What Makes the Blizzard LS Upright Freezer Range a Reliable Choice for UK Catering and Hospitality Operations?
The Blizzard LS Upright Freezer range — featuring the LS40 and LS60 models — delivers dependable frozen storage solutions designed for UK restaurants, cafés, and catering kitchens. Built for commercial reliability, these upright freezers combine 304 stainless-steel exteriors with white ABS hygienic interiors, ensuring long-lasting performance, easy cleaning, and compliance with British food safety standards.
How Does the Blizzard LS Series Maintain Optimal Frozen Storage Performance?
Operating within a consistent –10°C to –20°C range, both models use a static cooling system powered by eco-friendly R290 refrigerant. This design ensures steady temperature distribution while minimising energy use. The integrated Dixell digital controller gives precise readings and quick adjustments — ideal for chefs who demand accuracy and consistency in busy UK catering environments.
Why Is the Stainless-Steel and ABS Construction Ideal for Commercial Kitchens?
The 304 stainless-steel exterior protects against corrosion and heavy use, while the white ABS interior is smooth, non-porous, and easy to sanitise. Together, they create a freezer that meets the hygiene and durability standards expected in the British hospitality sector.
Which Design Features Improve Everyday Usability?
Both the LS40 and LS60 feature a reversible door with an integrated full-height handle for flexibility and comfort. Five fixed shelves maximise usable space, while a replaceable door gasket maintains an airtight seal over years of operation. Rear rollers and front stabilising feet make movement and installation simple, ensuring smooth integration into any professional kitchen layout.
How Do the LS40 and LS60 Models Compare in Capacity and Application?
-
Blizzard LS40 Upright Freezer – 326 L capacity, 1850 × 595 × 640 mm. Compact and efficient; perfect for cafés, prep zones, and smaller restaurant operations where space is limited.

Blizzard LS60 Upright Freezer – 550 L capacity, 1850 × 775 × 750 mm. Larger footprint and volume make it ideal for hotels, canteens, and high-volume commercial kitchens needing expanded frozen storage.
How Does the Temperature Control System Protect Food Quality?
The Dixell digital controller offers fine-tuned management of internal temperatures, helping preserve food texture and nutritional value. Combined with static cooling, it ensures consistent air distribution — vital for maintaining frozen goods in line with UK food hygiene regulations.
What Makes the LS Series Easy to Install and Maintain?
Both units are plug-and-play ready via a standard 13 amp UK plug, requiring no specialist installation. Rear rollers simplify cleaning access, while the replaceable gasket and simple manual defrosting make upkeep straightforward and cost-effective for operators.
Why Is R290 Refrigerant a Smart Choice for UK Businesses?
