Possible Causes

Diagnosed on site by our technicians

  • C01

    Dirty or bent condenser fins blocking heat rejection

  • C02

    Condenser fan motor failure

  • C03

    Restricted airflow from poor placement

  • C04

    Refrigerant overcharge raising head pressure

The Reyds Solution

We clean and straighten condenser fins, test and replace a failed fan motor, restore airflow clearance, and correct the charge — bringing head pressure back into the safe operating range.

Industry context

Butcheries

A butchery has little margin for a cold chain that drifts. Meat-critical cold storage where temperature drift means loss and risk. Reyds shapes the repair around how your sector actually uses the equipment.

Prevention

Stop the fault returning

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

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

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

  • Schedule quarterly preventative maintenance on your freezer room to catch wear before it becomes condenser fault.
