Our Walk-In Fridge / Cold Room Repair Services
Cold Room Diagnostics & Fault Finding
We begin every job with a detailed inspection to identify the exact cause of your cold room issue. Using professional diagnostic tools, we assess temperature performance, control systems, airflow, refrigeration components, and electrical operation. This ensures we fix the root problem, not just the symptoms.
Refrigeration System Repairs & Component Replacement
We repair or replace critical refrigeration parts including compressors, condensers, evaporators, expansion valves, suction filters, defrost elements, fans and refrigerant lines. We also address gas leaks and recharge refrigerant to manufacturer specifications.
Insulation, Doors & Seal Repairs
Cold room efficiency depends on tight seals and effective insulation. We fix worn or broken door seals, realign misaligned doors, replace damaged panels, repair threshold and floor insulation issues, and address structural gaps that cause temperature loss.
Control Panel & Electrical Repairs
Faulty control panels, wiring, sensors, alarm systems, and safety switches can disrupt cold room performance. Our team accurately diagnoses electrical and control issues and repairs or replaces defective components to ensure safe, stable operation.
Emergency Cold Room Repairs
Breakdowns don’t wait for business hours and neither do we. Glotech Appliance offers emergency repair services to address critical failures quickly, reduce product spoilage risk, and get your cold room running again as soon as possible.
Preventative Cold Room Maintenance
Regular maintenance extends the life of your cold room and prevents avoidable failures. We offer scheduled maintenance plans that include cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting seals and insulation, testing electrical components and verifying correct temperature performance.
Common Walk-In Fridge Problems We Repair
Cold rooms that fail to maintain the correct temperature often suffer from compressor issues, gas leaks, faulty thermostats, or airflow problems. We diagnose the root cause and restore consistent, reliable cooling to protect your stock.
Problems such as compressor breakdowns, condenser or evaporator faults, fan motor failures, and refrigerant leaks can stop a cold room from operating efficiently. Our technicians repair or replace failed components to restore full system performance.
Insulation, Door & Structural Issues
Damaged panels, worn door seals, misaligned doors, or floor insulation failures cause temperature loss and increased energy consumption. We repair cold room doors, seals, panels, and floors to improve efficiency and prevent product loss.
Electrical & Control Problems
Cold room failures are often caused by faulty control panels, sensors, wiring, or alarm systems. We troubleshoot electrical and control issues accurately, ensuring your cold room runs safely and maintains correct operating conditions.
