Cold storage layout design for distribution centers

LTS Studio 3D — the design module inside Low Temp Desk — gives distribution center refrigeration contractors warehouse-scale cold storage layouts with racking clearance, dock doors and the refrigeration plant in the same drawing. It works in dock coolers, freezer zones, air curtains and large evaporators, so the model already speaks your equipment instead of asking you to draw it line by line.

Questions from distribution centers contractors

Can I use this cold storage layout design for distribution centers?

Yes. Distribution center refrigeration contractors use LTS Studio 3D on dock coolers, freezer zones, air curtains and large evaporators. The module is built so cold storage projects start from a drawing everyone agreed on.

How does it deal with dock traffic and infiltration that a standard load calc ignores?

That case is the reason it exists: dock traffic and infiltration that a standard load calc ignores. Clearances for forklifts, pallet racking and evaporator throw, so the design absorbs the change instead of being redrawn.

Do I need CAD experience or a CAD license?

No. Studio 3D runs in the browser. You enter refrigeration inputs — dimensions, temperature, product, equipment — and the model, the load and the drawing come out of that. Zone-by-zone load so each room gets its own equipment.

Does the design connect to the estimate and the job?

Yes. The design lives on the customer and the project, images and takeoffs drop into the estimate, and the approved version stays attached to the work order and the as-built.

What documentation can I hand the customer?

A branded PDF with the 3D view, the plan, dimensions, equipment selection and the load assumptions. Zone temperature reporting the shipper requires — the export is built to sit in that file.
