When it comes to outfitting your foodservice operation with reliable and efficient refrigeration, making the right choice is crucial. Efficiency, durability, and consistency are critical benefits of selecting the right units. Arctic Air's back bar refrigerators, direct draw dispensing refrigerators, bottle coolers, and glass mug frosters are designed to meet these needs, offering top-of-the-line performance at an incredible value.

The profit margins for bars and restaurants off of the sales of drinks are high. In fact, most beverage programs aim for a profit between 75 and 80 percent. Having the right equipment behind the bar can make or break these profits. And with Arctic Air, bartenders can serve the best cocktails, beer, and wine to keep customers happy and buying.

Bar refrigeration cabinets by Arctic Air are crafted to bring commercial-grade performance to your establishment. Each unit undergoes rigorous testing to meet NSF standards and passes numerous quality control inspections throughout the manufacturing process. This commitment to quality ensures that every Arctic Air product delivers reliable, long-lasting performance.
