hackbar Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 Hi, I have an old Dixie Narco DN 240-5. This seems to be pretty rare (my understanding is they were all owned by Coke so rarely escaped to the private market). I could only find this post on this site - https://vendiscuss.net/topic/33034-new-member-old-dixe-narco-dn-240 After sitting for a few years during covid, the chiller has stopped working. Any tips with what to do? Try to refill the freon (I assume it's R-12?), or get a new compressor? Is there a good way to identify what type of refrigeration unit it has, and if there's any sort of modern replacement? I can post some pics if that would help.

AZVendor Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 I'm sure it's low on freon. But you should pay a qualified vending tech to charge it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackbar Posted March 26, 2023 Author Share Posted March 26, 2023 Anyone got a recommendation for a repair tech in the San Francisco Bay area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vendo Mike Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Betson was handling most of the issues from their Hayward office but they closed that building. Call their Santa Fe Springs office and they can probably point you toward a repair tech in SF/Oakland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
