MAINTENANCE, CARE & CLEANING
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.
On the Spec Series units the condenser is accessible on the top of the unit. On certain models you
must remove the cabinet rainshield to expose the Condenser. (TR, TA, and TG models)
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.
