NEC 220.56 kitchen equip. demand factor to walk-in cooler/freezer

[Designer_82]

I'm working on a supermarket project that has a bunch of walk-in coolers/freezers for storage and clear glass displays.

Do you normally apply 220.56 kitchen equipment demand to the above or just go conservative and use 100% demand?

Thanks

Consider the consequences if you are too low on your demand factor and the service won't handle the load.
