If you are planning to install a U.S. Cooler walk-in cooler or freezer, you need to know the R-factor of the insulation you will use. The R-factor is a measure of how well the insulation resists heat transfer. The higher the R-factor, the better the insulation.

Why is the R-factor important? Because it affects the energy efficiency and performance of your walk-in cooler or freezer. A higher R-factor means less heat loss or gain, which means lower operating costs and better temperature control. A lower R-factor means more heat loss or gain, which means higher operating costs and worse temperature control.

How do you determine the R-factor you need?

There are several factors to consider, such as:

  • The size and shape of your walk-in cooler or freezer
  • The location and climate of your facility
  • The type and frequency of usage of your walk-in cooler or freezer
  • The temperature difference between the inside and outside of your walk-in cooler or freezer
  • The local codes and regulations for insulation
