Planned preventative maintenance, which is scheduled maintenance aimed at making repairs
BEFORE failure occurs.

Here, you're preventing it from breaking down or running inefficiently.
Planned unscheduled maintenance, which is having a strategy in place to repair or replace an asset as quickly as possible when it fails. Replacing and/or repairing gaskets or a compressor can be considered unscheduled because it usually occurs on an as-needed basis whenever wear is present or the unit breaks down.

Preventive maintenance breakdown
Refrigeration or Refrigerated Systems
The most important thing you can do to maintain any refrigerator or freezer and extend its life, is to keep the condenser clean. Performance of the air-cooled condensing unit, located on top of the cabinet, depends exclusively upon the amount of air passing through the condenser fins. Keep evaporator coils (cold air) and condenser coils (warm air) clean. Never obstruct airflow of fans. Remove dust dirt or debris from coils. Clogged condenser coils are the main cause of compressor failure. Depending on the application, coils should be cleaned monthly or every other month in heavy use areas. COR will determine frequency per piece of equipment at each location.
All evaporator coils should be free of ice by visual inspection.
All door gaskets should seal from outside air completely. Gaps will have a big impact on performance. Seals should be evaluated and repaired/replaced as necessary.
Evaporator fins should be cleaned often, especially when the unit is exposed to grease.
Are temperatures with +/- 5 degrees F of the desired setting?
Is unit plugged in properly? Verify during all onsite inspections.

Check hinges handles, knobs or grates monthly.
Are temperatures with +/- 5 degrees F of the desired setting?
Freezers
Freezers will run more efficiently, consume less energy, and provide a maximum of trouble-free service throughout its lifetime if the condenser is kept clean and an adequate supply of clean, cool air is provided at all times. Periodically (at least once a month) inspect the condenser coil, which is located directly behind the front grill, to check for debris or blockage.
All door gaskets should seal from outside air completely. Gaps will have a big impact on performance. Seals should be evaluated and repaired/replaced as necessary.
Check hinges handles, knobs or grates monthly.
Are temperatures with +/- 5 degrees F of the desired setting.
Walk-in Refrigerator & Freezer
Combination walk-in refrigerators and freezers require the same basic maintenance requirements as single-use units.
As with single-use units, proper walk-in maintenance is crucial with combination units to maximize the equipment's service life and energy efficiency. Inspect evaporator coils for ice build-up and dripping monthly. Inspect drain lines for blockage monthly.
Thoroughly vacuum condensers. Dirt or debris blocking a condenser can cause the unit to overheat and fail. Check evaporator fan blades to ensure there are no nicks that will compromise operation.
Visually inspect doors to check for torn gaskets and seals.
Check hinges handles, knobs or grates monthly.
Are temperatures with +/- 5 degrees F of the desired setting.
Is unit plugged in properly? Verify during all onsite inspections.
Griddle and Range Top Maintenance
Maintaining grills is important from a safety standpoint since grease build up is a fire hazard. When cleaning flat top griddle visually inspect doors to check for torn gaskets and seals.
Are temperatures with +/- 5 degrees F of the desired setting.

Brush out crumbs and other remnants from the interior.
Wipe down interior walls with a damped soft cloth. Use mild dish soap, if necessary.
Wipe down exterior surfaces with a soft cloth, warm water and mild detergent.
Clean the flattop with a solution of warm water and mild detergent (if applicable).

Burn off grates by placing on broiler face down.
Keep air shutters clean.
Keep pilots clean.
Replace elements and grates semiannually.
Check for proper ventilation.
Gas Grill
Although carbon debris acts as a non-stick coating, sealing steel from damaging sodium and citric acids, grill grates should be scraped and cleaned periodically with a wire brush to remove excess food particles. Gas grills should be cleaned and scrapped quarterly.
Take apart and wipe down grills once per month, depending on the operation's volume and type of products cooked.
Radiants should be checked at monthly and cleaned thoroughly in a pot sink.
Radiants and lava rock should be replaced every six to 12 months, or as needed depending on the operation's volume.
Quarterly burners should be checked for cracks and pin holes, which can cause uneven cooking and premature wear on the unit. Burner valves should be oiled monthly.
Are temperatures with +/- 5 degrees F of the desired setting.
Visually inspect doors to check for torn gaskets and seals.
Check hinges handles, knobs or grates monthly.
Burner air shutter openings must be kept clean and free of grease build up
Burner ports must be kept clean. To clean burners, boil them in a detergent and water solution for 15-20 minutes, then either brush with a wire brush or clean gas ports with a sharp-pointed metal instrument to ensure open ports. Use caution not to enlarge or damage ports.
The open burner pilot flash tubes and the burner ignition port must be clear for burners to ignite properly from the pilot.
Steamers, Kettles & Tilt Braising Pans
Clean the unit with warm water, mild detergent, and a brush.
Empty and clean drip trays with mild detergent and warm water.
Steam kettles only – Wipe down external and interior surfaces with a soft cloth dampened in mild detergent and warm water.
Tilt braising pans only – Wash front, back, sides and splash guards with a soft cloth, warm water and mild detergent.
Are temperatures with +/- 5 degrees F of the desired setting.
Visually inspect doors to check for torn gaskets and seals.
Check hinges handles, knobs or grates monthly.
Combi Oven Maintenance
Because combi ovens relies on steam to cook foods, it will be required to perform regular deliming maintenance to prevent scale buildup. Many combi ovens include an automatic cleaning feature. The equipment manual will contain more detailed information on the types of cleaning cycles your combi oven requires. Contractors should reference the manual cleaning schedules and document proper cleaning of each combi oven in coordination with the owners scheduled cleanings. Cleaning should be as follows if not expressed in the owner’s manual:
Monthly Combi oven
Clean racks and interiors
Remove and clean drip tray
Clean and sanitize food probe
Wipe down door gasket with approved cleaner
Delime the steam generator
Remove and clean air filters
Inspect drain lines

Check hinges handles, knobs or grates monthly.
Are temperatures with +/- 5 degrees F of the desired setting.
Meat Slicer
Monthly Lubrication is required per device
The motor and knife bearings are permanently lubricated - do not add oil or grease. To insure continued smooth operation of sliding parts, use the oil supplied with the slicer or a light mineral oil as follows:
Apply about ten drops of oil to platform shaft every two months. NOTE: Shaft must be clean before lubricating.
