Thermaster 1105L Supermarket Island Freezer With Glass Sliding Lids ZCD-L250G

The Thermaster ZCD-L250G is a 2500 mm supermarket island freezer with glass sliding lids, holding 1105 L gross and 796 L net at -22 to -18 °C on R290. Maximum ambient 25 °C at 60% relative humidity — a low ceiling, and the first thing to check about your room.

Why operators choose the ZCD-L250G

• Maximum ambient 25 °C at 60% RH — read this before anything else. A supermarket aisle in an Australian summer will exceed 25 °C unless the room is air-conditioned, and above the ceiling the cabinet will run hard and may not hold -18 °C. Its sibling the ZCD-L210G carries the same limit, so it is a property of the range rather than a quirk of this size
• -22 to -18 °C on R290 — a natural refrigerant with very low global warming potential
• Static cooling with automatic defrost, and the source notes that manual-defrost versions are available on request — that is a different build to order, not a setting on this one
• Low-E tempered glass sliding lids — low-emissivity glass reflects radiant heat back out, which on a freezer lid is what keeps the surface clear and the load down
• 70 mm insulation — the figure that decides how hard it works to hold -18 °C
• 1105 L gross, 796 L net across 3 doors and 5 shelves. Net is the figure to plan stock against — 72% of gross, the rest being insulation and airflow
• Collision stopper — a bumper for trolleys, which in a supermarket aisle is the difference between a scuff and a repair
• Digital thermostat with temperature display, LED lighting, adjustable feet and castors
• Storage mesh or full baskets — the source says "or", so we cannot tell you which is supplied with this unit. Confirm it with us if the baskets matter
• 240 V, 960 W on a 10 amp supply — a standard outlet for a 2.5 metre freezer, which is worth noting
• 2 years parts and labour, plus a further 2 years parts only — but the second period is conditional on registering the product within 14 days of invoice. Register it or you have the 2-year term, not the 4-year one

Specifications

Venue suitability

An island freezer suits supermarkets, grocers and convenience retail selling frozen product from an aisle rather than a wall. The glass lids make it a display as well as storage — but the 25 °C ambient ceiling means it belongs in a climate-controlled room, not a warm shop.

Installation & delivery

Plugs into a standard 240 V outlet at 960 W on 10 amp — no electrical work, which for a 2.5 metre freezer is worth knowing. Dimensions are recorded width x depth x height: 2500 x 850 x 870 mm, and it weighs 153 kg. It has adjustable feet and castors. The siting requirement is the real constraint: maximum ambient 25 °C at 60% relative humidity. Check the room before you check the cabinet — if the aisle gets warmer than that in summer, tell us before you order.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What does the 25 degree ambient limit mean for me?

It means this freezer is specified for a climate-controlled room, not a warm shop. Above 25 C or 60% relative humidity it will run harder and may not hold -18 C. An Australian supermarket aisle in February will exceed that without air conditioning. Worth knowing that its sibling the ZCD-L210G carries the same ceiling, so this is how the range is built rather than a limitation of this size.

Q: How much can I actually fit in it?

796 litres net from 1105 gross, across 3 doors and 5 shelves. Plan against the net figure - the difference is insulation and the airflow the cabinet needs. Net is about 72% of gross here.

Q: What baskets does it come with?

We cannot say. The source describes it as equipped with storage mesh or full baskets, and "or" is what it says - so we do not know which this unit ships with. Ask us and we will confirm with the supplier before you order, because it changes how you merchandise it.

Q: Does it defrost itself?

This build is static cooling with automatic defrost. The source also notes that manual-defrost models are available on request, which is a different unit to order rather than a setting on this one - and manual defrost is sometimes preferred for ice cream, so say so at order time if that is your product.

Q: What warranty does it come with?

Two years parts and labour, and then a further two years parts only - but the second period only exists if you register the product within 14 days of the invoice. We state the condition every time because without it the cover is two years, not four. See our warranty information page for the full terms.
