FORECOURTS AND CONVENIENCE STORES
solutions for retail. Retail entrepreneurs invest considerable effort into their establishments, with the majority of sites being original start- ups and only a quarter being family-inherited businesses. The need to keep investment costs under control whilst improving the shopping experience can be a significant challenge. In some locations, noise can be an important planning issue, so low-noise condensing units are critical. However, the one element that is common across all environments and has come to the forefront is efficiency and low GWP. If a site operator finds that power bills are rising exponentially, it is important that they mitigate their running costs as quickly as possible and at the same time future-proof themselves against environmental legislation. Retail refrigeration requires specialist sector knowledge, and it is essential that consultants and contractors understand the full consequences of the equipment they suggest for the independent site operator. At Hubbard Products, we offer a wide range of solutions that address the requirements of the smallest to the largest operators, answering real- world needs such as linking refrigeration with comfort cooling and heating. We manufacture
a range of low GWP packs with a choice of CO2 and other refrigerants to address F-Gas phase-
down requirements.
Often, space can be at a premium, so our smaller footprint condensing units for medium and low temperature refrigeration applications are ideal for fluctuating loads and high-energy efficiency requirements such as forecourt and convenience stores. Their compact
footprint with reduced sound emissions allows installation in virtually any available space. We also offer DC inverter scroll compressors with economiser function for high energy-efficiency and reliable performance. The units’ low sound level includes a ‘night mode’ operation. For the smallest retail locations, we offer packs specifically for low capacity refrigeration applications in small food stores, including bottle coolers and display cabinets. We can achieve the same reduced running costs as larger systems, even though space is limited. Low operating sound levels and a plug and play system also reduces installation time and cost.
It is important to consider the full range of influencing factors when specifying
refrigeration for the forecourt and convenience
sector. This includes the socio-cultural environment, bein g affected by a new generation of consumer attitudes, and environmental sustainability – ensuring equipment is as energy-efficient as possible, and not wasting perishables which add to the amount of CO2 being created in landfills – as well as costing capital. Plus, by buying locally, less carbon is created.
So, the message is to refrigerate effectively; as a specifier or an installer it is critical for long-term sustainability as a business, an d also for the environment, to look long and hard at the solution you are considering.
Hubbard Products is part of the Daikin Group of companies and offers a range of advice and support services to specifiers, consultants and engineers to help them benefit from the latest developments and improvements in global retail attitudes and the thought processes around energy efficiency, environmental responsibility and commercial value for mon ey. Making the right decision need not be difficult – it just has to be justifiable and made from a position of knowledge and practical experience. Hubbard Products can offer even-handed decision-making support.

Maximum performance with a small footprint
The adiabatic drycooler JAEGGI ADC High Density: extremely compact, very powerful, with an adiabatic pre-cooling unit attached over the entire height of the cube – with no need for wa- ter treatment. All mounted parts including the powerful fans can be invisible from the outside. The smart Hybri- matic control unit continual- ly decides whether applying water or changing the speed represents the more effi cient mode of operation – thus saving money throughout the serving life.
