Why your refrigerated display case is not cooling

Not cooling on a refrigerated display case usually announces itself like this: unit runs but temperature stays warm — usually a compressor, condenser, or refrigerant issue. The usual culprit is worn door gaskets bleeding cold air. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.

Most likely causes

  • Dirty or blocked condenser coils
  • A bad evaporator fan motor
  • Failed compressor or start relay
  • Refrigerant leak in the sealed system

Quick check — and when it's not DIY

One thing you can rule out on your own: confirm the refrigerated display case has power, the thermostat is actually set cold, and the condenser coils or vents aren't blocked by dust or stored items. If none of that changes anything, not-cooling that keeps recurring after the coils are clean usually means the sealed system has lost its charge, and recharging it needs recovery equipment and an experienced technician.

How we fix it

An experienced tech tests the refrigerated display case systematically and pinpoints what's actually causing the not cooling. Genuine OEM parts for all major refrigerated display case brands ride on the truck, so the fix usually happens the same day. You approve a flat price up front, and the work is backed by our labour and parts warranty.
