As any good business owner knows, efficient and effective refrigeration is integral to running a successful venue. A broken fridge door can be a costly problem for businesses, because the seal on the door is what keeps cool air in.

This costs your business in energy bills, causes your cooling systems to wear out quicker, and worse yet, it may even result in food spoilage.
