Receiving and Uncrating
Congratulations! You have purchased a brand new W.A. Brown & Son, Inc. Walk-In Cooler or Freezer. To ensure
proper set-up and many years of trouble free use, read and follow these instructions carefully before and during
installation. This manual covers the basic installation of a standard walk-in. See sheets enclosed with shipment for
installation instructions for items not covered in this manual.
If You Have Freight Damage:
Brown walk-ins are shipped on pallets with shrink wrap, in dedicated trucks or in specially marked and designated
cartons. These methods have been chosen to decrease the possibility of freight damage, however, each shipment
should be inspected for exterior damage. If damage is found, please note it on the delivery freight bill and call
W. A. Brown Customer Service. Under NO conditions may a damaged unit be returned to W. A. Brown & Son, Inc.
without first obtaining permission.
Checklist Suggestions:
•
•
•
Read and understand the installation manual and cooler drawings before attempting to install the walk-in.
Make sure you have the number of pallets or crates listed on the Bill of Lading.
Remove all panels from their shipping cartons and stack them in rows of like panels; wall panels in one row,
ceiling panels in another, etc. Panels with a 6" yellow sticker are non-standard panels and have a particular
location in the walk-in. This number can be found on the drawing identifying the location of these panels. All
standard panels are interchangeable. You do however, have to put the proper size in the proper location.
•
•
The refrigeration should be inspected upon receipt.
Check the shipping list to insure you have the correct number of panels, doors and accessories. If any prob-
lems are found, please contact the factory as soon as possible.
•
•
Locate accessories box for buttons, assembly wrench and a drawing.
Panels that have a PVC protective covering on the metal skins should have the PVC removed as the panel is
selected for installation. This will make removal of the PVC easier.
•
•
It is recommended to use two people to handle panels. For door sections and larger panels a dolly or pallet jack
may be useful.
If panels must be stored on a job site prior to installation, it is recommended that they be stored inside. Panels
received on skids or in cartons, should be stored as received, provided the skid or carton is on a level
surface and kept free from moisture. If the panels are received without crating, they should be stored on edge
with the female edge of the panel down. (Stacking may cause damage.)
•
Your door and section will be labeled with an ID# such as 1D, 1D1, 2D, etc. This ID# along with your drawing
will help you locate the door and section in the proper position.

Floor Preparation and Installation
Installation instructions are provided for walk-ins with insulated floor panels or walk-ins set on spline. Instructions
are also provided for the application of walk-ins in areas requiring adherence to wind or seismic loads.
Warning! A level walk-in is essential. If the floor is not level, the vertical
panels will not be plumb and the hinged door will not operate properly and
panels will not seal properly.
Layout of the Floor
Check the floor plan of the walk-in for the exact l
panels as indicated on the floor panel layout dra
is furnished with each walk-in. The building area
the walk-in is to be erected should be chalked to
base of the box. If the walk-in is to be erected
next to an existing wall a 2" clearance should
be allowed for surface irregularity. Set-up
‘Builders Level’ per instructions. Take readings a
selected intervals on a story pole to determine th
highest point of floor assembly. Mark the high po
and shim to this level.
Shims of 24 to 12 gauge sheet metal or cedar
recommended. Shims should be cut a minimum
must extend under the whole section, not just t
be at each end, at all wall seams and at each f
should be no further than 12" apart. Shimming
not supplied with shipment. An alternate metho
sand. Cover the sand with a poly film or asphalt paper before installing the floor. See Figure #1.
Installation of floor panels
Installation of the floor may begin when the floor leveling is complete. Refer to the floor panel layout drawing which has
been furnished with the walk-in. Begin installing the floor with an end panel. Continue until all panels are set and are
level. Engage all cam locks as the panels are installed. Recheck levelness of the floor panels after all are complete.
Warning! Position the floor panels per the drawing to ensure that the door
will be properly placed. In multiple compartment walk-ins with a partition
section, it is imperative that the panels be located in proper position and turned
correctly so that walls and tops will lock securely.
Warning!Attention Floor Contractors: Some chemicals and vapors in field
applied floor materials can cause metal corrosion. Use extreme care to keep
these materials off of metal surfaces and to keep doors open fully and the
cooler ventilated until inside flooring is cured.
Diamond Aluminum Treadplate Overlay Instructions
All treadplate material will be cut to size, to match the entire interior surface less 1/2" on all four sides.
1. Clean and dry subsurface
2. Apply silicone to underside of treadplate
3. Begin laying first row of Treadplate Overlay 1/2" away from the edge of the floor according to the Drawing and
secure the subsurface with sheet metal screw/anchor.
4. All sheets must be flush as possible with one another.
5. All sheets can be secured using a sheet metal screw every 24".
6. Continue to follow the layout of treadplate according to the drawing until all sheets are flush and secure to the
subsurface.
7. Caulk all seams and edges of treadplate layout.
8. Allow 1-3 hours to dry before resuming use of walk-in.

