What Are Walk-In Mortuary Coolers?
Walk-in mortuary coolers are room-style refrigeration systems designed for facilities that need more capacity than a compact upright unit. The right choice depends on available room, required body capacity, access, delivery conditions, and the refrigeration environment.
- Multiple sizes available by the foot
- Durable construction and reliability
- Easy installation instructions
- Several door sizes available, including 36, 42, 48, 52, and 60 inches
Choose the Size and Door Width
Start by measuring the planned room, the route to the installation area, and the clearance needed to move equipment safely. Door width should support the facility’s handling workflow without creating avoidable clearance problems.
Measure the room and access route
Confirm the available footprint, doorway clearances, turning space, and any loading-dock or forklift limitations before requesting a configuration. For broad capacity comparisons, review the mortuary cooler buying guide.
Compare alternatives
For facilities that need a different format, compare the available mortuary coolers, including the 12-body upright mortuary cooler, the 3-body side-load upright mortuary cooler, and the 2-door, 6-body mortuary cooler.
What Does Installation and Delivery Require?
Walk-in coolers require delivery and assembly planning. Due to their size, assembled and unassembled coolers require a forklift at delivery when the facility does not have a loading dock. For unassembled coolers, the customer may be able to open the shipping crate and unload panels by hand, though additional shipping fees may apply if the truck must wait.
Plan refrigeration and electrical conditions
If the cooler will be placed in a non-air-controlled area where ambient temperatures can exceed 90 degrees, the upgraded compressor is required to help the cooler run more efficiently. Confirm the intended location and conditions when requesting a quote.
Plan assembly and access
Review the installation instructions, delivery route, unloading equipment, and assembly needs before placing an order. Vischer can help identify the information needed for a quote based on the facility and intended configuration.
