Question. What are the differences between the AS series under counter coolers and the CWP series?
Answer. Both do the same thing – cool the product and have water recirculation up into the font(s).
The AS series uses older technology, forming an ice block to chill the beer, whereas the CWP models use the the same flash chiller technology found in the Lindr portable units. They are perfect for home bar and commercial applications; they are quiet and very economical to run.
The main advantage of the CWP series is that it only takes 20 minutes for the beer/wine to chill to the right temperature and there is no ice block to form/thaw. So we would recommend the CWP for say mobile bars and vehicles where you need the system up and running quickly and you don’t have time for the ice block to thaw before heading home! The CWP models are great for tap bars, bars and commercial applications.
The CWP-100 would be great in a home bar too; with it’s small foot print, near silent operation and ability to run three lines it would be a great option.
