What to record before calling
- Record the location and when ice returns.
- Describe doors that fail to close fully.
- Note displayed alarms and any change in cooling.
What the service assessment can cover
A service assessment may review air infiltration, door components, drainage, controls, and defrost operation. Do not chip ice from coils or use improvised heat sources around equipment.
Should I remove the ice before the visit?
Photographs can preserve evidence if your facility must address an immediate obstruction. Ask about the appropriate next step; do not damage equipment or bypass its controls to clear ice.
