Our Process: Keeping Your Systems in Prime Condition
At Zeal Refrigeration Group, we follow a meticulous maintenance process to keep your refrigeration systems in prime condition:
- Initial Assessment & Power Down
Before starting any work, our team carries out a visual inspection and risk assessment of your refrigeration unit. We power down the system safely and remove contents (if required) to begin with a clean and clear workspace. - Deep Component Cleaning
Dust, grease, and debris can accumulate in key components over time, reducing system efficiency and increasing energy use. We perform a detailed cleaning of fan blades, drip trays, and filters. This prevents overheating, ice build-up, and moisture-related issues. - Electrical and Wiring Check
Faulty wiring, loose connections or failing capacitors are common causes of unexpected breakdowns. Our technicians test voltage levels, inspect contactors, relays, and control panels to identify early signs of electrical failure or fire risk. - Refrigerant Level & Leak Detection
Low refrigerant or undetected leaks can lead to poor cooling and compressor stress. We check pressure levels, top up refrigerant if necessary (in accordance with Australian standards), and perform leak detection using certified tools - Door Seals & Structural Inspection
A worn-out door seal or misaligned hinge can drastically affect temperature consistency and energy consumption. We inspect all gaskets, seals, hinges, and insulation panels to maintain the integrity of your cold space - Drain Line & Water Check
Blocked drain lines are a common cause of water leakage. We clear obstructions, sanitise the lines, and check water pumps where applicable to prevent future drainage issues - Compressor & Motor Function Test
The compressor is the heart of the system. We listen for unusual noises, measure amperage draw, check oil levels, and test the motor bearings and fan operation - Operational Checks
Once all servicing tasks are completed, we restart the system and monitor the temperature stability, defrost cycle, air circulation, and overall response time. We also recalibrate thermostats and digital controllers to ensure they reflect accurate readings.
