Why Buy A Used Commercial Refrigerator Instead Of A New One?

If you’re planning a new grocery franchise or independent store – or remodeling a new one – it might be time to think about purchasing a new set of commercial refrigerators.

But a commercial refrigerator doesn’t have to be new. In fact, stocking your facility with used refrigeration equipment can be a smart business move.

Here are three simple facts that might make you consider investing in a used commercial refrigerator:

A used commercial refrigerator is less expensive. Budgets are getting tighter – and you’ve got to trim the fat somewhere. Purchasing used refrigeration equipment can have a wonderful impact on your bottom line. And when you buy a used refrigerator from Perfectemp, your low price comes with the assurance of a warranty program that rivals that of most new refrigerator manufacturers.

A used commercial refrigerator can work just as well as a new one. When the technicians at Perfectemp recondition a refrigeration unit, they take it through a multi-step quality control process, which includes:

• Stripping, cleaning and an overall operations check
• Testing every component individually, from the compressor to the condenser.
• Evacuation, pressurization and testing of refrigeration coils
• Replacement of all light bulbs and shields
• Testing and configuration of all TX valves
• Installation of new rigid cart bumpers

Our refurbishing engineers take their jobs very seriously, and a pre-owned refrigeration unit doesn’t leave our warehouse unless it’s like new.

A used commercial refrigerator is easier on the environment. There’s something in business called the “triple bottom line.” It’s the idea that a company’s success should take three factors into consideration: People, Profit and the Planet.

By purchasing used refrigeration equipment, you’re taking a substantial burden off the world’s burgeoning landfills, and reducing waste overall. Making such extended use of still-viable resources is a key component of doing sustainable business – and that’s something we can all be proud of.
