Maintenance and Cleaning | Pharmacy Vaccine Refrigerators

General Cleaning Instructions

• Interior, Exterior, and Door Gasket: Clean with a soft cloth and soapy water as needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they may scratch the surface and cause corrosion. Do not use caustic cleaning agents.

• Electrical Components: Do not expose any electrical parts to moisture.

Cleaning Stainless Steel

Stainless steel is generally resistant to corrosion, but some chemicals and a lack of oxygen can cause rust or pitting. When routine cleaning, avoid deionized water and use water that meets the suggested quality requirements in the water quality section. Use a damp cloth for everyday cleaning, and avoid harsh chemicals.

Cleaning the Condenser

1. Power Off: Turn off power at the power point before beginning.

2. Locate the Condenser: The condenser is located on the left-hand side of the cabinet behind the Front Panel. 

3. Remove the Front Panel: To remove the panel, simply lift upwards to remove it. At this point you would have full access to the condenser and would be able to clean it.

4. Clean Carefully: Use a soft brush or vacuum with a soft brush attachment to remove any dust or lint buildup. Be careful not to damage the aluminium fins on the condenser face.

NOTE: The touch screen will remain connected to the front panel. The photos below do not show a Pharmacy Vaccine Refrigerator, but the process is the same. 

Door Gasket Maintenance

The door gasket should be cleaned regularly with a mild soap solution. Regular inspection is recommended. If the gasket needs replacement, please contact Thermoline for assistance.
