Refrigerators, chillers, cool rooms and refrigeration systems should be properly maintained for superior performance. Here we list the top reasons why refrigerator maintenance is essential.
- Longer life span
A refrigerator is an investment, you want to make the most out of what you’ve spent and get your money’s worth. For this reason, refrigerator maintenance is important, so you don’t spend money again on expensive repairs or early replacement.
- Surprise breakdowns
If you are using refrigeration equipment in your business, you want to avoid any surprise breakdowns. They can be costly and inconvenient. You want to be able to rely on your refrigerator, chiller or cool room to function each and every day.
- Energy efficiency
A refrigerator that has gone years without being maintained will be less energy efficient. Because of this, the cost of your electricity bill may potentially go up, causing you to pay more while getting lower performance levels.
Refrigerator maintenance can also prevent clogging or breaking down issues which could lead to food getting spoiled or going rotten.
And now we look at the top signs that you should give a refrigeration maintenance expert a call.
- Check the blades. If they are worn, bent, or cracked, you will have to call the experts to replace them.
- When you spot the evaporator and the condensing oil as unclean, you can clean them yourself or get expert instructions from a refrigeration maintenance company.
- When the fan motor seems to run slower than usual, it may need to be replaced as well. Only the experts can tell you if it’s running at optimum speed or not so it’s best to consult them regarding this matter.
- If you notice a decay in the suction lines, call the experts as this can cause water damage or condensation.
- Have them check the electrical wirings to ensure they are tight and there are no loose wires.
