Expert Review
If your display fridge is running constantly but not getting cold, it could be a sign of a blockage in the refrigerant system. A fresh filter drier is often the first port of call for an engineer during a service. This isn't a DIY job, mind; it requires a qualified technician. They'll find this a quick part to swap out while servicing the system, getting your unit back to work fast.
Installation & Maintenance
- Use a certified refrigeration engineer for installation.
- Always disconnect the appliance from the mains power first.
- The system must be properly vacuumed after fitting.
- Always replace when the refrigerant system is opened.
