True Refrigeration T-35-HC Refrigerator Reach-in Two-section

Two-door refrigerated storage in a space-conscious footprint.

If your kitchen needs organized cold storage without moving to a wider reach-in, the True T-35 provides two solid doors and six adjustable shelves in a cabinet that measures 39 1/2 inches wide. It is designed to maintain cabinet temperatures from 33°F to 38°F, while its bottom-mounted condensing unit keeps the condenser accessible for routine care. IceMachinesPlus offers this model with a 30-Day Price Match Guarantee, adding some reassurance to a major equipment purchase.

Before ordering the True T-35, make sure it fits the delivery route, final location, electrical supply, and workflow. Review the official True T-35-HC specification sheet with the installer before approving the site.

The True T-35 checks below turn the published specifications into practical installation requirements.

Once the True T-35 is installed and level, establish a safe operating baseline before placing inventory inside:

• Run the refrigerator empty for 24 hours and confirm proper operation before loading food.
• Use the exterior display to monitor cabinet air, but verify actual food temperatures with a calibrated food thermometer. The FDA Food Code sets 41°F or below for most cold-held time/temperature control for safety food. Follow the food code adopted by your jurisdiction.
• Keep products from pressing against the side and rear walls, and maintain at least 4 inches of open space beneath the evaporator housing so refrigerated air can circulate.
• Close both doors completely, and check that the removable magnetic gaskets remain clean, undamaged, and fully sealed.
• Avoid packing the shelves so tightly that containers interrupt airflow. Stable product temperature depends on air reaching the entire load.

The True T-35’s two-door layout helps staff organize frequently accessed ingredients, backup inventory, prep categories, and station-specific supplies. The self-closing doors help return the cabinet to a closed position, but staff should still confirm that containers, labels, and packaging aren’t obstructing the seal. Door locks are standard when inventory control matters after operating hours.

This model is best suited to operations that can use its shelf arrangement and 39 1/2-inch width without crowding the interior. If the available space or storage demand points to another cabinet size, compare True two-section solid-door refrigerators or the broader range of commercial reach-in refrigerators before committing to the True T-35.

Routine care is part of the purchase decision. True recommends checking the condenser for dust and debris monthly and cleaning it whenever buildup is present. Wash the gaskets with warm, soapy water, inspect the drain line quarterly, and clear any debris. Follow the current True T-Series installation manual for the complete maintenance procedure. The True T-35 uses R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant, so refrigeration-system diagnosis and repair belong with a licensed service provider using approved components.

A few operating questions about this refrigerator deserve direct answers.

Is 35°F okay for the True T-35?

Yes. This refrigerator is designed to maintain cabinet temperatures from 33°F to 38°F, so 35°F is within its specified range. Confirm actual food temperature with a calibrated thermometer because the display measures cabinet air, not every product.

How much clearance does the True T-35 need?

It requires 0 inches above, 0 inches at the sides, and 1 inch behind the cabinet. Keep ventilation openings clear, and follow the current manual and serial-label requirements for the installed unit.

How should food be loaded in the True T-35?

Keep food away from the side and rear walls and at least 4 inches below the evaporator housing. Don’t overload the shelves or block the refrigerated-air path through the cabinet.

How often should the True T-35 condenser be checked?

Inspect the condenser monthly and clean it whenever dust or debris is present. Some installations may require more frequent checks than the standard maintenance schedule.

Why is my True refrigerator not getting cold?

First verify power, closed doors, intact gaskets, unobstructed internal airflow, the required rear clearance, and a clean condenser. If the refrigerator still doesn’t recover, stop adjusting the control and contact a licensed refrigeration technician.
