Winter Storage
If the place of business is to be closed during the
winter months, it is important to protect the freezer
by following certain precautions, particularly if the
building is subject to freezing conditions.
Disconnect the freezer from the main power source
to prevent possible electrical damage.
On water cooled freezers, disconnect the water
supply. Relieve pressure on the spring in the water
valve. Use air pressure on the outlet side to blow out
any water remaining in the condenser. This is
extremely important. Failure to follow this
procedure may cause severe and costly damage to
the refrigeration system.
Your local Taylor Distributor can perform this winter
storage service for you.
Wrap detachable parts of the freezer such as
beater, blades, drive shaft, and freezer door, and
place them in a protected dry place. Rubber trim
parts and gaskets can be protected by wrapping
them with moisture-proof paper. All parts should be
thoroughly cleaned of dried mix or lubrication which
attract mice and other vermin.
It is recommended that an authorized service
technician perform winter storage draining, to insure
all water has been removed. This will guard against
freezing and rupturing of the components.
