Customer questions about this product

How do I know if this unit will fit under or match the height of my ADA-height counter?

Many manufacturers offer their refrigeration equipment in several different height options to best meet your needs. Here's a breakdown of how we classify these different heights:

Counter Height: Work surface is more than 34" high; standard-height unit.

ADA Height: Work surface height is 34" or less; complies with ADA regulations.

Low Profile: Work surface height is less than 32"; designed to fit under most ADA-height counters.

If the unit you are purchasing does not have a flat top, such as a worktop or sandwich/salad prep table, it may affect whether or not it will align with certain countertops. To ensure that the product will meet your needs, please reference the product's literature and specifications.

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 by some manufacturers in response to the EPA’s Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) Program.

What does the “N” mean in the newer Continental Refrigerator model numbers?

This is a representation that the unit is using a “natural” or "Hydrocarbon" refrigerant. This would include both R290 and R600a refrigerants. They are being used as an eco-friendly refrigerant by Continental Refrigerator in response to the EPA’s Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) Program. Read more about this program in our blog post on Refrigerant Regulations.

Will my front-breathing Continental unit be ready to use as soon as it arrives?

Continental's front breathing units require simple field installation of the specialized ventilation system. Instructions for how to do this are contained in the Installation and Operations Manual, or you can also watch the how-to video posted on this item's page.

Continental Refrigerator SW36NBS-FB Details

This Continental Refrigerator SW36-N-BS-FB 36" front-breathing worktop refrigerator provides the extra workspace that your employees need, while also ensuring that your fresh, cold ingredients are stored within easy reach and at the proper temperatures. The sleek stainless steel top is ideal for preparing your most requested dishes, plus the 6" backsplash helps protect the wall from splatters to make cleaning up easier. This unit features 2 solid stainless steel doors so that your stored ingredients are always easily accessible, and with magnetic snap-in door gaskets, you can be sure of a tight seal.

With a front-breathing design, this worktop refrigerator brings versatility to your kitchen. Install this unit within counters or against walls to best utilize your space and use. Providing 10.3 cu. ft. of storage space, this refrigerator is perfect for storing your fruits, vegetables, condiments, meat, and dairy products. The cabinet is built with a stainless steel top and front, and the ends and case back are made of aluminum. For efficient storage, take advantage of the epoxy-coated steel shelves to better organize your food supplies. The interior is made of aluminum, and 2" non-CFC polyurethane foam insulation helps this unit maintain interior temperatures while also providing additional structural strength.

A 1/5 hp compressor allows this refrigerator to maintain food safe temperatures, even in kitchens where ambient temperatures reach 100 degrees Fahrenheit. This performance-rated refrigeration system uses eco-friendly R290 refrigerant and includes the automatic non-electric condensate evaporator, which helps to reduce energy consumption. This specialized refrigerant has an ozone depletion potential (ODP) of 0 and a global warming potential (GWP) of 3, making it an environmentally-responsible choice for your business. You also won't have to worry about the quality of the fin evaporator coil degrading, as it's both plasticized and non-corrosive. Four 3 5/8" casters come standard so that you can easily move this unit away from the wall for thorough cleaning and maintenance. This unit requires a 115V electrical connection. This unit includes an electronic controller with digital display and hi-low alarm.
