Refrigeration system icing up
Is your commercial refrigeration unit developing excessive ice? This common problem indicates an underlying fault. We provide expert diagnosis and repairs to restore efficiency across London, Surrey, Kent, and the M25.
Refrigeration system icing up
An icing-up refrigeration system is a clear sign that something is amiss, often leading to reduced cooling performance, increased energy consumption, and potential equipment damage. You might observe thick ice on the evaporator coils, fan blades, or even product within the unit. Catching this early can prevent extensive food spoilage or the need for more complex, costly repairs down the line.
Our engineers will meticulously investigate the cause, which could range from a faulty defrost heater or timer to a blocked drain line, or even low refrigerant levels. They'll assess fan operation, thermostat accuracy, door seals, and refrigerant pressures to pinpoint the exact issue. A thorough diagnosis is essential for an effective, long-lasting fix.
