Keep Your Commercial Refrigerator Running Smoothly: Key Warning Signs and Solutions
Commercial refrigerators are crucial for preserving food quality and safety. But like any machine, they’re prone to wear and tear. Knowing the signs of trouble can help you prevent spoilage and costly downtime.
Warning Signs to Watch For:
- Excessive Condensation: If you notice moisture inside or outside the unit, it could indicate a faulty seal or insulation problem, leading to temperature instability.
- Spoiled Food Before Expiry: A clear red flag that internal temperatures are fluctuating outside the safe range.
- Unusual Noises: Banging or buzzing sounds may suggest compressor or evaporator fan issues.
- Ice Buildup: Especially around the freezer or condenser coils—this can disrupt airflow and reduce cooling efficiency.
Ignoring these signs can result in a complete system failure. In high-volume kitchens, that could mean thousands of pounds in lost food and sales. Early intervention is key.
