Why your Gram Commercial commercial refrigerator is compressor failure

A Gram Commercial commercial refrigerator 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. Nine times out of ten it comes down to a contaminated sealed system. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.

Most likely causes

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

Known Gram Commercial commercial refrigerator weak points

  • door gasket wear causing temperature rise and condensation
  • evaporator icing from failed defrost cycles or worn seals
  • condenser fan and compressor faults on reach-in cabinets
  • electronic controller and temperature-sensor faults

Quick check — and when it's not DIY

One thing you can rule out on your own: listen for a hum with no start, or a repeated clicking sound, and confirm the unit is actually getting power. Also, check the breaker hasn't tripped and the unit's overload protector hasn't kicked out, since both can look like a dead compressor. If it's still acting up after that, 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.

How we fix it

We trace the compressor failure on your Gram Commercial commercial refrigerator to its source instead of throwing parts at it. OEM parts are sourced through Hoshizaki/Gram distributors and can have longer lead times as an imported brand; sealed-system refrigerant repairs requires an experienced technician. Most compressor failure jobs finish same-day, at a flat price, under our warranty.
