Understanding the Different Types of Door Gaskets Used for Beverage-Air Models

Beverage-Air is an OEM of foodservice commercial refrigeration units and equipment, including:

• Blast chillers

• Deli cases

• Food prep tables

• Full-size and reach-in refrigerators

• Glass door and open-air merchandisers 

Most of their gaskets come in four-sided shapes with various profiles (styles) and sizes based on the model’s door dimensions and design to ensure a secure seal. These include magnetic, snap-in, and compression profiles, which refer to the gasket’s physical design and how it’s installed.

While some Beverage-Air gaskets may look similar, buying parts that aren’t meant for your model can risk the following because they’re not providing a secure seal:

• Heat leakage

• Higher energy bills 

• Inconsistent internal temperatures

• Premature unit wear and tear

• Spoiled inventory

How to Know Which Beverage-Air Door Gasket You Need

Unsure which Beverage-Air replacement gasket to buy? Before buying parts, the first step is gathering these specs:

• Model number

• Serial number

• Door dimensions

• Existing gasket measurements (if necessary)

This information determines the type of Beverage-Air gasket required for your model. You can often find this on the door ID tag or owner’s manual. In many cases, OEM-equivalent gasket manufacturers can also help you identify the correct replacement gasket from the model number alone.

Examples of Beverage-Air model numbers that OEM-equivalent gaskets fit include:
