What a monoblock is, and when it's the wrong choice
A monoblock puts the condensing unit, evaporator and controls in one factory-matched box. Here is what that changes on site, the side-mount vs top-mount choice, and when a split system fits better.
Buyer's Guides
Upright vs. Chest Freezers: Industry-Specific Guide
Upright vs Chest Freezer guide: Uprights yield ¥1850/m² in retail, chests only ¥920. Medical choose uprights (±0.1℃), marine requires chests (35° tilt resistance). Algorithm: Access Eff×0.3 + Energy×0.25 + Space×0.2. Score≥80 upright, ≤40 chest.
