Instructions for Condensate Removal Systems
with Condensate Evaporation Pan
Stores without floor drains are using the Condensate Removal System with a Condensate Evaporation Pan. This is a tray located under the
kickplate with a submersible pump that will pump the water to the top of the case and into a Condensate Evaporation Pan. The Condensate
Evaporation Pan has a float switch that will power its heater when the water rises.
NOTE: Anything spilled inside the case will end up in the pump pan and then into the Condensate Evaporation Pan where it will be
heated and cause an odor.
When you have water on the floor, you will need to check the condensate system.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Pump pan (behind kickplate) requires regular cleaning.
Avoid washing (flooding) inside of case with large amounts of water at one time.
The water removal system for 2 to 5-door cases holds two gallons of liquid. 1-door water removal system holds one gallon of liquid. When
cleaning the case, do not use more than this amount of liquid.
The pump sits in the pan and removes water slowly.
Large amounts of water dumped down the drain will overflow the pan.
When you know milk or other liquids are spilled down into the pump pan you should clean the pump pan.
Sediment, paper tags, and other debris will clog either the pump or the plastic tubing leading to the Condensate Evaporation Pan.
Spoiled milk will smell bad if it sits in the pump pan.
Heated spoiled milk will smell – avoid letting this be pumped up to the Condensate Evaporation Pan.
Cleaning: Both the pump pan and the Condensate Evaporation Pan can be cleaned with soap and water.
Block the case drain when you wash out the case – unless you plan to clean the pump pan at the same time.
The Condensate Removal System requires regular maintenance. A dirty pump pan and a dirty Condensate Evaporation Pan are not covered by
warranty service.
WATER ON THE FLOOR
Is there water on the floor at the front of the case? Does it smell? Stores without floor drains
use condensate evaporate pans and pumps. These need regular MONTHLY cleaning.
