Reasons for Reduced Cooling Efficiency in Chiller Fridge
When purchasing a commercial refrigerator, sales representatives often assure us of the product’s cooling efficiency and quality, guaranteeing no issues within a certain period. However, many users experience a significant drop in cooling efficiency after several months of use, sometimes leading to complete cooling failure. Below, we delve into the potential reasons behind this issue and provide solutions for each scenario. Please read on for detailed information.
Cause 1: Ice Blockage in the Refrigeration System
One common issue in commercial refrigerators and chiller freezers is ice blockage within the refrigeration system. This can cause the thermostat to keep working non-stop, which in turn forces the compressor to run continuously. The excessive workload can eventually lead to the compressor burning out.
Cause 2: Overloaded Air Vents
Users often utilize every available space within their display freezer or chiller fridge, sometimes even blocking the air vents with food items. When the vents are obstructed, cold air cannot circulate efficiently, resulting in poor cooling performance.
Cause 3: Faulty Fan Motor
A malfunctioning fan motor in a chiller freezer or commercial refrigerator can also lead to reduced cooling efficiency. If the fan is not spinning properly, it needs to be replaced promptly to restore the refrigerator’s performance.
Cause 4: Improper Digital Controller Settings
The thermostat settings in chiller fridges and display freezers should be adjusted according to the season and ambient temperature. During hot summer months, it is advisable to set the temperature lower, whereas in the cold winter months, the temperature should be set higher to maintain optimal cooling efficiency.
Cause 5: Compressor Issues
If the cooling efficiency of a commercial refrigerator remains poor after addressing the above causes, the issue might lie with the compressor. There are two main possibilities: the compressor might be of poor quality and has aged over time, or it may lack sufficient refrigerant. In such cases, it is recommended to consult a professional technician for repair or maintenance.
By understanding these potential issues, users can take proactive steps to maintain their commercial refrigerators, display freezers, chiller fridges, and chiller freezers in optimal condition.
