L25 - Refrigerator Door Seal
Implementing this symbol means that the business/company is regularly keeping an eye on the proper sealing of all cold rooms and refrigerator door seals. Save $ 1,186.60
Businesses implementing this symbol are also vigilant in monitoring unnecessary overtime working of refrigeration equipment to minimize wear and tear and dehydration of food. Door seals normally last a long time if kept clean. Use an old toothbrush and moisten the seal with a film of Vaseline lubricant, this will keep your door seal from drying out and breaking. The seal will outlive the lifetime of the actual refrigerator if done every two months.
You will save the seal from breaking and also save electricity if the broken seal is gone unnoticed.
