Avantco Refrigeration

There's no better way to ensure properly chilled plates or frosted glasses than by using the Avantco GF25-HC 26" black glass froster.

This glass froster is the perfect way to cool your salad plates before service or put a delicate layer of frost on your craft beer glasses. By frosting beer glasses, you can keep your craft beers cool and fresh tasting! Plus, salads served on chilled plates stay crisp longer so you never need to worry about limp, wilted lettuce leaves. While this unit is not for storing food or beverages, it is great for preparing the plates or glasses you will use to serve guests. Also, it does not need to be running continuously so your staff can turn it off after hours to save electricity!

Customer Q&A Ask a Question

I haven’t heard of R-290, R-600a, R-513a, or R-448A refrigerant before. What is it?
R-290 (also known as high purity propane or CARE 40) and R-600a (also known as refrigerant grade Isobutane or CARE 10) are hydrocarbon refrigerants. R513a (also known as Opteon XP10) and R-448A (also known as Solstice N40) are HFO (hydrofluoroolefin) refrigerants. They are being used as an eco-friendly refrigerant by some manufacturers in response to the EPA’s Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) Program. Read more about this program in our blog post on Refrigerant Regulations.
I'd like to install casters on this unit. Do I need 4 casters?
Yes, this item requires 4 casters. For convenience, we offer a kit with all of the casters and the M8-1.25mm x 20mm bolts required to mount them. See the Items You May Also Need section.
Does Avantco warrant this item for use in a food truck?

The best glass of beer is cool, crisp, and refreshing. With an Avantco glass froster, serving the perfect glass of beer is easy. Glass frosters chill glasses in bulk so that beverages are served cold and stay cold. Also great for chilling salad plates, frosters can help ensure that crunchy greens remain crisp, reducing the likelihood of customers receiving an embarrassing plate of wilted lettuce. With 25”, 36”, and 50” sizes, Avantco glass frosters are built to suit whatever space you have available. The frosters are also available in either a black coated steel or a type 430 stainless steel exterior, ensuring excellent durability. All units boast 1 or 2 stainless steel doors that slide open for easy access and lock closed for security. Each froster houses multiple epoxy-coated shelves, which are easy to load from the bottom up. Simply load the bottom shelf, place the second shelf on top, and then continue the process until the unit is full. To retrieve dishes, start from the top and work your way down. Avoid placing dishes on the floor of the unit. To maintain temperatures between -5 and 2 degrees Fahrenheit, each glass froster uses eco-friendly R290 refrigerant. Using a 1/4 or 1/3 hp compressor, these units are all bottom-mounted and built with an automatic defrost system for easy operation. Plus, the front-facing digital controller allows for intuitive operation and quick temperature monitoring. Designed to withstand commercial demands and to deliver the utmost convenience, a glass froster from Avantco is an easy way to provide a truly memorable culinary experience. From craft brews to local wild greens, your menu has never looked or tasted better!

Here's some basic settings you can make to your Avantco refrigerator in your restaurant. If you want to adjust the temperature, you hold set for one second and you'll see your low temperature limit. This unit is set to shut off at 33 degrees. If you want to have it shut off at a warmer temperature you can adjust it up. But it will not go below 33. You see when I get to 33 it just cycles back up to the top of the temperature range. Take this unit back down to 33 degrees. Press set to save it and you're back to your home screen.
