It is built from pre-made 4-inch XPS insulated panels, rated R-29, that are assembled on site, and it comes with a floor.

Delivery and setup
- Free shipping on this item. See our shipping policy for delivery details.
- Inspect every crate and panel for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt.
- Dade lists a 1,410 lb. shipping weight. Plan a forklift or enough people to unload, and a clear, level area to assemble the panels on site.
- Have a 208/230V, 60 Hz, single-phase circuit ready for the refrigeration system. The Dade sheet does not list amps, so size the circuit from the data plate with your electrician.
- The self-contained system comes with the box; leave room around it for air flow and service as the installer advises.
Questions buyers ask
What power does it need?

Will it fit in my space?
The nominal size is 8 ft wide, 8 ft deep and 7.7 ft high. The box comes as modular panels assembled on site, so measure the floor area and ceiling height, not the doorway.
How well is it insulated?
The panels have 4 inches of XPS insulation, R-29 for coolers. Dade certifies panels and doors for walk-in cooler use under DOE regulations.
How much weight can the floor hold?
The included floor is engineered for a 700 lb. per sq. ft. stationary load with even distribution. Its surface is .080 textured aluminum.
