Why your Perlick beer dispenser & draft system is compressor failure

On a Perlick beer dispenser & draft system, compressor failure usually announces itself like this: compressor clicks on then stops, or won't start. Often refrigerant or start relay related. On this platform it's most often failed start relay or capacitor.

Most likely causes

  • A contaminated sealed system
  • An overheated overload protector
  • Refrigerant charge loss
  • A seized compressor
  • Failed start relay or capacitor

Known Perlick beer dispenser & draft system weak points

  • condenser coils clogging with bar dust and lint
  • door gasket wear and hinge sag on reach-under boxes
  • beer faucet and shank seal leaks
  • glycol power-pack / circulation pump faults on remote systems

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. Past that point, 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.

OEM parts widely available through Perlick and bar-equipment distributors; sealed-system refrigerant repairs requires an experienced technician.

Two other shops couldn't fit us in — these guys fixed the Perlick beer dispenser & draft system the same day. Clean, on-time, and they took the old part with them. Would call again.

The Perlick beer dispenser & draft system broke right before the weekend and they still came out same-day. They clearly knew Perlick inside out and had the part on the truck.
