Question:
What kind of maintenance does my freezer require?
Answer:
1) Regularly remove any frost build up by using a plastic/wooden scraper. 
2) Freezers that are equipped with an air cooled condenser will need to be cleaned of dust and debris at least once a year (or more often if the freezer is located where excessive dust and dirt may occur)
** Cleaning can be done with careful vacuuming or by using forced air to blow the debris off.
