaf8f Tue, 28 Jan 2020 10:18:53 -0500 <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p>We’ve been fortunate to work with quite the range of companies since Royale’s creation over 30 years ago! Today we wanted to take a little time to talk about the work and value we offer to companies that need reliable refrigeration support. As you might expect in the UK, this is a serious requirement that underpins the success of many of the brands and franchises we know and love as consumers.</p><p>The interesting thing about this kind of work is that it’s far from uniform. While refrigeration support might sound like a standard thing, every company has its own focus and requirements – what works for one won’t for the other. We’ve talked about this in detail before in other blogs from the team, such as when we performed renovation projects for a new-build for <a href="https://www.royaleref.com/blog/shopping-around-royale%E2%80%99s-contribution-stunning-new-build-project" target="_blank">Cobbs Farm</a> or our creation of the Isle of Wight’s first-ever <a href="https://www.royaleref.com/blog/worth-wight-royale-builds-isle-wight%E2%80%99s-first-dry-ageing-room" target="_blank">dry-ageing refrigeration room</a>.</p><p>With that said, though, there are a few general things we get right and offer uniquely to these kinds of businesses, be they small to medium businesses or larger franchises! Let’s go through a few of them.</p><p><strong>Peace of mind support</strong></p><p>If your fridge breaks down, it’s a pain you’ll have to fix soon. If you’re a franchise manager and your building’s refrigeration system fails, it’s an immediate priority that could cost you thousands in lost produce every day – and even more in missed business.</p><p>Reliability is worth its weight in gold. Simply put, track records matter – and ours is one we’re proud of indeed. We’ve been rock steady for over 30 years, keeping Royale in the family and employing staff who very rarely move on to greener pastures. That’s given us a unique grounding in reliable skill, making our refrigeration support arm a prized asset that keeps businesses going across the country.</p><p><strong>Any time, the first time </strong></p><p>It’s well and good to offer reactive callouts if a client’s refrigeration system should break; it’s another thing entirely to offer that service 24 hours a day, seven days a week – and to boast an approximately 90% first-time fix rate while we’re at it. That first-time fix rate means a lot; as we mentioned before, thousands of Pounds in losses are measured in minutes and hours where refrigeration systems are concerned.</p><p>Part of the reason we boast such a high first-time fix rate is, we think, down to how we stock our callout vehicles. To put it simply, we don’t skip on parts. We trust the experience of our engineers, letting them dictate what to stock their vehicles with based on their expected work.</p><p><strong>Experienced staff</strong></p><p>We trust our people. All our engineers are qualified in leading manufacturer equipment and come from a variety of system experience. We’re grateful to have a depth and breadth of knowledge in our teams, allowing us to place team members in roles that best draw on and develop their existing skills.</p><p>We’re far from old-school, either; our engineers work with modern tablets and smartphones, making it possible for them to send job details, updates and requests through to our central office in minutes. This means that we can quickly respond to issues and requests for our clients.</p><p><strong>Our commitment to the environment</strong></p><p>We’ve long been an environmentally conscious company here at Royale. We’re aware of the potential our work has to impact the environment and we’re proud to be always at the forefront of sustainable technology within our industry, be that through promoting and encouraging the use of greener refrigerants or staying abreast of new developments towards a greener industry.</p><p>You can read more about our efforts to minimise the environmental impact of our work <a href="https://www.royaleref.com/blog/recycling-royale-what-we-do-minimise-environmental-impact-our-work" target="_blank">in this article</a>.</p><p><strong>Want to know more?</strong></p><p>A little more about us then. We’ve served clients across the country well via our refrigeration support and reactive callout services, and we’re proud to say as much. It’s all down to the skill and commitment of our staff, after all!</p><p>If you’d like a chat with one of us directly about your own requirements and how we might be able to help, do feel free to reach out.

