01 Identify the exact model

Brand, serial plate, controller type, fault code and site condition are checked before parts are discussed.

02 Diagnose the real system fault

We check power, airflow, sensors, relays, motors, pumps, heaters, refrigeration behaviour and mechanical load.

03 Quote the repair route clearly

You get a practical repair direction before unnecessary parts spend or deeper strip-down work.

Commercial refrigeration first

Cold-side faults diagnosed clearly.

A warm cabinet is not automatically a gas problem. Fixakitchen checks control logic, airflow, fans, probes, relays, evaporator condition and condenser breathing before parts are replaced.

Cold rooms and freezer rooms

Warm rooms, iced evaporators and fan motor faults

We check evaporator fans, condenser airflow, door sealing, probes, controllers, defrost behaviour, drains, compressor symptoms and refrigerant leak signs before deciding what needs repair.

Cold room repair route
Freeze and harvest cycles

Commercial ice machine repairs: Manitowoc, Hoshizaki and Scotsman

When your ice machine stops dropping cubes mid-service, it blocks your entire beverage or food prep operation. We provide expert on-site diagnostics for Manitowoc, Hoshizaki and Scotsman commercial ice makers, focusing on the electronic control systems that govern the freeze and harvest cycles.

  • Harvest cycle failures: stuck water inlet valves, hot gas solenoids and failed harvest switching.
  • Electronic sensor faults: faulty thickness probes, water level sensors and thermistors.
  • Airflow and fan blocks: seized condenser fan motors causing high-pressure trip-outs.
  • Controller programming: Dixell, Carel or manufacturer control board logic faults.

Line fridges

Under-counter and display fridge repairs

Poor airflow, ice accumulation and failing fan motors frequently cause temperature spikes in commercial line fridges. Our mobile diagnostics cover Infrico, Polar, Skope, SnoMaster, Staycold and similar cabinets, including Dixell and Carel controller faults.
