Introduction
Audience
Acquiring a Coffee Roaster
The intended audience for this manual, the
S15 Pre-Installation and Site Preparation Guide
,
includes customer-side administrators, floor employees, general contractors, facilities managers
and other individuals who are responsible for preparing the site for installation of the roaster.
Preparing for and installing a Loring coffee roaster requires cooperation between the customer
and Loring over several weeks. Generally, the customer should begin preparing the site 3 months
prior to shipping. Upon receiving the roaster, the customer’s general contractor assembles
the roaster, connects the utilities including water, gas, and electric, connects the hot and cold
exhaust ventilation, and then waits for the Loring Field Service Technician to perform final system
commissioning. The commissioning period also includes hands-on customer training in the use and
maintenance of the roaster.
Some tasks, such as ordering stack ventilation components, may require specifying and purchasing
equipment from third-party suppliers. Allow sufficient lead times.
WARNING: Operating the roaster prior to final inspection and commissioning by an
authorized Loring Field Service Technician will void the warranty.