Cam Lock Installation
All panels are connected with a mechanical Cam lock which is activated by using a hex
wrench (included with your shipment). There are both a male section, and a female
section. The locks are foamed in place and securely anchored to provide a solid
connection, when the locking arm is tightened around the locking pin which is located in
the female section.
To operate the latch, insert the wrench through the access hole which is located on the
inside of each panel. Turn the wrench counter-clockwise to fully unlock and retrieve the
locking arm. Pushing together the two panels you wish joined, you will then turn the
wrench one quarter turn clockwise. Continue to turn the wrench until you feel the panels
lock together. You should feel the lock hit the stop position.
Some custom panels may have specialized lock locations. They will be so marked. Follow those markings when
connecting these panels.
Make sure you have the panels in the correct and final position before locking, as continued locking and unlock-
ing may result in less than satisfactory operation.
Floorless Walk-In Layout
Floor Spline Layout and Installation
Warning! When W. A. Brown does not provide the insulated floor, check
carefully before installing the walk-in for appropriate thermal breaks. Severe
floor heaving problems occur when floors are not adequately insulated. Consult
the W. A. Brown Working Data Catalog for details.
1. Mark on the building floor the exact area the walk-in will occupy.
2. Lay the spline out as indicated on the spline layout drawing (See Figure #2) which is furnished with each walk-
in. Each section is numbered and must be layed out as shown in order for the wall panels to lock down
properly. Measure diagonally from corner to corner to be sure the floor spline is square.
3. The entire floor spline must be leveled from the highest point.
Warning! On walk-ins larger than 10' x 10' it is recommended that a
transit level be used to level the floor spline rather than a spirit level.
4. Determine where shims are needed for leveling, and cut them to the width of the spline. (W. A. Brown does
not furnish these shims.)
5. Fasten the spline to the floor usng ramset studs, screws,
expansion bolts, etc. (S

2. “Tapcon” drill bit; 3/16" x 6 1/2" (No. 790-1036 or equal)
Drill through the female cam lock located in the floor panel into the concrete pad to a depth of 2" or more to insure
the anchor does not bottom out. (If leveling shims are required, locate shims close to the location of the anchors)
Space holes around the perimeter of the floor system at each cam lock location (eliminate anchors when space
is less than 15" from previous anchor) spaced no further than 24". Insert and tighten the “Tapcon” anchors into
each hole. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN. Recheck floor for level and square prior to installation of walls.
PVC Panel Track Installation for Floorless Walk-In
Warning! When W. A. Brown does not provide the insulated floor, check
carefully before installing the walk-in for appropriate thermal breaks. Severe floor
heaving problems occur when floors are not adequately insulated. Consult the
W. A. Brown Working Data Catalog for details.
PVC Panel Track Layout (Required where no insulated floor is ordered from Brown)
1. Mark the exact area the walk-in will occupy on the building floor.
2. Field cut 12' pieces of the PVC panel track to size for your particular walk-in. Cut ends on a 45 degree
angle to accommodate corner panels. A hack saw will work well for this cut. (See Figure #4)
3. Mark and cut door opening location.
4. Fasten track to the floor using ramset studs, screws or other fasteners (not supplied by WAB.) (See Figure #5)
5. Determine where shims are needed for leveling, cut them so they will fit in the channel of the track.