The Bunker, part of Cyberfort Group, provides corporate data storage from its military-grade secure data centres in Berkshire and Kent. But what does ultra-secure data storage have to do with cooling solutions, you say?</p><p>That’s where we come in.</p><p><strong>Cyberfort Group: Solving a modern data challenge</strong></p><p>It’s no secret we’re in a digital age now. Modern businesses are all online, all the time – a fact that brings significant vulnerability and risk. How much risk, you say? According to one study, cybercrime generated approximately 1.5 trillion Dollars for criminals in 2018. It’s big business that damages legitimate enterprises every day.</p><p>Companies like Cyberfort – and The Bunker data centre in Berkshire – provide end-to-end data security in this challenging environment. While we can’t quite name too many names, it’s safe to say they count several global business titans as their customers.</p><p><strong>Why was Royale needed?</strong></p><p>Simon, our Managing Director, managed this project personally. What many don’t realise is that data isn’t simple to store; besides rigorous cybersecurity protections, large data centres generate tremendous amounts of heat that needs to be controlled with absolute precision.</p><p>The value of a data and cloud storage centre like The Bunker is in its reliability. Physical security is impressive, to say the least; Royale’s engineers all needed to be vetted before entering the area to work, and any new engineers or participants in the Royale project were personally escorted in and out of the premise.</p><p>The rows of servers and hardware provide a similar digital promise. Simply put, companies pay Cyberfort to guarantee that their business-critical data is available and secure twenty-four hours a day, three hundred and sixty-five days a year. That means redundant systems, exceptional monitoring and management and rock-solid cybersecurity that never sleeps.</p><p><strong>Cooling The Bunker</strong></p><p>Picture the scene: A large room filled with rack after rack of contemporary storage. Room 121, the key area of Royale’s work, is a high-revenue room for the business – and it needed an upgrade.</p><p>Five cooling systems were in place; all were removed. Replacing these with eight modern units, all managed by a Daikin RTD-10 control strategy, was more than a little challenging for one key reason: it had to be done without shutting Room 121 down for a single second.</p><p><strong>The RTD-10 solution</strong></p><p>Daikin’s RTD-10 is a real piece of kit; specifically designed for IT server rooms, it enables Cyberfort to manage each cooling unit individually inside The Bunker.</p><p>Depending on load and active use of the server equipment, fan coils inside the server room can operate on rotation. Not only is this more energy efficient, but it helps to maintain precise temperatures in a room with constantly changing climatic conditions. This approach to temperature control also helps to maximise the lifetime of the system.</p><p>The RTD-10 control solution provides advanced fault monitoring when integrated with The Bunker’s building management system. The value of this type of monitoring and control is immeasurable for Cyberfort.</p><p><strong>Challenge accepted</strong></p><p>This was a delicate task, as you can imagine. By installing eight replacement systems alongside the five existing units, our team carefully switched each older system over to control by our newer, more effective units – one by one, and while maintaining an exact air temperature of 21 degrees.</p><p>The project took four weeks to complete. Four weeks of constant diligence, careful work and the slow but steady transfer of old systems to new, all the while maintaining that specific temperature. Stakes were high; simply put, data centres that aren’t cooled will spike in temperature shockingly fast. Servers may literally melt in their racks, destroying hardware and the data within.</p><p><strong>Job done</strong></p><p>We’re proud to say it went without a hitch – at the cost of more than a few sleepless nights across the Royale team! Our result was the installation of the desired cooling solution with no dip in performance throughout the period of our work.</p><p>Going forward, Cyberfort has an enhanced cooling system that is more efficient and boasts more sophisticated security and alarm control. That capability adds value to their offering, helping to guarantee to their clients the kind of constant security and access that matters so much in a business world rife with cybercrime.</p><p><strong>Thanks for reading!</strong></p><p>The Bunker was one of our more unique bespoke projects, there’s no doubt about that.</p><p>If you’d like to chat with us about your own heating and cooling requirements, and whether we might be able to support you with a solution to them, we’re right here and happy to talk.

