Tips for Maximising Your Display Refrigerator

A display refrigerator displays your cooled products to your customers. When properly used, it can be a wonderful way to increase sales and promote impulse buys. In this article, we’ll give you some tips on how to make that happen.

Place Expensive Items At Eye Level

If the fridge is a tall one, the three shelves around eye height should be filled with your best products and the ones that make you the most money. This will be what people see first and it will entice them to buy these products first.

Use Attractive Colours

People are drawn by colours, but certain colours, such as yellow, red, and green, are more appetising and stimulate hunger than blue or white. You can use this to help create a better display in your cold case. If your display fridge is lower, such as for cakes or meats, try laying out red or green mats below the food to draw the eye and enhance items that may not be as attractive. read more >

The Importance Of Replacing Your Old Boiler

You’ve likely heard that you should replace a boiler that is over a decade old, but is it really necessary? If your boiler is still functional, you may prefer not to worry about it and wait. However, this will end up costing you more in the long run, even if your boiler is perfectly functional at the moment. There are a few reasons to replace an old boiler and while it may not be an urgent thing if you need to save up money first, it is definitely high on the list of priorities.

More Expensive

This is a fact. When boilers age, they not only lose efficiency but new models of boilers are designed to be more efficient. This means that a 15-year-old boiler could end up losing nearly half its efficiency and that is a whole lot of energy your boiler is wasting. You’re essentially paying for heat and hot water that you don’t even get to use. read more >

How To Maintain Your AC Unit

Designing A HVAC System: What’s Involved?

While a simple building may have a minimal HVAC system installed, most homes and offices will require a proper HVAC system design. This means there are many ways to create a system that will work, but there are just as many factors to consider.

What To Consider In HVAC Design?

The first thing the HVAC professional must do is look at the best type of air conditioning system for the space. This will depend on the size of the building and whether the system will work for the entire building or have areas for each system.

Ducts & Ventilation

The engineer must examine any existing ducts or ventilation options. If the system is being designed from the ground up, then the technician must plan for where each vent will go to maximise efficiency. read more >

How To Stay Cool While Your AC is Being Repaired

No one wants to have their air conditioning go out in the middle of summer, but that’s exactly when it is most likely to happen. It may take some time to repair the system, so in the meantime, you’ll need to learn some new tricks for staying cool.

Portable Air Conditioner

There are some portable air conditioners that could be rented as needed. While these are small and only good for one room, the portable air conditioner can certainly keep you comfortable until the main AC is back on.

Take Cool Showers

Feeling overheated? A tepid shower will help your body cool down. If you prefer, sink into a cool bath and this can also bring your temperature down. As a bonus, cool water is great for dyed hair and can be stimulating for your skin. Just avoid cold water, since that can cause your body to take steps toward raising your temperature, which is the opposite of what you want. read more >

How Large Should Your Cold Room Be?

Cold rooms are an essential part of any commercial kitchen, but they can also be used in labs or other applications. If you have a large number of items that must be kept cool, you’ll want a place to put them. A cold room is an ideal solution.

One of the biggest questions people face is what size of cold room do they need? While you may feel that bigger is better, that’s not always the case. For example, you don’t want to cool large amounts of space where you have no products. At the same time, you do want to allow for possible expansion in the future. So, how do you determine the best size of cold room for your building? read more >
