Sub-Zero Condenser Cleaning Instructions

Topics:

  • How to clean the condenser
  • "Service" or "Vacuum Condenser" flashing
  • Sub-Zero running constantly or not cooling
  • Sub-Zero temperatures are warm or hot
  • Chemical cleaner or degreaser that can be used to clean the condenser

Answer:

Clean the condenser every six to twelve months to keep Sub-Zero refrigeration products operating their best. Clean the condenser more often if pets are present. Do not bend the aluminum fins of the condenser. Follow specific product condenser cleaning instructions below.

  • Condenser cleaning chemicals and degreaser are available from several suppliers and online. They are not necessary to clean a Sub-Zero condenser and are not recommended by Sub-Zero.
