In New York, the proper refrigeration of human remains isn’t just an industry standard — it’s the law. Funeral homes, crematories, and body storage facilities are required to provide refrigerated storage for unembalmed remains to meet state regulations and protect public health.
At MyMortuaryCooler.com, we supply high-performance, American-built mortuary coolers that meet or exceed all New York compliance requirements. Whether you’re operating in New York City, Albany, Buffalo, Rochester, or a rural county, we have a solution that fits your facility.
New York Funeral Law Requirements
Under the New York Public Health Law and oversight from the State Department of Health:
-
Human remains must be refrigerated within hours if embalming or cremation is delayed.
-
Licensed funeral establishments are required to have refrigeration units that maintain temperatures of 40°F or below.
-
Facilities must ensure proper sanitation, accurate record-keeping, and pass periodic state inspections.
Noncompliance can result in state penalties, fines, or suspension of your funeral service license.
