Top or Bottom Mounted Compressors

[TexasRookie]

We are about to buy two additional reach in fridges at our location. Right now our other two reach in coolers are top mounted and they work fine.

Does anyone have a reason why we should buy one over the other? Thanks!

I have both and my preference is the one with a bottom mount compressor. When it comes time to clean the unit (weekly is my schedule) I don’t have to drag out a step stool and hold up the vacuum. It is also easier to have serviced if necessary.

In addition to the above. it is usually cooler near the floor and that is better for the compressor’s operation .
