Frequently Asked Questions
What is ambient temperature storage?
Ambient temperature storage refers to a controlled environment that maintains products at conditions close to typical room temperature, protected from extreme temperature swings without active refrigeration or freezing.
Who needs ambient temperature storage units?
Businesses that store products sensitive to heat, humidity, or temperature swings, but that do not require refrigeration, are well-suited for ambient temperature storage. Common users include pharmaceutical companies storing raw materials or non-refrigerated medications, food distributors managing dry or shelf-stable inventory, and event operators or caterers managing non-perishable supplies in outdoor settings.
How is ambient temperature storage different from refrigerated storage?
Ambient temperature storage maintains a moderate, stable environment at or near typical room temperature, without active cooling below that threshold. Refrigerated storage, by contrast, uses a mechanical refrigeration system to actively lower internal temperatures, typically to 35°F (2°C) or below for coolers, or well below freezing for walk in freezers. Choosing the wrong storage type for your product can cause spoilage, reduced efficacy, or regulatory non-compliance, so it is important to match the unit to your product’s specific storage requirements.
Not sure what’s best for you? Our team can help you identify the right solution whether you need ambient, refrigerated, or frozen storage.
What are the minimum and maximum ambient temperatures Polar Leasing ambient temperature units can maintain?
The A820 ambient temperature walk-in unit maintains internal conditions between a minimum of 65°F (18°C) and a maximum of 80°F (27°C). That 65°F–80°F range ensures products are protected from conditions cold enough to cause damage such as crystallization or integrity loss, while also staying within the 30°C (86°F) upper boundary referenced by USP for ambient pharmaceutical storage. The unit’s seamless fiberglass construction resists heat absorption from the sun and provides a stable thermal barrier against external temperature fluctuations, even in outdoor environments.
How quickly can we get an ambient temperature storage unit on-site?
Our A820 ambient temperature units arrive fully assembled and pre-wired, ready to operate with a simple electrical connection. Delivery timelines vary by location and availability, but our national rental fleet and logistics network are designed to get units on-site as quickly as possible, whether you need a unit for a planned event, seasonal overflow, or an emergency situation.
