Prevention

Stop the fault returning

  • Replace door seals at the first sign of perishing to stop the warm-air ingress that drives many refrigerant leak callouts.

  • Book a service check ahead of peak trading so the cold room under the heaviest load is not the one that fails.

  • Keep a documented escalation path for temperature alarms so refrigerant leak is answered in minutes, not noticed at close.

  • Schedule quarterly preventative maintenance on your cold room to catch wear before it becomes refrigerant leak.
