Why your True refrigerated prep table is not cooling

Catching not cooling early on a True refrigerated prep table is usually straightforward: unit runs but temperature stays warm — usually a compressor, condenser, or refrigerant issue. Nine times out of ten it comes down to dirty or blocked condenser coils. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.

Most likely causes

  • Failed compressor or start relay
  • Refrigerant leak in the sealed system
  • A stuck or failed damper control
  • Faulty temperature control board
  • Worn door gaskets bleeding cold air

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

Start here — it costs nothing and rules out the easy cause: listen for the compressor running at all, and make sure nothing is blocking airflow around the back or bottom vents. Beyond that, 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.

How we fix it

We trace the not cooling on your True refrigerated prep table to its source instead of throwing parts at it. OEM True parts are widely stocked through foodservice distributors; sealed-system/refrigerant repairs require an experienced technician. The quote is flat, approved before we start, and every repair carries our warranty.

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