Why your True refrigerated prep table is compressor failure
When a True refrigerated prep table is compressor failure, here's what you'll usually notice: compressor clicks on then stops, or won't start. Often refrigerant or start relay related. The usual culprit is an overheated overload protector. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.
Most likely causes
- A contaminated sealed system
- Failed start relay or capacitor
- Refrigerant charge loss
- A seized compressor
Known True refrigerated prep table weak points
- condenser fan motor failure and dirty condenser coils causing high box temperatures
- door gasket wear and self-closing hinge cartridge failures on reach-ins
- evaporator coil icing and clogged/frozen condensate drain lines
- electronic temperature controller faults on newer Spec Series units
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
There's one thing worth checking before you book anyone: listen for a hum with no start, or a repeated clicking sound, and confirm the unit is actually getting power. Once you've ruled that out, confirming an actual seized compressor versus a tripped protector needs an amp reading, and swapping a compressor means recovering and recharging refrigerant safely, which takes an experienced technician.
