Why your Gram Commercial walk-in cooler is not cooling

The first things owners spot on a not cooling Gram Commercial walk-in cooler: 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

  • Dirty or blocked condenser coils
  • Failed compressor or start relay
  • Worn door gaskets bleeding cold air
  • Defrost fault icing over the evaporator

Known Gram Commercial walk-in cooler 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

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. Also, confirm the walk-in cooler has power, the thermostat is actually set cold, and the condenser coils or vents aren't blocked by dust or stored items. 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 Gram Commercial walk-in cooler 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. You approve a flat price up front, and the work is backed by our labour and parts warranty.

Two other shops couldn't fit us in — these guys fixed the Gram Commercial walk-in cooler the same day. Genuine Gram Commercial part, flat price, and done in a single visit.

The Gram Commercial walk-in cooler broke right before the weekend and they still came out same-day. You can tell they work on Gram Commercial all the time — quick, clean diagnosis.

Called about our Gram Commercial walk-in cooler in the morning and it was running again by evening. Stood behind the warranty and used a real Gram Commercial OEM part, not a knockoff.
