MIAMI—Amerikooler, a U.S. based leader in commercial refrigeration solutions, announces the launch of the AK Series 3 Quick Ship Walk-In, setting a new industry benchmark for performance, efficiency, and rapid delivery. Designed for businesses that demand rapid solutions without sacrificing performance, this walk-in is engineered to keep operations running smoothly by delivering quotes in just 24 hours and offering the fastest lead times in the industry with minimal downtime and seamless installation.
Built with 4-inch-thick AK-XPS insulation, the AK Series 3 achieves R-29 for coolers and R-32 for freezers, providing superior energy efficiency and exceptional temperature retention that translates into reduced operating cost. The interior and exterior panels are constructed from Acrylume, corrosion-resistant, stucco-embossed Galvalume, guaranteeing long-lasting durability and robust protection against rust and corrosion even in the most demanding environments.
For safety and sanitation, the standard foot-traffic-rated smooth stainless steel floor finish used on Quick Ship models is designed to withstand up to 600 pounds per square foot of uniformly distributed load—ideal for heavy foot traffic while maintaining clean and sanitary conditions. In applications where a floor is not required, floorless walk-ins are supplied with NSF-approved vinyl screed, ensuring compliance with food safety standards. Depending on the application and manufacturer recommendations, floors can be upgraded to Ultimate Reinforced, rated to handle up to 2,700 pounds per square foot of uniformly distributed load.
Interior Safety Lock Releaser
The AK Series 3 offers flexible access options with a choice of single 30-inch or 36-inch wide, 76-inch-high flush-mounted doors, centered on any side to suit a wide range of layouts and operational needs. Each unit features two Performer lift-off adjustable super cam-rise spring assisted hinges for effortless door operation and reliable, long-lasting performance, while the Safeguard deadbolt keyed handle latch with padlock capability enhances security for stored goods. An interior safety lock releaser handle ensures occupant safety by allowing exit from inside at any time.
To maintain energy efficiency and temperature control, the spring-actuated door closer keeps the door securely shut, and a digital LED thermometer with an on/off pilot light switch allows for easy, accurate temperature monitoring and control. The vapor-proof LED light fixture, centered on the interior door jamb, delivers bright, energy-efficient illumination for a safe working environment. For freezer applications, doors are equipped with a pre-wired pressure relief vent and heated relief vent to prevent pressure build-up and ensure safe, reliable operation.
The AK Series 3 is available with both self-contained and remote refrigeration systems, supporting indoor and outdoor installations to meet diverse site requirements. With nine standardized size options and four standard height configurations, with or without floor, selection is simplified and compatibility with most spaces is assured.
Fifteen-Year Panel Warranty
Amerikooler stands behind the AK Series 3 with industry-leading warranties, including a 50-year DuPont thermal warranty, 15-year panel warranty, five-year warranty on doors, floors, and compressors, and one-year limited panel labor and original parts warranties, providing long-term protection and peace of mind. Every unit is backed by comprehensive code compliance certifications, including UL, NSF, ASTM International, the US Environmental Protection Agency, the US Department of Energy, and the City of Houston Public Works and Engineering.
Whether for indoor or outdoor use, the AK Series 3 is available in standardized sizes with a range of height options, simplifying installation and ensuring compatibility with nearly any space. Floorless cooler models come with NSF vinyl screed to maintain food safety standards, while outdoor units include rain roof membranes, exterior floor angles, and door hoods for added weather protection.
The AK Series 3 Quick-Ship Walk-In reflects Amerikooler’s commitment to providing practical, dependable cold storage solutions that address the evolving needs of today’s commercial environments. With a focus on efficiency, robust construction, and flexible installation options, the AK Series 3 is designed to support operational continuity and long-term value.
