IMPORTANT WARRANTY INFORMATION
Condensers accumulate dirt and require cleaning every 30 days.
Dirty condensers result in compressor failure, product loss, and lost
sales, which are not covered by warranty.
If you keep the Condenser clean you will minimize your service
expense and lower your electrical costs. The Condenser requires
scheduled cleaning every thirty days or as needed.
Air is pulled through the Condenser continuously, along with dust,
lint, grease, etc.
A dirty Condenser can result in NON-WARRANTEED part &
Compressor Failures, Product Loss, and Lost Sales.
Proper cleaning involves removing dust from the Condenser. By using
a soft brush, or vacuuming the Condenser with a shop vac, or using
CO 2 , nitrogen, or pressurized air.
If you cannot remove the dirt adequately, please call your refrigera-
tion service company.
On most of the reach-in units the condenser is accessible in the
rear of the unit. You must remove the cabinet grill to expose the
Condenser.
The Condenser looks like a group of vertical fins. You need to be able
to see through the condenser for the unit to function at maximum
capacity. Do not place filter material in front of condensing coil. This
material blocks air-flow to the coil similar to having a dirty coil.
THE CLEANING OF THE CONDENSER IS NOT
COVERED BY THE WARRANTY!
HOW TO CLEAN THE CONDENSER:
1.
Disconnect the electrical
power to the unit.
2.
Remove the louvered grill.
3.
