and lost sales... which are not covered by warranty.

requires scheduled cleaning every thirty days or as needed.
Air is pulled through the Condenser continuously, along with dust, lint, grease, etc.
A dirty Condenser can result in NON-WARRANTEED part & Compressor Failures, Product Loss, and Lost Sales.
Proper cleaning involves removing dust from the Condenser. By using a soft brush, or vacuuming the Condenser with a shop
vac, or using CO2, nitrogen, or pressurized air.
If you cannot remove the dirt adequately, please call your refrigeration service company.
On most of the units the condenser is accessible in the rear of the unit. You must remove the cabinet grill to expose the
Condenser.
