Williams Quartz Star HQS1SWHC - 1 Door White Colorbond Upright Storage Fridge 740mm 500L

With a solid insulated door instead of glass, the Williams Quartz Star HQS1SWHC is the storage fridge of the single door Quartz Star family: built in Australia for back-of-house use in cafes, restaurants and takeaways where you want 500 litres of cold storage that shrugs off a hot kitchen. Williams rates this solid door model for room temperatures up to 43°C, higher than the 40°C rating of the glass door versions. It holds +1°C to +4°C, plugs into a 10 amp power point and has its refrigeration system in a removable cassette at the base. The HQS1GWHC is the glass door display version, and the HQS1SSHC is the same solid door fridge in stainless steel.

Common questions:

What is the difference between the solid door and glass door Quartz Star?
The solid door keeps more cold in, so Williams rates this model for 43°C rooms against 40°C for the glass door version. The glass door models add triple glazing and LED lighting for display.

Does it need a drain?
No. The waste heat recovery vaporiser evaporates the defrost water. It only needs a 10 amp power point. We supply the equipment only.

Can I get a lock or a pass-through door?
Yes. Cylindrical locks and pass-through doors (solid or glass to the rear) are options at the time of order. Ask us for details.
