Truly Unique Refrigeration
For over 65 years, True has been an industry leader in commercial refrigeration and continues to exceed customer's expectations. The high standards in customer service, quality materials, design, availability and performance can simply not be duplicated. All true products are National Sanitation Foundation or NSF certified.
This type of certification can only be obtained when the products pass various tests including durability and performance. True's exceptional technological and design knowledge has helped them improve on many standards in the industry, and are the forefront of new ideas which will revolutionize the industry. One example of how True is in the forefront of new technology is its devotion to energy efficiency. Energy consumption is one of the most important issues facing the world today. As a society as a whole we are becoming less energy efficient each day.
Some things such as hybrid cars and solar panels are designed to alleviate this problem however, none have become mainstream as of yet. True has taken the desire to become more energy efficient to the next level. True units can provide customers with lower utility bills and at the same time increase food preservation and safety. True is at the forefront of making these units more energy efficient to customers. True is achieving this goal by developing refrigerators with Ecomate foam. Ecomate foam is an advanced CFC-free foam insulator. “This product contains no ozone depletion potential, no global warming potential, as well and volatile organic compound exempt polyurethane foam that helps protect the environment while providing excellent insulation and safety properties to products for a variety of industries.”
True Refrigeration has reduced their energy immensely over the last 10 years. “True has reduced water usage by 50% per square foot. They have also shown a 99.97% reduction in the Toxic Release Inventory TRI. True has also reduced the release of CO2 by 137,000 metric turns the equivalency of removing 26,863 cars off the road. True also recycle 985 of their scrap metal”
In addition to how True is an energy efficient company, its commitment has named it an energy star partner. Even though True is environmentally friendly to consumers, as well as an environmentally friendly business, the units feature some of the coldest temperatures on the market. The average refrigerator maintains temperature between 33-38 degrees. The freezers that True make can range between 0 to even -10 degrees. Colder temperatures help preserve the products and maintain their freshness.
True That
True is a company that offers great quality and durability. Other competitors such as Beverage Air and Leader can simply not compete. In a standard two door reach in refrigerator True uses a 40-pass condenser. Other such as the company's aforementioned use the standard 25-30 pass condensers. “True was voted best in class for both their upright/ reach-in refrigerator and prep tables.

Finally every single model that is made and designed by True goes through a thorough inspection by run testing. “Every refrigerator is run tested for 4-6 hours and each freezer is tested for at least 16 hours to ensure ideal reliability and elite performance.”
Another feature that separates True from its competitors is their commitment to outstanding after sale report. Although some retailers such as Elite Restaurant Equipment do offer five year warranty on the compressors of their refrigerators, True also offers such a great warranty. True not only offers a five year warranty on the compressors of the units but also offers a three year warranty on parts and labor for the entire unit.
True also has a tremendous inventory of the various parts that could break and has quick shipping. In addition to a tremendous warranty on the compressor, condensing unit, and parts and labor True also offers excellent customer service. When you call they are understanding of issues and are knowledgeable about all their products. “Innovations like the Reversing Condenser Fan Motor which reverses during defrost off cycles to help keep condenser coil free from dirt dust and debris.”5 Technology like this not only helps the unit's performance providing colder temperatures, increased energy efficiency, but also higher profits for your business.