With that in mind, we’re running the risk of inflating the ego of one of our key team members, Gary Millard!</p><p>It’s been more than a few years since Gary first started working with our family, and he’s risen to a place of enormous value for the company and its direction. Here’s the scoop on how that happened.</p><p><strong>Twenty years ago, far, far away</strong></p><p>How time passes! Twenty years ago, our current Managing Director Simon helped Gary by providing him with a position with Royale as an apprentice. Starting from scratch, this led to a thirteen-year stretch with the company which saw Gary build the skills necessary to excel in this field.</p><p>As we’ve covered before, our industry can be complex; it takes real time to develop the technical understanding (and qualifications) that are needed to build a truly bespoke and reliable heating and cooling system.</p><p><strong>Moving on</strong></p><p>At Gary’s thirteen-year point with us, he parted ways. This happened in 2014, seeing Gary strike out on his own as a freelancer specialising in custom coldroom systems. Managing his own projects and living the self-employed life for five years is no small accomplishment in this line of work, and none of us were surprised to see him excel despite the challenges before him.</p><p>During the latter part of his freelancing years, Gary also worked for Celltherm, a leading coldroom manufacturer. Can you see the trend occurring here? Coldrooms are challenging jobs to handle; it takes a high degree of practical experience and knowledge to create coldroom solutions that maximise floor space and efficiency for the end client.</p><p>Unsurprisingly, Gary was snatched up by that company but ultimately (and thankfully for us) came back to join the Royale family.</p><p><strong>Back with Royale</strong></p><p>It’s been about a year since Gary returned to us as our new Operations Manager. Recognising the work he’d put in during his freelancing and Celltherm years, we’ve been happy to push him up to the next phase of his career by promoting him to our Commercial Director.</p><p>It’s great news all round. Gary adds huge value to Royale in terms of his technical knowledge, project management and customer support abilities, so we’re glad he’s here in this position with us.</p><p><strong>Talking skillsets</strong></p><p>Self-employment is never easy, and the flip side of that challenge is that Gary’s acquired extensive experience in his specialist coldroom knowledge, service-side skills and client-facing talent.</p><p>We saw these new abilities really shine in our <a href="https://www.royaleref.com/blog/worth-wight-royale-builds-isle-wight%E2%80%99s-first-dry-ageing-room">recently discussed job for Cheverton Farm</a>. One of our many bespoke projects, this challenge involved a particularly demanding blend of exact specifications and close, regular contact and briefing with the client. Thanks to the work of all our teams involved and Gary’s management skill, things went smoothly and we delivered a great finished solution.</p><p>Piecing together such complex requirements is, we’ll say again, not something just any company can do. Clients love Gary, and we’re looking forward to a great 2020 and beyond with him by the helm as our Commercial Director.</p><p>With this fresh capability on-board, we’re eager to help businesses grow through our providing of effective, bespoke heating and cooling solutions.</p><p><strong>Thanks for reading</strong></p><p>We hope you’ve found this little run-down interesting! We’re proud of our team at Royale, and we think it’s only fair to speak up when recognition is deserved.

In this instalment, we’re talking about a site-wide chiller installation recently completed for Longacres in Bagshot – the largest independent garden centre in the south of England.</p><p><strong>Out with the old, in with the new</strong></p><p>Temperate control systems are reliable by nature, but invariably the time comes to repair and replace. Longacres Garden Centre is such an example, having made use of their previous chiller for over a decade before deciding that a more modern, eco-friendly system was a worthy investment.</p><p>In Longacres’ case, the Royale team recommended a top-of-the-line BlueBox chiller as a replacement. The BlueBox product line is known for its temperature consistency, reliability and energy-efficiency.</p><p>Importantly, the chiller we chose for the task can heat and cool large areas at the same time – a must-have for the temperature sensitive plant products stocked in this huge indoor site.</p><p><strong>Bacteria blockers</strong></p><p>Carefully removing an older system can be a challenge, so our engineers conducted a thorough assessment of the existing environment. The assessment led our engineers to flush the piping that would be connected to the new chiller to ensure that it was completely free of bacteria.</p><p>Royale’s project management team contacted the local authority for authorisation to discharge the old water before flushing the pipework to remove bacteria that had built up over ten years, since the previous chiller was installed.</p><p>The new BlueBox system provided by Royale offers an excellent upgrade for Longacres that will perform more efficiently and cost less than the previous chiller for years to come – the ideal result, simply put!</p><p><strong>Talking scale</strong></p><p>Longacres Garden Centre is over 3,000 square metres, stocked with valuable plants, shrubbery and flowers that are extremely temperature sensitive, meaning a large part of this sizeable building required precision temperate control, twenty-four hours a day.</p><p>Underfloor heating goes hand in hand with chilling fan coils to maintain stock and stop flowers from wilting. Thousands of Pounds of stock rely on the system to stay fresh, with the same amount arriving every week directly from Holland.</p><p>Working around footprints and floor layouts is rarely straightforward, and it’s the experience of our engineers that produces a proposed system that’s energy-efficient, easily maintained, reliable and affordable for our clients.</p><p><strong>All done!</strong></p><p>The Royale team responsible for working with Longacres Garden Centre installed a new system that was easier to maintain and more energy efficient than the old system.</p><p>If you’d like to have a chat with us about anything cooling, heating or HVAC related you can reach us at <a href="mailto:info@royaleref.com">info@royaleref.com</a> or by phone on 01635 551446.

