Why your walk-in freezer is compressor failure

Catching compressor failure early on a walk-in freezer is usually straightforward: compressor clicks on then stops, or won't start. Often refrigerant or start relay related. The usual culprit is a contaminated sealed system. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.

Most likely causes

  • Refrigerant charge loss
  • An electrical short in the windings
  • A seized compressor
  • A contaminated sealed system

Quick check — and when it's not DIY

Before you call anyone, check the breaker hasn't tripped and the unit's overload protector hasn't kicked out, since both can look like a dead compressor. Also, listen for a hum with no start, or a repeated clicking sound, and confirm the unit is actually getting power. Past that point, a failing compressor is a sealed, high-pressure, refrigerant-charged part, and replacing one requires an experienced technician and recovery equipment no homeowner has on hand.

How we fix it

We trace the compressor failure on your walk-in freezer to its source instead of throwing parts at it. Whatever the brand, we stock the parts that fail most on a walk-in freezer and fit them on the spot. Most compressor failure jobs finish same-day, at a flat price, under our warranty.

The walk-in freezer died mid-week and they had it sorted before I'd even rearranged my schedule. Genuine parts, done in one trip, and the invoice matched the quote.
