Alto-Shaam QC3-3 Under Counter Blast Chiller

The Alto‑Shaam QC3‑3 Under Counter Blast Chiller is a powerful, compact refrigeration solution engineered to rapidly and safely cool or freeze food in commercial kitchens, cafes, and catering environments. Designed with professional food safety and productivity in mind, this QuickChiller™ unit removes heat quickly using a combination of low temperatures and high‑velocity airflow, greatly reducing the time food spends in the critical “Danger Zone” between 135°F and 40°F (57°C – 4°C).

Its intuitive 7″ touchscreen interface puts precise temperature control at your fingertips with multiple automated programs tailored for food density and type, including quick freeze, soft chill, hard chill and holding modes. This allows operators to streamline prep and production cycles by chilling batches ahead of service, reducing labor hours while maintaining superior food quality and safety.

Compact yet versatile, the QC3‑3 fits easily under counters or on worktops, making it ideal for kitchens with limited space but high standards for performance and food safety compliance.
