When your freezer needs attention
- 1
The freezer is not freezing hard
Products feel soft or partly thawed even though the freezer is running. The cause may be the thermostat, the compressor, the refrigerant charge or the temperature sensor circuit. A site diagnosis tells you which one needs fixing.
- 2
Ice building up and not defrosting
A thick ice layer on the freezer wall or evaporator points to a fault in the defrost cycle, whether in the defrost heater, timer or sensor. Left alone, the build-up strains the compressor and steadily raises electricity use.
- 3
A door that will not seal or a unit that keeps alarming
A worn door gasket lets warm humid air in constantly, building ice and pressing the compressor harder. We check the gasket, the door frame and the alarm switch to find the cause of repeated alarms and put it right.
Who it's for
Your home freezer has stopped freezing hard
We diagnose the fault at your home, whether in the compressor, thermostat or door gasket, and advise you on keeping the contents safe while we work.
Ask on WhatsAppYour shop freezer is alarming and stock is at risk
We check the defrost cycle, door gasket and compressor at your shop, and give practical guidance on protecting frozen stock throughout the repair.

What sets this district apart
Al Bashaer is a relatively modern east Jeddah district with newer residential buildings and a growing number of restaurants, small hotels and food-service outlets, with open spaces and modern construction allowing larger, more complex cooling units. Restaurants here run large freezers all day, and moderate humidity plus cooking steam from stoves and kitchens increase cooling load, so regular checks of coils and compressor prevent sudden failures that stop service.
Al Bashaer lies in east Jeddah, a modern residential district with growing food-service and small-hotel development.
Al Bashaer restaurants and hotels typically use large horizontal freezers or dual-temperature units of 800 litres and above with powerful separate compressors.
The AC setup in Al Bashaer
- 1
Large horizontal freezer unit
Al Bashaer restaurants and hotels use horizontal freezers of 800 litres and above with very low temperature settings.
- 2
Dual-temperature refrigeration unit
Larger restaurants use combined units with separate chilled and frozen sections, running either two compressors or an advanced single system.
- 3
Powerful compressor on roof or in plant room
Compressors here are powerful, often mounted on the roof or in a separate air-cooled plant room due to heavy load.

FAQ
Questions about Freezer maintenance
Can the freezer be repaired without emptying it completely?
It depends on the fault. Checks on the compressor or an external sensor can be done without touching the contents. Repairs to the evaporator or defrost heater need the freezer emptied, and we tell you in advance and advise how to keep the stock in cool boxes while we work.
Why does my freezer compressor never stop running?
Three common causes: a worn door gasket letting warm air in, ice build-up on the evaporator reducing heat transfer, or low refrigerant. The technician checks all three during the visit and identifies the real cause before any repair.
Why does heavy frost keep building up inside my freezer even though the door closes properly?
The most common cause is a fault in the automatic defrost circuit, whether in the heater element, the timer or the temperature sensor. When this circuit fails, ice accumulates on the evaporator coil until airflow is blocked, cooling weakens and energy use rises. The technician identifies the exact cause by testing each component of the circuit in turn.
Do you service both chest and upright freezers?
Yes, we service both types in homes and shops. Chest and upright freezers share many components such as the compressor, evaporator and thermostat, but the defrost cycle design and coil position differ between them, and our technicians are trained to handle that difference in every case.
Does the freezer type, chest or upright, change how the repair is done?
Yes, in some steps. A chest freezer has the evaporator wrapped around the inner walls, while an upright has it at the back of the compartment with a fan. The position of the defrost heater and how to reach it differ between the two, so the technician needs to know the type before the visit to bring the right tools.
My hotel kitchen is large with cooking steam near the freezer, does vapour harm the compressor?
Yes, hot steam and moisture from the kitchen enter the coils and pipes and increase compressor load. We inspect pipes and joints, ensure adequate ventilation around the compressor, and clean coils of buildup.
My freezer is large and runs all the time, how often per year should it be checked?
For large freezers in restaurants and hotels, we recommend a check-up every two months: inspecting compressor, pipes and coils. Heavy use requires more frequent maintenance than light use.
My compressor is on the roof in hot sun, how do I protect it from excess heat?
We inspect the compressor and pipes and suggest adding a shade structure or sunscreen, or improving ventilation around the unit. Excess heat on the compressor raises power use and may shorten its life.
If my freezer fails at night when I am closed, how long does the food inside last?
If the door stays shut, frozen food may last several hours, but thaw speed depends on surrounding temperature. Call us right away and keep the door closed. We attend emergencies at certain times depending on the situation.
