LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug the merchandiser and remove all product. Wipe shelves and interior with a mild detergent and warm water; rinse and dry. Vacuum condenser area and clean vents to keep coils efficient. Use non-abrasive cleaner on exterior vinyl and tempered glass. Check door seals for wear and replace if needed. Clean weekly to reduce bacteria, lower fire risk from grease, cut energy use, extend equipment life, and help pass CSA and health inspections.#@@#Additional Info#@#Beverage Air's VMHC-18-1-B open-air merchandiser offers 18.6 cu. ft. capacity with a 52"W x 31.75"D x 83.38"H size, five adjustable shelves, LED lighting, maintenance-free condenser, automatic defrost, R-290 refrigerant, and a 36°F–40°F range.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Stop settling for cramped display space and inconsistent cooling. This vertical open-air merchandiser combines a practical footprint with stable operating temperatures to sustain product quality and streamline front-of-house replenishment. Operators will notice consistent 36°F - 40°F conditions across an 18.6 cubic feet interior that supports high-visibility merchandising without compromising food safety.
#@@# Capacity Optimization#@#
The design delivers 18.6 cubic feet of usable volume across a 52-inch width and five shelf tiers, enabling dense product presentation and straightforward stock rotation. Managers can place multiple product facings per shelf to maximize sell-through while maintaining clear sight lines for customers.
#@@# Temperature Control#@#
The unit maintains a regulated 36°F - 40°F temperature range to preserve perishable items and comply with safety standards. Technicians will value automatic defrost and a maintenance-free condenser that reduce service interventions while preserving thermal performance.
#@@# Cooling System Efficiency#@#
The system uses R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant paired with two 1/3 HP compressors to achieve reliable cold retention with a lower environmental impact. Facility engineers benefit from reduced energy draw at 115 volts and single-phase power compatibility for simplified installation.
#@@# Merchandising Visibility#@#
Tempered thermal glass side panels and LED interior lighting enhance product appearance while minimizing heat gain. Retail teams can utilize the included price tag molding and five adjustable shelves to create clear, organized displays that improve customer selection.
#@@# Durability and Hygiene#@#
Exterior wraps in black vinyl and a painted steel interior resist wear from daily use and cleaning cycles, supporting a long service life in busy environments. Cleaning crews will appreciate the ETL-Sanitation listing and smooth interior surfaces that simplify sanitation workflows.
