Why your Glastender back bar cooler is compressor failure

A Glastender back bar cooler that is compressor failure tends to show the same signs: compressor clicks on then stops, or won't start. Often refrigerant or start relay related. The usual culprit is an electrical short in the windings. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.

Most likely causes

  • Refrigerant charge loss
  • An overheated overload protector
  • An electrical short in the windings
  • Failed start relay or capacitor
  • A seized compressor

Known Glastender back bar cooler weak points

  • glasswasher wash/rinse pump motor failures
  • spray jets clogging and scaling from hard water
  • drain and fill valve faults on glasswashers
  • back-bar condenser clogging causing warm coolers

Quick check — and when it's not DIY

One thing you can rule out on your own: 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. Once you've ruled that out, 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.

OEM parts available direct from Glastender and foodservice distributors; sealed-system refrigerant repairs requires an experienced technician.

Called about our Glastender back bar cooler in the morning and it was running again by evening. Clean, on-time, and they took the old part with them. Would call again.

Called late at night and a tech was here by mid-morning to look at the Glastender back bar cooler. They clearly knew Glastender inside out and had the part on the truck.

Two other shops couldn't fit us in — these guys fixed the Glastender back bar cooler the same day. Flat price agreed up front, and they stood behind the labour warranty.
