A simple, consistent routine prevents most breakdowns:

Daily: Wipe spills, clean door handles and high-touch surfaces, and keep door openings short.

Weekly: Clean shelves, runners and interior corners. Check door seals for gaps, splits, or food debris that prevents a tight close.

Every 2 to 4 weeks (or more often in flour/grease-heavy kitchens): Clean the condenser / intake filter and clear dust and grease. Blocked condenser airflow is one of the most common causes of poor cooling and compressor strain.

Monthly: Check the unit is still level, doors are aligning properly, and drains are clear (if your model has a drain arrangement).

Ongoing: Keep airflow clear inside the cabinet. Avoid overfilling and avoid pushing product hard up against the back where it can disrupt circulation.

If you notice frequent icing, temperature swings, or the unit running constantly, treat it as a maintenance red flag and investigate before it becomes a service call.