is pointed up and the male tongue of the panel (edge w/cam locks) is on the right side when standing
inside the walk-in.
2. When locks are in standard positions, rotate clockwise to engage the locking pin. Refer to prints for locks that
are special applications: lock counter-clockwise, lock from exterior of panel, etc.
3. Install a wall panel on each side of the corner panel for stability. Make sure that all wall panels are even at the top.
4. Continue to install all wall and corner panels. Next install the wall containing the door. This provides better
support for correct setting of the door.
5. Be sure to engage all cam locking devices in each wall panel. After all wall, corner, and door panels have
been installed, check for squareness by measuring diagonally from corner to corner and adjust if neces-
sary. Check that walls are plumb with a 4' spirit level and adjust if necessary.
6. The angle brackets on the interior of the door section must be secured to the floor after the door is plumb.
Warning! If the wall panels have not been properly leveled and squared,
the top panels will not align and gapping or stair stepping will occur. This should
be corrected before attempting to install the remaining top panels.
Wall Protector Plate (Wainscotting) Instructions
All Wall Protector Plate is cut to size and labeled in accordance to the drawing for easy installation.
1. Clean and dry wall surface
2. Follow the sequence of labels on the sheets of treadplate in accordance to the labeling on the drawing to
layout the proper placement of treadplate.
3. Attach corner pieces, if applicable first, by applying to wall. Make sure the treadplate makes contact with the
finished outside floor. Secure to wall using sheet metal screw every 24".

Fiber Cement Finish Panels Installation
Fiber Cement panels are available in vertical siding and smooth styles. Smooth Fiber Cement is designed to
have a Stucco finish applied in the field or to be painted. Vertical siding style is meant to be field painted to
more closely match existing construction. See instructions below on painting Fiber Cement.
Inspect all panels as outlined on page 1. All door sections and Buck Openings on Fiber Cement Walk-Ins are
constructed using W.A. Brown traditional metal finishes.
Set out panels as outlined on page 1. Fiber Cement panels have a gasket on one side (the inside) and require
caulking at the joint between the outside skins. Use only the approved ChemCaulk 2000 sealant manufactured by
Bostik to seal these joints. This construction grade sealant is specifically designed for fiber cement and Hardie
Board materials. If the include caulk option was chosen at the time of quotation and purchase, ample material
will be supplied with the shipment. If not, this material can be purchased locally.
Caulk all wall to wall, wall to ceiling and wall to floor or floor screed joints with a .25” or 1/4” bead of material before
locking the panels together. This will assure a good seal. Complete this process with the installation of each panel.
Only the exterior fiber cement skins need to be caulked. No caulking is required on the interior gasketed surfaces.
Painting Fiber Cement
Flashing for Fiber Cement coolers and freezers will be factory primed, and will require on site final painting. Door
sections and the door leaf can be primed at the factory for an optional charge if noted at time of order entry.
If you have not ordered factory priming, it can be accomplished on site. Latex paint is suitable for Fiber Cement,
however it may not adhere properly to certain vinyl trim pieces.
After your Fiber Cement Walk-In has been fully assembled, it will be necessary to apply a finished coat of paint to
all exposed surfaces. It is recommended that primed siding must be painted within 180 days of installation. Apply
a high-quality, 100% acrylic paint. Solid or semi-transparent stains should be used only on unprimed Fiber Cement.
Never use oil-based paints on Fiber Cement. For further questions on priming and painting Fiber Cement, feel free
to contact W. A. Brown, or call Duck Back, Woodperfect Fiber Cement Coating at 800-825-5382. Ask about their
water based, alkaline resistant, acrylic Latex primer and paint.

Trim is used to finish off all Walk-In Cooler and Freezers other than Drop-Off units and is left to the installer, as
not all field conditions are identical. Trim is packed with each shipment (as required) from W. A. Brown.
Install corner trim pieces first. Use four #6 self tapping screws supplied (See Figure 13-1). Install trim metal
between corners. Overlap all joints by 1/2". Use one screw every 2' (See Figure 13-2). Caulk bottom of trim as
needed. An inverted corner will not use corner trim pieces. Full length pieces are to be butted together in the
corner (See Figure 13-3)
Figure #13-2

