Chillers


Large commercial and industrial operations depend on chillers that deliver stable performance under continuous load. Systems range from air‑cooled to water‑cooled designs and use a variety of compressor technologies (scroll, centrifugal, reciprocating, screw, and high‑efficiency Turbocor) each with its own operating characteristics, maintenance needs, and performance considerations.
Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) is essential for keeping these systems stable, efficient, and predictable. As part of this, we offer detailed oil analysis to monitor compressor health. Tracking acidity, moisture content, metal particles, and refrigerant dilution provides early warning of wear or contamination, helping extend compressor life and avoid costly failures.
We also support glycol‑based systems, including concentration checks, system cleaning, and the supply of new glycol. Maintaining the correct mix is critical for freeze protection, corrosion control, and efficient heat transfer, especially in process cooling and low‑temperature applications.
"Early diagnostics that protect compressor health"
Thermal imaging forms another part of our maintenance approach. By scanning mechanical and electrical components under load, we can identify hotspots, loose connections, restricted flow, and failing parts without physical contact. This speeds up diagnostics, improves safety, and highlights issues long before they become disruptive. Early detection of electrical imbalance, poor motor connections, or abnormal heat patterns also helps protect the compressor by preventing conditions that lead to overload, inefficiency, or premature failure.


"Servicing that improves efficiency and protects components"


Servicing the water circuit is equally important for water‑cooled chillers. Tube cleaning of shell‑and‑tube condensers restores heat‑transfer efficiency and reduces energy consumption by removing scale, biofilm, and debris. Checking pump performance, verifying flow rates, and confirming correct operation across the circuit ensures the chiller is receiving the water volume it was designed for. Proper flow protects the compressor, stabilises operating pressures, and prevents high‑condensing conditions that shorten component life.
Our service is built around keeping chiller systems running smoothly, protecting key components, and supporting the operational demands of commercial buildings, industrial processes, and temperature‑critical environments.
"Non-contact thermal imaging finds faults quickly and safely"
We work across a wide range of chiller manufacturers, including Carrier, Trane, York, Climaveneta, Daikin etc. Familiarity with the design differences, control strategies, and service requirements of these units allows us to maintain, diagnose, and support them effectively as part of ongoing PPM or reactive work. This experience helps ensure that each system is serviced in line with its specific operating characteristics, protecting performance and extending the life of key components.
