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 CO2, nitrogen, or pressurized air.
If you cannot remove the dirt adequately, please call your refrigeration service company.
The Condenser looks like a group of vertical fins. You need to be able to see through the condenser for the unit to
