How to tell if commercial refrigeration parts need replaced
June 8, 2019
Commercial refrigeration systems are complex, and this means they have many parts that are vital to their operation. However, not everyone is aware of the signs that certain components need to be replaced or repaired. Here are two signs that you need to have commercial refrigeration system parts repaired or replaced.
- Difficulty maintaining temperature
Commercial refrigeration systems like freezers and refrigerated cases are typically used to store food. This means that they have to be able to maintain a certain temperature so the food is stored properly. One indication that it鈥檚 time to replace parts in your commercial refrigeration equipment is that your systems can鈥檛 maintain the correct temperature.
It doesn鈥檛 take very much to throw off a refrigeration system鈥檚 ability to maintain a set temperature. For instance, your system could have old or damaged door seals that are allowing cold air to escape. It may also have a dirty compressor that鈥檚 creating extra heat. Even a damaged cooling fan can lead to increases in case temperature. To ensure these problems don鈥檛 lead to more serious issues, you should call a commercial refrigeration system repair service if you notice systems struggling to maintain their set temperature.
2. 聽聽Higher than normal energy usage
Another indication that your systems may have components that need replaced or repaired is that they鈥檙e using more energy than normal. For instance, a damaged door hinge can be enough to increase energy usage even though it seems like a minor issue.
After all, without properly operating door hinges, the doors one your refrigeration system won鈥檛 shut correctly. This can lead to gaps through which cold air can escape. As cold air escapes the system, other system components like compressors and condensers will have to run more to try to keep the interior of the system cold, and this extra running will cause your systems to use more energy than normal.
