Craft Group

In the world of professional refrigeration, the difference between "standard" and "superior" lies in the engineering. Craft Group’s Walk-in Cooler Condensing Unit series, branded under the Thermocraft name, represents the pinnacle of technical performance. Designed for high-ambient environments where others fail, our Walk-in Cooler Condensing Unit hardware features corrosion-resistant components and vibration-dampening technology to extend the life of the system. We cater to a wider audience by offering versatile configurations that fit into a variety of architectural layouts, from compact indoor setups to rugged rooftop installations. Every Walk-in Cooler Condensing Unit undergoes a rigorous factory-testing process to ensure it meets our strict standards for decibel levels and BTU output. When you choose Craft Group , you are choosing a partner that understands the mechanical nuances of industrial-grade cooling.

Why Custom Thermal Refrigeration Matters for Modern Businesses You know that feeling when something just doesn’t fit right? That’s what happens with off-the-shelf coolers. They work okay for basic stuff, but they’re not built for what your business actually needs. Commercial Thermal Refrigeration Solutions are different. They’re designed specifically around your load, temperature needs, and the space you’re working with, not some one-size-fits-all approach. The payoff shows up pretty quickly. Custom setups hold food at the exact temperatures you need, for longer. They run quieter when customers are around. Your power bill shrinks because the system does just what it needs to do, nothing more.  For restaurant kitchens, retail display cases, and equipment makers, that precision really counts. Your products stay consistent. Equipment doesn’t wear out as fast. You get less downtime. Key Design Factors in Custom Refrigeration Systems Matching Capacity, Temperature Range, and Applicatio...

Cooling systems eat up power. Air-cooled condensing units run constantly in commercial buildings, and when they’re inefficient, your electric bill shows it. Low-GWP refrigerants fix part of that problem. They work the same as older refrigerants but cause less environmental damage. That translates to lower operating costs and sometimes rebates or tax breaks. How Air-Cooled Condensing Units Work Refrigerant picks up heat inside your building. It gets compressed, moves outside, and releases that heat through metal coils. Fans blow air across the coils. The refrigerant cools down and cycles back inside. Older refrigerants like R-22 stuck around in the atmosphere, damaging the ozone layer. Newer options like R-290 or R-513A do the same cooling job without trashing the environment. The cooling capacity stays the same. The environmental damage drops. Why Switch to Low-GWP Refrigerants Low-GWP refrigerants break down faster in the atmosphere. They don’t accumulate and trap heat like the old o...

Efficiency is the cornerstone of modern industrial cooling, and the Water Cooled Condensing Unit stands at the forefront of energy-saving technology. Craft Group explains the critical role these units play in reducing the carbon footprint and operational costs of large-scale HVAC and refrigeration systems. Unlike air-cooled systems that can struggle during heatwaves, a Water Cooled Condensing Unit provides consistent, high-output cooling capacity by leveraging a constant water source. This results in a smaller physical footprint and significantly quieter operation, making them the ideal choice for urban environments, high-rise buildings, or indoor installations where noise and space are restricted.

Your walk-in cooler condensing unit needs attention throughout the year, but the care changes depending on the season. Spring has its own issues. Summer brings heat stress. Fall and winter throw different curveballs your way. Skip this maintenance, and you're looking at breakdowns when you can least afford them. The upside? Regular upkeep keeps everything running smoothly without drama. Spring: Getting Ready After Winter Winter does a number on equipment. Dust settles everywhere. Moisture creeps in. When spring rolls around, your first move should be cleaning those coils on your unit. Dirt clogs up airflow and makes the system strain harder than it needs to. Use a soft brush or grab some compressed air to get them clean. While you're at it, oil the fan motors and bearings. These parts are spinning all the time, so they need lubrication to keep from seizing up. Don't skip checking your refrigerant levels either. If they're low, your cooling drops and energy costs spike....
