Title: Liner Installation: Use Cardboard
Post by: Jim on January 09, 2008, 08:28:29 pm
Once you have removed the interior liner, replaced the cabinet insulation, it's time to install the cabinet liner.  This tip came from several members and does aid greatly for installing the liner without too much interference of the insulation.

A picture is worth a thousand words...

It's the way to go for sure! As Pat Pixley & I can confirm after having to pull the liner out of his repainted Orange Crush Ideal-55 twice, once for the original re-installation, then again in order to remove & reinstall it again to fix a pesky pin-hole leak in his liners' evaporator coils. it was lots of fun!  :censored: but with the cardboard trick at least it was relativly easy to reinsert the liner/tank back into the chassis ( which can be tricky with an Ideal unit as it has lots of tubing & fasteners to snag the insulation on the way back into the chassis. but sucess was ours. ha-za!  :happydrinkers:

Hey thats a picture of my Vendorlator 56! It really does help. I did one previously without using the cardboard and it was almost impossible. Once I learned this trick it was simple.

Amen !!  to the Card board trick it really does work :Oo:

John is right there are alot of things to get in the way, all that tubing.
plus it take's two people to install that tank with the card  board.
