Cleaning the Condenser
WARNING
Disconnect electric power to the ice machine and
the remote condenser at the electric service switch
before cleaning the condenser.
AIR-COOLED CONDENSER
(SELF-CONTAINED AND REMOTE MODELS)
A dirty condenser restricts airflow, resulting in
excessively high operating temperatures. This reduces
ice production and shortens component life. Clean the
condenser at least every six months. Follow the steps
below.
CAUTION
The condenser fins are sharp. Use care when
cleaning them.
1. The washable aluminum filter on self-contained
ice machines is designed to catch dust, dirt, lint
and grease. This helps keep the condenser clean.
Clean the filter with a mild soap and water
solution.

2. Clean the outside of the condenser (bottom of a
remote condenser) with a soft brush or a vacuum
with a brush attachment. Clean from top to
bottom, not side to side. Be careful not to bend
the condenser fins.
3. Shine a flashlight through the condenser to check
for dirt between the fins. If dirt remains:
A. Blow compressed air through the condenser
fins from the inside. Be careful not to bend
the fan blades.
B. Use a commercial condenser coil cleaner.
Follow the directions and cautions supplied
with the cleaner.
4. Straighten any bent condenser fins with a fin
comb.

5. Carefully wipe off the fan blades and motor with
a soft cloth. Do not bend the fan blades. If the fan
blades are excessively dirty, wash with warm,
soapy water and rinse thoroughly.
CAUTION
If you are cleaning the condenser fan blades with
water, cover the fan motor to prevent water
damage.
