While you wait
Holding actions that save stock
These four steps buy real time and often reduce the final loss more than the repair itself does.
Keep it closed
A full, closed freezer holds safe temperature for hours. Every door opening costs you time.
Leave the power on
Do not switch off at the wall unless there is water ingress or a burning smell.
Record the temperature
Note the reading now and again in 30 minutes. The rate of rise tells us how urgent this is.
Clear access
Give us access to the rear or plant side of the unit and the distribution board.
Why failures spike in Mitchells Plain
Open, wind-exposed flats. South-easter driven sand loading blocks condenser coils faster here than almost anywhere else in the Metro.
- Sand and dust fouling on outdoor condenser fins, causing high head pressure and tripping compressors on hot days.
- Voltage dips and load-shedding restarts damaging single-phase compressors without hard-start or surge protection.
- Undersized split units fitted to west-facing living rooms that never reach setpoint after 14:00.
