Abstract
A refrigerated facility is any building or section of a building that achieves controlled storage conditions using refrigeration. Two basic storage facilities are: Coolers that protect commodities at temperatures usually above 32°F, and Low-temperature rooms (freezers) operating under 32°F to prevent spoilage or to maintain or extend product life. It should be noted that due to ongoing research, the trend is toward lower temperatures for frozen foods. Refer to Chapter 10 of this volume for further information.
