Why is my walk-in freezer icing up?

Excessive ice buildup is usually caused by a failed defrost timer, a bad defrost heater, a stuck defrost termination switch, or damaged door gaskets letting warm air in. Poor airflow from blocked evaporator fans can also cause icing. Our technicians diagnose the root cause on-site and carry common defrost components on every truck.

How often should a walk-in freezer be serviced?

Walk-in freezers should be professionally serviced every 6 months. This includes cleaning condenser coils, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting door gaskets, testing defrost systems, and verifying thermostat accuracy. Regular maintenance prevents costly breakdowns and keeps energy bills in check.

Can you repair the compressor on a walk-in freezer?

Yes. Our technicians repair and replace walk-in freezer compressors from all major manufacturers including Copeland, Bitzer, and Danfoss. Compressor issues often present as the unit running constantly without reaching temperature, or not starting at all. We carry common compressor models and can complete most replacements in a single visit.
