Small catering business needs a quiet, indoor-safe backup power solution for a commercial two-door reach-in fridge to prevent costly ingredient spoilage during power outages.
Existing portable power stations are designed for residential fridges, not commercial reach-ins with higher startup power draw, and it's unclear if they can run continuously for a day without noise or exhaust in a commercial building setting.

FridgeGuard Pro
A commercial-grade battery backup system specifically for reach-in fridges. It provides quiet, indoor-safe power for up to 24 hours, with surge capacity to handle compressor startup. Includes automatic switchover, remote monitoring, and cold-chain alerts. Unlike generic power stations, it's purpose-built for food service compliance and insurance requirements.
Key Features
- Surge capacity for commercial compressor startup (e.g., 2000W continuous / 4000W peak)
- Sealed, silent, exhaust-free operation for indoor use
- Automatic transfer switch with zero downtime during outage
- Remote temperature and power status monitoring via app with alarms
Target Users: Small to mid-sized restaurant and catering business owners who rely on commercial reach-in fridges and need reliable, safe backup power to prevent food spoilage and lost revenue.
Revenue Model: $49/mo per unit SaaS subscription (includes monitoring and alerts) plus $1,500 one-time hardware purchase for the battery unit; enterprise discounts for multiple fridges.
