Possible Causes
High room humidity, Door gasket leaking warm air, Mullion or door heater not operating (if equipped), Frequent door openings.
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Most checks can be done with power on; avoid removing exterior panels while energized.
- Check gasket seal: Inspect and replace any damaged gaskets to reduce warm, moist air infiltration.
- Use energy saver settings appropriately: Some Café models have an energy saver or moisture control switch that turns off the door heaters. If you observe condensation, turn the moisture control setting on.
- Reduce humidity: Use a dehumidifier in very humid rooms and avoid leaving the door open for extended periods.
- Heater circuit check: If condensation persists with moisture control activated, the mullion heater circuit or control board may be faulty and require technician diagnosis.