In a real shocker of a plot twist, today we’re talking about just why refrigeration matters so much to the much-loved public house. There’s a lot going on, from ice rooms to bar fridges and freezer machines, so keep reading!</p><p><strong>Beverage issues</strong></p><p>First and foremost, warm beer is almost a criminal offence (in most parts of England, at least!) and nobody likes being told that drinks are off the menu. It’s a supply chain puzzle; kegs can take up to two days to chill to required temperatures, and pubs often operate off a consignment system – the goods keep coming regardless of sales!</p><p>Pub refrigeration systems face a lot of use around the clock; an issue made more relevant by the constant entering and exiting of cooling areas. The heat exchange that occurs when ‘outside’ air briefly mixes with a chilled interior can stress a system, meaning pub cooling solutions must be tough and reliable to face the demand. Even smaller units are affected by this.</p><p>And you’d better believe that customers want their drinks; beer alone is rising in popularity at a significant rate in the UK. Craft beers have exploded in popularity, with a 20% increase in the registering of trademarks for such alcohol seen in recent years. Waitrose has boosted its range of specialist beers by 27% in response to a similar decision made by Tesco. People love beer, and they love it cold.</p><p><strong>Food matters</strong></p><p>Food is far from trivial, either, where refrigeration is concerned. A 2019 quarterly report, Pub Brand Monitor by MCA, tells us that over a quarter of dinners out are at pubs. Large chains like JD Wetherspoon are well-oiled operations, bringing in and cooking literally tonnes of food every week.</p><p>Chilling foods is mandatory to stop harmful bacteria and food spoilage. Different units, too, must be carefully installed and calibrated; fridges at 1°C and display cabinets at 5°C, for instance. Maintenance contracts come into their own here; systems and units should be regularly checked – pubs that skip on this run the risk of losing their stock should a system underperform or break on them. Not nice when your prized pub is stocking thousands of Pounds of produce and drink at any given time!</p><p><strong>Cellar solutions</strong></p><p>While food storage is important, it’s fair to say cellar cooling is vital. Pubs – or any establishment selling alcohol – rely on sophisticated systems to maintain temperatures at exact levels across large spaces.</p><p>Cellar cooling units are the answer. They work by pushing chilled air into the cellar in question, producing an optimum temperature for the storage of beer, wine, soft drinks and more. Importantly, they give pubs the option to use large cellars to refrigerate drinks where a standard refrigeration system wouldn’t be feasible – or would be too limited in size to get the job done properly.</p><p>They’re quite the systems. Many operate for over eighteen hours a day, with modern units able to incorporate small heating elements into the mix to ensure that, if required, the exact temperature can be reached by raising as well as cooling the cellar.</p><p>Fortunately for pub owners and restaurants, they’re quite affordable to maintain. They’re ubiquitous across the UK, being a relatively affordable initial purchase that solves the cold storage problem many pubs face – particularly ones which are older or listed buildings, of which there are many across the UK.</p><p><strong>In conclusion!</strong></p><p>A glimpse, then, of just how important refrigeration is to our beloved pubs! It’s easy to enjoy the front of the house, so to speak, without wondering about the hard work and investment that goes into keeping your favourite watering hole running.</p><p>We’re proud to support many pubs across the UK; they’re part of our cultural identity, after all!
