Possible Causes

High bin temperature due to poor insulation, Door gasket not sealing, Frequent door openings, High ambient temperature around unit

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Disconnect power before gasket or panel work.

  • Inspect door gasket: Check for tears, gaps, or hardened sections. Close the door on a sheet of paper; if it pulls out easily, the seal is weak. Replace the gasket if necessary.
  • Check bin insulation: Ensure bin panels are intact and not waterlogged or damaged.
  • Reduce openings: Minimize how often and how long the bin door is open.
  • Improve ventilation: Ensure the unit is not installed next to heat sources and has adequate airflow.
