Cleaning Commercial Refrigeration

Cleaning the Interior and Exterior of the appliance

Whilst the appliances are thoroughly cleaned in our factories before delivery, we recommend, that you clean the interior of the appliance before use.

Before cleaning the appliance make sure the power cord is disconnected and any food or debris is removed

  • Do not use solvents or thinners, only use water and non-abrasive neutral detergents.
  • Do not use substances that could alter the taste and smell of stored food
  • Do not use water jets or direct water on to appliances
  • Use a cloth or sponge moistened with a suitable cleaning product to clean the interior and exterior parts of the cabinet.
  • Do not saturate the cloth or sponge.
  • When rinsing use a clean cloth or sponge moistened in clean water.
  • Cleaning should take place at a minimum of once a week or at more frequent intervals in accordance with the usage and type of cabinet and food product being stored or displayed.

Cleaning the Condenser

The condenser is an important part of the refrigeration system.

The condenser will work less efficiently if it is obstructed with any objects, therefore, it must be cleaned at least once a month.

Failure to maintain the condenser will also invalidate the manufacturer’s warranty.

Before cleaning the condenser switch off the appliance, disconnect the power cord and proceed as follows:

  • Counter and Display Refrigeration:
    - open the control panel by slackening the screws and gently pulling down on its hinges or away from the cabinet.
    - be careful not to display wires or switches
  • Top-mounted unit:
    - for units with fixed upper front panels, use a safe step ladder for direct access to the condenser located at the top of the appliance.
  • Cabinets with an overturning upper front panel
    - unscrew the fixing and turn the upper panel on the top hinges.
    - take care not to displace wires or switches.
  • Take care not to trap wires when replacing control panels.
  • Use an air jet or a dry brush and work with up and down movements, removing any dust or fluff that has deposited on the heat exchanger fins.
    - an upholstery brush attached to a vacuum cleaner nozzle is ideal.
    - in cases of greasy deposits, use a brush soaked in benzene or alcohol.
  • During this operation, it is advisable to use the following personal safety features:
    - safety glasses
    - dust mask
    - chemical resistant gloves when using benzine or alcohol
  • Start the appliance after cleaning and check that the cabinet is operating effectively.
