The Reyds Solution
Our technician arrives with manifold gauges and a leak detector, diagnoses the root cause on site, and restores cooling fast — recharging refrigerant, clearing the condenser, or replacing a failed compressor with a unit matched to your cabinet.
Industry context
Butcheries
Butcheries depend on predictable temperatures for product quality and compliance. Meat-critical cold storage where temperature drift means loss and risk. That context decides how urgently we treat not cooling.

Prevention
Stop the fault returning
Keep condenser fins clean and airflow clear — the leading preventable cause of not cooling in butcheries cold chains.
Monitor cabinet temperatures daily and log deviations so not cooling is flagged before stock is lost.
Replace door seals at the first sign of perishing to stop the warm-air ingress that drives many not cooling callouts.
Book a service check ahead of peak trading so the display refrigerator under the heaviest load is not the one that fails.