Drop-Off Walk-In Coolers and Freezers
Prior to the arrival of your Drop-Off Walk-In, you are responsible for assuring that the concrete slab is the appro-
priate size, thickness and level. Remember that the Drop-Off unit comes on metal runners which will affect the
height of the floor.
Upon arrival, visually inspect the Walk-In for dents, scratches and other issues.
Unload the Walk-In and position properly. Finish door and threshold trimming.
Final positioning of the Drop-Off unit is the responsibility of the end user or general contractor.
Make final electrical connections in accordance to prevailing codes and start the cool down process.
Warning! The electricity should not be turned on any door with a heater
until the refrigeration system has been activated, as a failed heater wire may
result. Do not operate Light with globe unless unit is cooled down. Maximum
bulb size is 100 watts

EZ Pack Installation Instructions
(See Installation Guide taped to top of each unit.)
Installing the Refrigeration System
A qualified technician should install the refrigeration. Contact the dealer from who you purchased your Walk-In for
a qualified technician.
Carefully raise refrigeration system to top of walk-in. Insert projecting sleeve of evaporator box in to cut out of panel.
Install louvered grill on interior side of top panel. Grill should be installed with fan motors.
NOTE: On smaller systems unit can be installed on top panel before panel is installed on walk-in.
Warning! Never run system on an extended drop cord.
Allow sufficient airflow around the condenser. A minimum of 2-foot clearance is required for proper operation. If
more than one unit is located in the same area, do not exhaust hot air into other units. Indoor EZ Pack systems do
not require drains.
Airflow should always be directed towards door section.
Setting Controls:
+
On walk-in coolers, the thermostat is factory set at 35 degrees. Walk-in freezers are set at minus 10 degrees. Step-
in freezers are set at 0 degrees. Adjustments can be made at control on thermostat located in evaporator box. On
walk-in freezers a defrost timer will have to be set to time of day. Defrost timer is located within condenser hous-
ing. Refer to Heatcraft Installation Guide for “Pro” Series.
For Electrical Table, Refer to page 5, Heatcraft Installation Guide.
Final Checks Before Operation
1. If the door has a threshold plate, secure it to the floor with the screws that are provided. These screws are
supplied by W. A. Brown and are taped to the door handle.
2. Check the door for alignment and proper operation. Check tightness of the door when it is shut. The use of
magnetic gaskets eliminates the need for the positive style door latch to be snug. A little play is acceptable.
3. Check the door for proper seal. If the door does not close and seal properly, check that the door section is plumb
with a spirit level and adjust as necessary.
4. When a floor spline is used, secure the door angles to the building floor. We recommend you use expansion
bolts or a ram set type gun. Door must be plumb.
5. On door sections that do not have a threshold, it will be necessary to fasten spline covers at the bottom of the
door. These covers are fastened to a wood shipping bar used to space the opening at the bottom of the door
section.
6. Adjust the drag gasket on the bottom of the door. It should drag lightly on the threshold plate or floor to allow
for pressure relief.
7. Secure thermometer bulb if it is not a model secured at the factory.
8. Insert the metal plug buttons into the lock wrench holes in all panels.
9. Check that all penetrations have been sealed. These penetrations must be sealed on the outside as well as the
inside of the hole with silicon to prevent moisture entering the walk-in. (Sealant not provided by W. A. Brown.)
Warning! The electricity should not be turned on any door with a heater
until the refrigeration system has been activated, as a failed heater wire may
result.

Wiring the Door Heater, Lights & Windows
All freezers and some coolers are shipped with a 120V peripheral heater around the door to eliminate
condensate and keep the door frame and jamb from “sweating”. Likewise most freezer windows are also
designed with a 120V heater for the same reason.
Vapor Proof Light
This light is internally wired to the light switch. Only source power needs to be wired into the junction box
powering the light. Maximum bulb size is 100 watts. Do not operate with globe until walk-in is at operating
temperature.
Fluorescent Lights
These lights are field installed and will require both source power and internal wiring by a qualified electrician.
The above will be wired to door switch via “J” Box on interior of door section in most cases.
All installation should be in accordance with NSF and prevailing electrical code.
Warning! When installing your Walk-in cooler or freezer, always use a
qualified electrician for all your wiring needs. Refer to wiring diagram included
in this manual.

