Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my compressor has failed?
Signs include no cooling with the contactor energised, tripped breakers, burnt windings on test, or abnormal noise and vibration. We test before condemning the unit.
Do you repair or replace compressors?
We repair where economical (valve plate, motor protection, electrical) and replace where the compressor is seized or burnt. We always identify the root cause to protect the new unit.
Can you replace a compressor the same day?
For common semi-hermetic and scroll models we hold and source stock rapidly across Gauteng. Same-day replacement depends on model availability, which we confirm on the call.
