Why your back bar cooler is not cooling

Here's how not cooling typically presents on a back bar cooler: unit runs but temperature stays warm — usually a compressor, condenser, or refrigerant issue. The usual culprit is a stuck or failed damper control. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.

Most likely causes

  • Defrost fault icing over the evaporator
  • Faulty temperature control board
  • Failed compressor or start relay
  • Dirty or blocked condenser coils
  • A stuck or failed damper control

Quick check — and when it's not DIY

The one self-check that's actually worth your time: listen for the compressor running at all, and make sure nothing is blocking airflow around the back or bottom vents. Also, confirm the back bar cooler has power, the thermostat is actually set cold, and the condenser coils or vents aren't blocked by dust or stored items. Past that point, the cause is almost always a failed compressor or a refrigerant leak in the sealed system, and handling refrigerant legally requires an experienced technician — which is where DIY stops.

Called late at night and a tech was here by mid-morning to look at the back bar cooler. Flat price agreed up front, and they stood behind the labour warranty.

Two other shops couldn't fit us in — these guys fixed the back bar cooler the same day. Fair price, no surprise fees, and the back bar cooler has worked perfectly since.

Our back bar cooler quit on us and they had a technician out the same afternoon in Palm Valley. Clean, on-time, and they took the old part with them. Would call again.
