If you notice any of these issues, your walk-in cooler may need servicing:
- Inconsistent cooling – Food isn’t staying at the right temperature.
- Ice buildup – Frost forming on walls or coils.
- Unusual noises – Buzzing, clicking, or loud humming.
- Water leaks – Puddles or excessive condensation.
- Compressor failure – The unit is running, but not cooling properly.
First, check if the doors are fully closed and air vents are unobstructed. If the issue persists:
- Check the thermostat settings – Ensure it’s set to the correct temperature.
- Listen for unusual noises – A loud buzzing or clicking may indicate a failing compressor.
- Look for ice buildup – Frost-covered coils could mean restricted airflow.
If your cooler isn’t functioning correctly, call (847) 232-4770 for a professional inspection!
To keep your cooler running efficiently and reduce energy costs:
- Schedule regular maintenance – Prevent breakdowns and extend lifespan.
- Keep coils and fans clean – Dust and dirt buildup reduce performance.
- Avoid overloading shelves – Allow air to circulate freely inside.
- Ensure proper airflow – Keep vents clear of boxes or equipment.
Routine maintenance helps prevent costly repairs and keeps your cooler running efficiently. Our maintenance service includes:
- Checking refrigerant levels for proper cooling performance.
