Fridge Faults We Repair
As part of the comprehensive services we offer Melbourne businesses, Elgendy Refrigeration repairs several types of fridge faults. Some of the most common issues include:
Fridge Not Cooling or Holding Temperature
If commercial fridges feel warm or cannot maintain their set temperature, they may have a faulty thermostat, sensor, fan, compressor or refrigeration control. Additionally, dirty condenser coils, restricted airflow and low refrigerant can also affect their cooling ability.
Under such circumstances, we recommend keeping the doors closed while you are waiting for our team to arrive. That said, it is advisable to quickly move vulnerable stock to another cold storage system.
Compressor Faults
The compressor is an important component of a commercial refrigeration system because it circulates the refrigerant. However, if you notice unusual noises coming from it, or it repeatedly starts and stops, overheats, or runs continuously without cooling properly, it may need repair.
Our technicians can test the compressor, electrical components, and refrigerant circuit before recommending the most suitable repair option.
Door Seal and Door Damage
If your door seals are worn, they will allow warm, humid air to enter the cabinet. This can result in the fridge running for longer and using more power. It can also develop condensation or ice around the door.
Elgendy Refrigeration will inspect and repair faulty seals, hinges, closers, handles and door alignment. Depending on the extent of the damage, we may need to adjust, rebuild, or fit replacement components to the commercial fridge door.
Ice Build-Up, Leaking Water and Blocked Condensers
Excessive ice can form when warm air enters through damaged seals or if the defrost system stops working properly. At the same time, water leaks may come from a blocked condensate drain, a damaged tray, or melting ice, while dust, grease, and debris can also collect around a condenser, particularly in busy commercial kitchens.
Our team identify the underlying fault for all these issues to ensure the problems do not recur.
Interior Lighting and Electrical Faults
If your interior lights are faulty, it can make stock difficult to see. This, in turn, may affect the presentation of customer-facing cabinets. Likewise, if a light remains on when the door closes, it can add unwanted heat inside the fridge.
Our refrigeration services cover everything from interior lighting and switches to wiring, controls and other electrical faults associated with commercial refrigeration equipment.
Commercial Fridge Servicing and Preventive Maintenance
We recommend all our customers have their commercial refrigeration equipment serviced by us every six to twelve months. If you do this, our technicians can monitor which components are likely to need maintenance or repair to keep the system running efficiently at the required temperature.
Our scheduled commercial refrigeration service may include:
Clearing condensate drains
Listening for unusual noise
Checking airflow around stored products
