Cadaver cold storage runs 24/7 for decades, so the condensing unit and panel construction decide total cost of ownership. Every AMC cooling system uses commercial condensers serviceable by any local HVAC-R technician, high R-value insulated panels, antibacterial interior surfaces, and standard electrical service — no special wiring for most upright and roll-in models. Panels carry a 15-year warranty and compressors a 5-year warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
What temperature is cadaver cold storage kept at?
Refrigerated holding is maintained at 34–39°F, which slows decomposition between the time of death and services, autopsy, or transport. Freezer units for long-term storage hold 0°F to −20°F.
What does a cadaver cold storage unit cost?
Upright and roll-in coolers run $7,600–$10,500, vault-style coolers $14,000–$80,000 by bay count, and walk-in cooler rooms $11,800–$29,000+ depending on size. All AMC pricing is published on each product page.
Do you offer financing?
Yes — financing is available on cadaver cold storage systems through our equipment financing program, and we accept institutional purchase orders.
Who services American-made cooling systems?
AMC coolers use standard commercial refrigeration components, so any licensed local HVAC-R technician can service them — no proprietary parts or factory-only service calls.
