Who needs a specialist freezer room?
- 1
Stock that needs sub-zero cold
Meat, poultry, fish and ice cream spoil if the temperature rises even briefly above the required level. A freezer room is built to hold that level continuously, not simply to cool.
- 2
One room, two temperature zones
Large restaurants and hotels usually need a chiller section and a freezer section side by side. We build both wings with separate insulation, independent refrigeration units and an insulated inner door, so neither zone affects the other's temperature.
- 3
Expanding an existing facility
If your current cold room no longer holds all your stock, or you need to add a freezer section beside it, we survey the site and propose the most practical way to expand with as little disruption to your operation as possible.
Who it's for
Opening a restaurant that needs a freezer room
We survey your kitchen and build the freezer room with frost-rated insulation panels, an insulated floor and a tight-sealing door.

What the installation covers
- Freezer-rated insulation panels
- Insulated floor vapour barrier
- Heated frame tight-sealing door
- Evaporator with electric defrost
- Condensing unit temperature controller
How we work
How we work
- 1
Site survey
We visit the site, learn the stock type and required temperature, measure the available space, and decide the right insulation thickness and refrigeration system from what we find.
- 2
Design and supply
We draw the room layout including pipe and cable routes, then have the panels, doors and equipment ready before installation begins.
- 3
Installation and connection
We fit the panels, insulated floor and door, then run and insulate the copper pipes, vacuum the line and pressure-test it before starting the system. Mueller copper in runs of up to 30 metres without welded joints where the layout calls for it.
- 4
Start-up and handover
We run the system and watch the room reach its target temperature, confirm the defrost cycle works and the door seals properly, then explain the controls to the person responsible for the facility.
Specialist install or an unconsidered one?

What sets this district apart
Al Salamah is a mixed residential and commercial district with food shops, distribution centres and medium-sized warehouses among residential blocks. The restaurants and small hotels here need freezer rooms for daily stock, and most commercial spaces have enough outdoor area to fit the condenser unit. Drainage and electrical supply need careful planning because floor levels vary between older and newer buildings.
Al Salamah lies in west Jeddah, a mixed residential and commercial zone with food shops and small warehouses alongside apartment blocks.
Most freezer rooms here are installed in single-storey sorting and storage shops, with outdoor condensers on rear or side walls.
The AC setup in Al Salamah
- 1
Single-zone freezer for the shop
Most food shops here use a single room to store meat, poultry and fish at one temperature.
- 2
Dual-zone room for mixed storage
Larger storage facilities may need a room with two separate zones, one for freezing and one for regular chilling.
- 3
Outdoor condenser on rear wall
Most installations here place the condenser on the rear or side wall away from the main entrance.

FAQ
Questions about Cold & freezer room installation
Why does a freezer room need an insulated floor when a chiller often does not?
At sub-zero temperatures the moisture held in a concrete slab freezes and expands, cracking tiles and lifting bases over time. A chiller room operates above freezing, so ice crystals do not form in the slab. A freezer room therefore requires insulated panels under the floor together with a vapour barrier that blocks rising ground heat and protects the structure over the long term.
What is the difference between electric defrost and other types?
Electric defrost uses heating elements fixed inside the evaporator coil; they warm the coil directly and melt frost build-up. Hot-gas defrost instead redirects warm refrigerant from the compressor back through the same coil. The choice between the two depends on room size, the required number of cycles and the type of goods stored; the site survey determines which method suits each installation.
Can two zones at different temperatures share the same footprint?
Yes. A partition of insulated panels separates the space, with each side using a panel thickness matched to its required temperature differential. Each zone has its own refrigeration unit and a door with a heated frame to prevent condensation. This arrangement is widely used in meat and fish facilities that need a chiller zone for short-term stock and a freezer zone for longer storage. The final design depends on the available floor area and the heat load of each section.
Does the position of the condensing unit affect how the freezer room performs?
Position has a direct effect. The condensing unit needs clean air and adequate flow to reject heat; if it is placed in a confined space or near heat sources the condensing pressure rises and the compressor works harder. In Jeddah, outdoor air also carries salt and dust that accumulate on the condenser coil over time. The site survey identifies the best location and the copper-pipe route, keeping each Mueller copper pipe run within thirty metres without welded joints.

Our shops are small, can a freezer room fit in limited space?
Yes, we design the room to fit your available space, whether it is a shop corner or a separate store, without sacrificing performance.
Our back alley is narrow, how do you get the condenser and piping in?
We visit first to assess access, and plan the piping route from the shop to the nearest outdoor space for the condenser before ordering materials.
Heat and humidity are very high here in summer, will the room handle it?
Yes, the thick insulation and powerful outdoor condenser are designed for Jeddah's coastal heat and humidity, and we select a cooling unit with capacity for your conditions.
Our floor is old and damp, what should we do before installation?
Ensure water drains away from the room location, and tell us about the floor condition at first visit, as we may need extra preparation to protect the foundation from frost heave.
