Tips for Keeping your Laboratory Freezer Running Efficiently
Monitor Temperatures Installing an alarmed thermometer monitoring system, like Heathrow Scientific’s Freezer Thermometer, can alert you early to any fluctuations in temperatures that could indicate the need for cleaning or maintenance. Organize to Ensure Proper Air Flow Our Freezer Rack systems not only use all optimal storage space available; they also allow for air flow through the unit. With materials stacked and organized, it makes it easier to locate samples quickly, greatly reducing the amount of time the door remains open . Remove Ice and Frost Routinely An accumulation of ice and frost on racks and doors can interrupt air flow and overwork the freezer. Defrost on a routine basis to keep your unit in proper working order. Clear Debris from Compressor Coils Vacuum or use a brush to clean the compressor coils on the outside of the unit to remove any buildup of dust and grime on a regular basis to keep your unit running smoothly. Also, be sure not to stack any items on or in front of your units venting system. This could cause the compressor to work overtime to maintain temperatures. Clean Door Gaskets To ensure that cold air is not escaping, clean any debris or ice build-up from the door gasket to keep an air-tight seal.
