Industry context
Catering Companies
Downtime in catering companies is measured in lost trading hours, not just parts. Off-site and event catering with mobile and static cold holding. That context decides how urgently we treat refrigerant leak.
Cape Town coverage
Kenilworth · Southern Suburbs
Our Southern Suburbs technicians treat Kenilworth as core coverage rather than an outlying callout. Fast access matters most in Kenilworth, and our coverage is built around it.
Prevention
Stop the fault returning
Monitor cabinet temperatures daily and log deviations so refrigerant leak is flagged before stock is lost.
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 freezer 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.
