All louvered panels should be kept free of dust by
regular vacuuming, so that airflow is not
restricted.
Similarly, louvers in the joinery must also be kept
clean.
For efficient refrigeration performance, the condenser
radiator must be kept clean. Failure to do this will lead
to a build up of dust, and restricted airflow will prevent
the unit from working properly. The compressor may
overheat and the well temperature may rise. Be careful
not to bend or damage the soft aluminium fins when
vacuuming the radiator. If the fins are flattened, airflow
will be restricted and overheating will result.
Regular vacuuming will prevent a build up of dust and
fluff, but three monthly service checks, by a refrigeration
engineer, are mandatory. These should include cleaning
the condenser radiator using compressed air.
The fan deck can be disconnected and
removed from the well, when servicing the
fans.