Cleaning of Stucco Aluminum & Galvalume Plus
The ceiling, walls and floors of Brown walk-ins are covered with a metal finish. Cleaning of this surface can be
accomplished by the use of a mild detergent, warm water and a soft cleaning cloth.
The use of an abrasive type cleaner can scratch the surface of the metal. The use of any form of cleaning agent
that contains any form of acid may cause a discoloring or darkening of the metal finishes. Markings made by felt
tip pens or “Magic Markers” can be removed by use of lacquer thinner, varsol, or naphtha. After using these clean-
ers, wash the space with soap and warm water to remove any chemical residue.
Cleaning Stainless Steel Finishes
1. Always clean in the direction of the grain.
2. Use alkaline, alkaline chlorinated or non-chloride containing cleaners. If you are unsure, check with your
cleaner supplier.
3. Rinse, Rinse, Rinse.
Cleaning of Door Gaskets
Magnetic door gaskets should be cleaned with mild detergents and hot water. Remove all soap film and dry
thoroughly with a clean cloth. Strong cleaners are corrosive and should not be allowed to come in contact. Never
use acids (hydrochloric or muriatic for example) on door gaskets.

Replacing The Digital Thermometer
Turn off breaker before disconnecting wires.
If the thermometer does not register correctly you will need to check the following:
1. Check the voltage on the load side of the transformer. It should be 12 volts.
2. If the voltage is not 12 volts on the load side of the transformer, check the
line side to confirm that proper voltage is reaching the transformer.
3. If you have 115 volts on the line side and nothing on the load side you will
need to change the transformer.
4. If the transformer checks good you will need to change the digital display.

Operating Instructions for TAI-2000D-12 Temperature Display & Alarm
Input Voltage
12 VAC Only
DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO 120VAC
The line voltage of 120VAC shall be connected to the two (2) black leads, one with a white sleeve, from the transformer provided and
attached to the exterior of the junction box located on the interior of the cooler above the door. These wires will be found within the
junction box. Connect one black to the hot leg & one black with white sleeve to the neutral leg. Connect the green wire to ground. The
two yellow wires with the fork terminals protruding from the center of the junction box must be connected to the 12VAC side of the
transformer. Additional length may be obtained by loosening the black bushing and withdrawing ample wire to make the connection.
Reference the wiring diagram on this sheet.
NOTE: (Prior to December 2002 both 120Vleads were black & 12V black & white)
Back Up Power
Remove the faceplate of the unit and install a 9 Volt battery to the harness.
During a power failure, the unit will remain dark. The battery backup will allow a momentary check of temperature and will produce an
audible alarm should the storage temperature exceed the alarm set points.
To check the temperature when in battery backup mode, depress the reset button. The current temperature will appear. The alarm,
if activated, will silence for 5 minutes. After that, the unit will then become active again. This procedure will continue until the
temperature returns within the designated set points.
Programming Unit
To set the High Set Point temperature, depress the Set button until HSP appears. Push again to display
the factory setting. Using the adjust buttons set the desired upper limit temperature.
To set the Low Set Point temperature, depress the Set button until LSP appears. Push again to display the
factory setting. Using the adjust buttons set the desired lower limit temperature.
NOTE: If the programming sequence is interrupted for more than 15 seconds, or not completed to the point
where the display flases once, the unit will automatically revert back to the temperature display mode and
to the factory settings for HSP & LSP without acknowledging any new set values.
Normal Operation
Following successful programming, if at any time the temperature within the cooler or freezer travels beyond the set limits (HSP
or LSP), the display will flash and the alarm will sound. To silence the alarm push the reset button. The alarm will stop for 5 min-
utes. The display will continue to flash indicating an alarm condition and will continue to do so until the temperature within the
unit returns within programmed settings. If after 5 minutes the temperature remains outside of desired conditions, the alarm will
then sound again. The process for silencing the alarm may be repeated.
Three dots…on display indicates that the battery is low or is not installed.
Calibration "CAL"
Calibration "CAL": This temperature display on this unit may be calibrated either up or down if required. This is preset by the
manufacturer. Do not attempt to change without checking with the customer service department at W.A. Brown & Son, Inc.
Call 1.800.640.0593 for assistance.
During new installation it is suggested that the High Set Point (HSP) be temporarily set at 100˚ F and the Low Set Point (LSP) to
–30˚ F to eliminate any unnecessary alarms when power is activated to this unit and the refrigeration in the cooler or freezer has yet
to be started.
