Reach In Shortage?

[GenesisRefrig]

I’ve been trying to find a 3 door reach-in freezer with remote refrigeration, and the quickest I can get one is 15 weeks (from Zero Zone). Are you guys seeing the same thing? Does anyone have a source that might be faster? I’m absolutely open to refurbished units as well.

As a side note, it’s been almost impossible to find walk-in coils from my suppliers. Does any manufacturer other than Heatcraft have a decent inventory?

This is so freaking ridiculous! I can’t even promise my customers anything these days because of supply problems.

Yup. Same here.

Some manufacturers are 20+ weeks out.

Depending on what you are looking for, Supermarket Parts Warehouse has a used case division. There's a place in NC that does some refurb.

I get emails for a used supermarket equipment supplier on occasion. If I can find it I'll post the web address.

Word is there was a plant in Texas that burnt that made some chemical they use in the foam insulation they use in the cases.

I had heard it was the Texas freeze that shut down refineries. Urethane foam components are a petro product. Ive got several walk in boxes that are delayed by weeks. They are playing catch up and are way behind.
