Polar King International, Inc. walk-in coolers and freezers approval for use in Miami-Dade County high-velocity hurricane zones extended through 2027

Feb 28, 2022

Polar King International, Inc., announces today that, by meeting stringent requirements and passing extensive impact testing, the company’s line of walk-in coolers and walk-in freezers earned Miami-Dade County product control approved certification through June 2027. This is an extension of the approval Miami-Dade County initially issued for Polar King units in 2017.

By satisfying the standards for compliance with the Florida Building Code and Miami-Dade County, Polar King coolers and freezers are accepted for use in high-velocity hurricane zones. Compliance with the Miami-Dade County building code further demonstrates the quality of the seamless construction methods used to manufacture Polar King walk-in units.

All Polar King walk-in coolers and walk-in freezers are manufactured with an unfaced, closed cell polyisocyanurate foam encased in fiberglass, both inside and out. This construction method and insulation material provides superior R-Values and lower maintenance costs. The seamless exterior also ensures cost-effective operation, even in the most intense heat. Tested above 175°F, Polar King's fiberglass design is an ideal choice for warm weather climates such as Florida.
