Maintenance Tips
-
Clean Regularly: Rinse and wipe down exterior surfaces and the plate-chiller interior after each use to remove residue, oils, or food particles.
-
Flush Plates: Periodically flush the internal plates with clean water (or manufacturer‑recommended cleaning solution) to prevent buildup, scale, or blockages that reduce chiller efficiency.
-
Inspect Seals & Gaskets: Check all seals, gaskets, and connections for signs of wear or leaks; replace them promptly to maintain water-tight performance.
-
Check Hoses & Connections: Ensure inlet/outlet hoses remain secure, free of cracks, kinks, or leaks — replace if damaged.
-
Maintain Proper Water Flow & Drainage: Avoid clogging the drain; ensure water flows freely through the chiller and drainage lines are clear after use.
-
Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners approved for food equipment; avoid bleach or acidic cleaners that can corrode metal surfaces.
-
Dry Thoroughly After Cleaning: After rinsing, let the chiller dry completely before storing to prevent rust or mold.
-
Scheduled Inspection: Periodically have a qualified technician check the internal plates and valves for wear, leaks, or scaling — especially if used intensively.
