Undoubtedly, both commercial and residential refrigeration serves the purpose of cooling and freezing, but difference lies in the features and needs of customer (whether they want fridge for home or business purpose).

Let’s take a look on their key differences:

Unlike to residential fridges, which have low compressors, commercial fridges are outfitted with strong compressors. This is because food stored in those cases is in large quantity, whereas food stored in home fridges is in small quantity.

Commercial fridges have the ability to resist bacteria because they are manufactured keeping in mind the business purpose. On the other hand, home fridge-freezers may or may not meet the health code terms because it is not used for business purpose.

Home fridges are constrained in size and commercial fridges are ones, which are available in all dimensions because food stored in these cases is used selling purpose, which ought to be in large quantity.

Likewise all above features, temperature of both freezers also does vary. Small amount of the freezer air is required for home application gear, which is a big no-no in commercial freezers.

Commercial freezers have defrosting feature as well, which is not likely there in household refrigerators freezers because less frequent defrosting is required in it.
