Proper refrigerated storage of human remains isn’t just good practice in Pennsylvania — it’s required by law. If your facility stores decedents longer than 24 hours without embalming, you must meet cold storage requirements set by the Pennsylvania State Board of Funeral Directors and the Department of Health.
At MyMortuaryCooler.com, we provide high-performance, American-made mortuary coolers that are fully compliant with Pennsylvania funeral regulations and trusted by professionals throughout the state.
Pennsylvania Funeral Law Requirements
According to PA Code § 13.202, any funeral home or body holding facility must have:
-
A refrigeration unit capable of maintaining 38–40°F
-
Adequate space for the number of bodies held on-site
-
Compliance with Department of Health inspections and facility licensing
These rules apply to funeral homes, crematories, hospitals, and transport services storing remains for longer than 24 hours without embalming.
