Proper installation of an absorption minibar is essential for ensuring optimal performance, long lifespan, and guest safety. Below are key guidelines and best practices for hotels when installing this type of minibar.
✅ 1. Placement
• Install the minibar in a location with good ventilation, especially at the back and top.
• Leave a clearance of at least 10 cm at the back and 2–5 cm at the sides and top.
• Avoid direct sunlight, stoves, or other heat-generating appliances.
✅ 2. Ventilation
• Absorption systems require efficient heat dissipation at the rear condenser.
• For built-in furniture installation, provide air inlet and outlet vents at the bottom and top to allow proper airflow.
• If space is limited, consider installing a ventilation fan to improve airflow.
✅ 3. Electrical Safety
• Use a dedicated power outlet for the minibar; do not share with high-power appliances.
• Ensure the voltage matches the manufacturer’s specifications.
• Use grounded plugs to prevent electrical leakage.
✅ 4. Operation and Maintenance
• Keep the minibar running continuously; frequent switching on/off reduces cooling efficiency.
• Avoid overloading—leave space inside for proper air circulation.
• Clean the back panel and ventilation openings at least once or twice a year.
Correct installation of an Absorption Minibar ensures maximum efficiency, silent operation, and long-lasting performance. Hotels should pay special attention to ventilation, placement, and electrical safety to deliver the best possible guest experience.
