A cover extends over the airflow aisle and the open end to form an air plenum tunnel. The exhaust fan is activated to lower the air pressure within the tunnel and pull enclosure air through openings in and between the product containers and over and around the food product. The exhaust fan further circulates exhaust air over cooling coils and returns exhaust air to the internal space of the enclosure. An air conditioning mechanism is attached to the enclosure outlet
