Importance of Daily Maintenance
Commercial fridges and freezers have to work much harder than their domestic counterparts. Although specifically designed for commercial use, or maybe because of that, they need daily care and maintenance to perform at their best.
As we explained in our previous article, the care for your commercial cabinet – fridge or freezer, begins with its arrival at your premises:
- Let the fridge or freezer rest in an upright position for at least an hour before switching it on, in case it has been tipped on its back during transport.
- Ensure optimum ventilation to prolong the lifespan of your commercial cabinet and help it work better.
- Proper leveling is paramount for the efficient operation of a professional fridge or freezer.
Proper Use and Loading
The proper daily use and cleaning of a commercial fridge or freezer will ensure it reaches maximum loading capacity and best performance.
- Allow the fridge to reach its operating temperature before loading it with products.
- Ensure products placed in the commercial fridge have the same or a similar temperature, either refrigerated in a special cold room or delivered cold.
- Distribute products evenly, leaving equal space between them for air circulation.
- Avoid placing hot products inside the commercial fridge or freezer to prevent icing of the evaporator and temperature rise.
- Check the thermometer daily to ensure the desired temperature is maintained.
Cleaning and Maintenance
- Regularly clean your professional cooling unit to help maintain ideal temperatures and optimal performance.
- Inspect and clean gaskets regularly. Replace them if damaged, as they are crucial for maintaining temperature levels in the cooling appliance.
- Focus on cleaning both the interior and exterior of commercial fridges and professional freezers daily to ensure the quality of displayed products and the best performance of the units.
