INFORMATIONS ABOUT SERVICE
FINNED CONDENSER CLEANING
Periodically check and remove from the finned condenser unit
(if present) the impurity (dust and deposit) which remain among
the fins of the condenser, obstructing a good circulation of the air
.
A dirty condenser reduces the performance of the equipment,
increasing the energy consumption.
Cleaning should be carried out with a soft brush or preferably with
a vacuum cleaner.
