The Reyds Solution
We isolate the failure, recover refrigerant legally, flush the system if contamination is present, and install a correctly rated replacement compressor — then pressure-test, evacuate, and recharge to specification.
Industry context
Warehouses
A warehouse has little margin for a cold chain that drifts. Distribution cold storage holding palletised perishable stock. We plan the fix to end the risk, not just the symptom.
Cape Town coverage
Gardens · City Bowl
Our City Bowl technicians treat Gardens as core coverage rather than an outlying callout. From first call to cold cabinet, the Gardens leg of the job is the shortest part.
Prevention
Stop the fault returning
Replace door seals at the first sign of perishing to stop the warm-air ingress that drives many compressor failure callouts.
Book a service check ahead of peak trading so the display refrigerator under the heaviest load is not the one that fails.
Keep a documented escalation path for temperature alarms so compressor failure is answered in minutes, not noticed at close.
Schedule quarterly preventative maintenance on your display refrigerator to catch wear before it becomes compressor failure.
