Dirty Coils Waste Energy
A layer of dirt only 0.04" thick on condenser coils can cause a 21% drop in cooling efficiency and increase energy use by up to 35%. Regular coil cleaning saves energy and lowers operating costs.

Did You Know?
Overstocking Reduces Cooling
Cramming too much product or blocking vents in a cooler prevents air circulation, leading to uneven cooling and frost build-up. Organize shelves and avoid overloading to keep temperatures consistent.
Preventative Maintenance Pays Off
Urgent, unplanned refrigeration repairs often cost far more than routine maintenance, once you factor in emergency service fees, rush parts, and downtime losses. Investing in regular check-ups can catch issues early and save money long-term.
Costly Downtime
A full-store refrigeration failure can easily exceed $10,000 in lost product sales – not to mention potential fines and customer dissatisfaction. Even a single cooler can hold hundreds of dollars in inventory at risk.

Signs Your Refrigeration System Needs Service
Even before a breakdown, your equipment may show warning signs. Catch issues early by watching for these common symptoms:
⚠️
Excess frost or ice buildup
On coils, walls, or products. This indicates poor airflow or a defrost system issue.
⚠️
Inconsistent temperatures
Notable warm spots inside the unit suggest compressor problems or blocked airflow.
⚠️
Strange or loud noises
Coming from compressors or fans may indicate worn components or mechanical issues.
⚠️
Rising energy bills
Without other explanation often means the system is working harder than it should.
⚠️
Food spoiling or drinks not cold
If products aren't staying at proper temperatures, immediate service is needed.
Avoid Downtime – Schedule a Checkup
If you notice any of these signs, let us inspect and tune-up your system before it fails.
