Why is the condensing unit running for long periods in my Avantco Dispenser?
- S
  smithalanAug 15, 2025
  If the condensing units of your Avantco Dispenser are running for extended periods, this could be due to several reasons. There might be too much water product inside, so allow enough time for it to cool down. Ensure doors are fully closed and not opened for too long. Check the door gaskets, making sure they're snapped in correctly; wash them with soap and water, and replace if needed. A dirty condenser coil can also cause this, so clean it. Finally, check for an iced-over evaporator coil; unplug the unit to defrost it, ensure the thermostat isn't too cold, and that door gaskets are sealing properly.

  If your Avantco Dispenser's cabinet temperature is too warm, try the following: First, adjust the thermostat to a lower temperature. Ensure proper airflow by rearranging the product inside, providing at least 4" of clearance from the evaporator. Allow warm products enough time to cool down before placing them inside. Check for blown fuses or tripped circuit breakers and replace or reset them as necessary. For low refrigerant levels, contact a service technician. Also, make sure the door isn't open for too long or ajar.

  If condensation is collecting on your Avantco Dispenser's cabinet or floor, the gasket might not be sealing properly; clean, repair, or replace it as needed. Also, if the relative humidity is above 60%, move the unit to an area with lower humidity or lower the humidity level.

Why is the beer from my Avantco Dispenser flat and flavorless?
- T
  Travis FarmerAug 28, 2025
  If the beer from your Avantco Dispenser is flat and lacks flavor, and the foamy head disappears quickly, it could be due to several factors. Ensure CO2 lines are always properly charged. Drain and refill the air source with clean air if it's contaminated. Clean glasses with a grease-cutting cleaner. Check for leaks and replace the air source if pressure is insufficient. Keep lines properly charged at all times, even overnight. Inspect lines for loose tap or vent connections and perform regular maintenance. Check connections on the pressure regulator and replace if sluggish. Finally, check for obstructions in the lines and clean them.

Why does the beer from my Avantco Dispenser have a false head?
- J
  Jamie HaysSep 7, 2025
  If the beer from your Avantco Dispenser has a false head with large, soap-like bubbles that dissolve quickly, it may be due to dry glasses; flush them with clean water and drain. Ensure you're pouring correctly: hold the glass at 45 degrees, pour at the midpoint, then tilt upright to 90 degrees, filling until there's a 1" to 1½" head. The pressure required may not match the beer temperature, so research proper temperatures and pressures for your draft product. Lastly, check that the air hose clip is in place and inspect the insulation for damage; repair as needed, as coils in beer lines might be warmer than the beer in the keg.

Why is the beer from my Avantco Dispenser all foam?
- V
  Valerie EllisSep 12, 2025
  If the beer from your Avantco Dispenser is all foam, ensure the keg wasn't agitated before tapping and that it's tapped quickly at the correct temperature. If the faucet is worn down, contact a trained maintenance worker. Check lines for kinks, dents, twists, or obstructions, ensuring they are clear and properly secured. The beer may be too warm in kegs or lines, so ensure the unit is set to the proper temperature, the air hose clip is in place, and insulation is undamaged. Finally, too much pressure can cause this, so ensure the unit operates at the ideal temperature for your product, check the pressure gauge, and inspect the air source.
