On-Site & Workshop Repair Services
We offer both options — you choose what works for you.
On-Site Repair (We Come to You)
Most fridge repairs can be done right at your home or office in Lenana. Our technician arrives with tools and common spare parts, does the diagnosis, and fixes the problem on the spot — no need to move anything.
Best for: Gas refills, thermostat replacements, fan motor swaps, door seal fitting, general servicing.
Workshop Repair
For more complex problems (like compressor replacement or PCB board repair), we can carry your fridge to our workshop for a more thorough fix, then deliver it back.
Best for: Major electrical faults, compressor overhauls, inverter board issues.
Either way — we keep you updated throughout.
Tips to Prevent Fridge Problems
A little care goes a long way. Here are simple habits that keep your fridge running longer:
- Don’t overload it — overfilling blocks airflow and makes the compressor work harder
- Clean the coils — dusty condenser coils reduce cooling efficiency; wipe them every 3 months
- Check the door seal — a loose gasket lets cold air escape; replace it when worn
- Let hot food cool first — putting steaming food inside raises internal temperature and strains the compressor
- Keep it away from heat sources — avoid placing your fridge near a cooker or in direct sunlight
- Defrost regularly — if your fridge isn’t frost-free, defrost it before ice builds up more than 1 cm thick
- Don’t leave the door open — brief, intentional access reduces temperature fluctuations
- Service it annually — a yearly check-up catches small issues before they become expensive
