Title: Static evaporators and mold Post by: Larry on July 03, 2010, 05:38:48 pm Just curious if anyone has ever taken out a static evaporator before on a machine?? A static evaporator uses a metal plate and no fan to pick up the heat from the inside of the cabinet and dispenses the heat out through the condenser. I believe most of the pop machines have air blowing across their evaporators.
My ice cream machines evaporator is a static one and when I removed it the sides of the machine were covered with black mold, actually just the right side was covered. The back and left side had a little mold. Just curious if this is normal. My guess is because of the lack of air circulation the sides mold up. I'm going to leave the door open after I use the machine now. So it can dry out. Yes, I removed the mold before I put the coil back in. However, I didn't bleach the coil. :down: |
