WALK-IN INSTALLATION
Site Selection Base Preparation & Leveling the Floor
WALK-IN COOLER OR FREEZER WITH A FLOOR
One of the most important considerations in the erection of a walk-in cooler or freezer is the building
floor or the surface upon which the walk-in will rest. As with any structure, a firm and level foundation is
essential to achieve a perfect end result. If the surface is not perfectly level and smooth, appropriate steps
must be taken to
provide the proper
base. The positive
action of self-closing
doors, proper door
gasket
seal
and
condensate removal
all depend directly
upon the level and
plumb installation of
all panels.
If the walk-in is to be installed next to an existing building wall(s), make
sure that a MINIMUM OF 1" REMAINS BETWEEN THE WALK-IN
AND THE BUILDING WALL(S) to allow for irregularities of the building
wall(s) and to permit a free flow of air between the two surfaces.
In some cases, the surface upon which the walk-in is to be installed
was especially prepared for installation and it is perfectly level and
smooth. The walk-in floor, in this case, may be installed without
further preparation. Before beginning, however, an appropriate vapor
barrier should be placed over the surface that the walk-in will occupy.
Asphalt felt paper (50#) or a 6 mil polyethylene film, are suggested
materials. These are provided by the installing contractor.
