Delfield Commercial Refrigeration Door Gaskets

Commercial refrigeration and freezer units used in catering establishments depend on Delfield door gaskets to keep their efficiency and performance. These seals form a tight fit between the door and the unit so that cold air doesn’t leak out and warm air doesn’t get in. This is important to maintain food quality and to reduce energy consumption. Door gaskets are heavily used in catering equipment such as refrigerators, freezers, and cold rooms. For the most part, they are constructed from durable materials capable of weathering numerous openings and closings as well as exposure to different temperatures and degrees of humidity. Gaskets, which can crack, become worn, and dirty, damage to the gasket can affect the equipment’s performance, and may also cause increased energy costs over time. Replacing a damaged Delfield refrigerator door gasket is a simple process that can greatly increase the equipment’s efficiency. To keep your catering equipment at its best, you’ll need regular inspections and timely replacements to prevent food spoilage and prolong the life of your appliances.
