This genuine Polar part is a straightforward swap that will get your unit sealing perfectly again, keeping that cold air locked in. It's a quick job, saving you from a costly engineer call-out.
Installation & Maintenance
- Disconnect the unit from mains power before installation.
- Use the correct screwdriver to avoid stripping screw heads.
- Check door alignment carefully after fitting the new hinge.
- Periodically check that all hinge screws remain tight.
