Compressor/thermostat question
Pat Pixley:
Jim, you are right !you have to keep your Machine
stocked to keep it from running all the time.
I have two cases of bottle water that I would load
in my machine when my stock was low it is a great
filler and in the summer when a beer or a pop just is
not going to do, you have bottle water .
there my nickel's worth.

FYI,
Jim is correct. The more product a box has in it, the longer between cycles the unit will run. Second, remember that these boxes are 40 years old and the insulating factor has probably dropped over the years. 32 degrees seems a bit low and thats good! Means that the unit is still running well. In the vending sector, we look for between 38 and 42 degrees. The lower the temperature you are looking for, the harder the unit has to work. Finally, Nate hit it on the head. Keeping the
"dust bunnies" out of the coils is a must! This will drive the head pressure up shortening the life of the compressor! I know, I changed over 475 last year for my customers. Great for me, not much fun for them.

With the new freon, is there anyway to acheive an average tempature of 33 or 34 degrees instead of 38?
globalcompressors:
Sure. The freon really doesn't have much to do with the temperature. The point I was trying to make is that some of the vending customers, on the location, are worried about their light bill. How much will it be going up if we have a vending in our shop or building? It's easier and less costly to maintain 40 or 42 than 35 or 36 thus, ideal at 38-42
degrees.
