Inspection and Repair of Electrical 
System 

 

* Koldwave Technical Services 
Department must be contacted prior 
to or during any repair/service on a 
unit which is under warranty. 

 

Service other than routine 
maintenance should be performed 
only by a qualified refrigeration 
service person. 

 

Always disconnect power and discharge 
capacitors before servicing. 

 

Compressor and Fan Motor Capacitors 

Visually check the capacitors for bulges or 
signs of leakage. Using a capacitor tester, 
check each capacitor shorts, grounds, or 
leakage. Also verify the capacitance in mfd 
matches the capacitor rating. 
 

Inspection and Repair of 
Refrigerant System 

 

* Koldwave Technical Services 
Department must be contacted prior 
to or during any repair/service on a 
unit which is under warranty. 

 

Service other than routine 
maintenance should be performed 
only by a qualified refrigeration 
service person. 

 
Check all connections and every part for 
leaks whenever the refrigerant system is 
repaired.  Use a leak detector, soap solution, 
or a halide torch to inspect the system. 
 
When repairing a refrigerant leak, the 
brazing flame will cause oxidation to occur 
inside the copper tubing being repaired.  It is 
therefore desirable to use a slightly reduced 
flame and to flow dry nitrogen gas through 

the refrigerant piping while brazing to 
prevent this oxidation from taking place.  
Once the repair is completed, thoroughly 
evacuate the refrigerant system with a 
vacuum pump before recharging the system. 
 
Koldwave strongly recommends a 
filter/dryer be installed when any repairs are 
made to the refrigeration system. 
 
 

Preventative Maintenance 

 

Your Koldwave portable spot cooler has 
been designed to give maximum 
performance and reliability with minimum 
maintenance.  Maintenance of the system is 
concentrated in three areas covered in the 
following paragraphs. 
 

Blower Motors  

 

Caution: Always disconnect the power 
source before working on or near a motor 
or its connected load. 

 
The motor may require periodic cleaning to 
prevent the possibility of overheating due to 
an accumulation of dust and dirt on the 
windings or on the motor exterior. 

 
Filter 

 
The life of a filter depends entirely on its 
environment and use.  It is recommended 
that air filters be inspected on a regular basis 
every four to six weeks.  A clogged filter 
will cause the unit to operate at greatly 
reduced efficiency.  This unit employs one 
1/2" thick, washable aluminum mesh air 
filter located behind the louvered front 
(evaporator) panel. The evaporator filter can 
easily be removed and cleaned; pull down 
the evaporator intake hinged door and pull 
the filter out.  The filters must be washed 
periodically when needed. This may be done
