Your cold room is running but the temperature won't drop to set point.
Diagnose this faultCold Room Temperature Rising
Stored product temperature is climbing despite the plant appearing to run.

Refrigerant has escaped the system — the plant can no longer cool effectively.

Ice is building up on the evaporator because the defrost cycle isn't working.

Diagnose this faultElectrical Fault
A wiring, contactor, or control-circuit fault is preventing the plant from running correctly.
Diagnose this faultCold Room Tripping Power

Cape Town Coverage Zones
We target a 30–60 minute emergency response across seven Cape Town regions. Select your area for location-specific cold room repair:
Cape Town CBD
Central Region
The Cape Town CBD concentrates restaurants, hotels, pharmacies, and food retailers in dense, multi-storey buildings where rooftop plant rooms and tight service access demand experienced refrigeration technicians. REYDS navigates CBD loading bays, after-hours access, and high-rise rooftops to reach your cold room fast — day or night.
Northern Suburbs
Northern Region
The Northern Suburbs host major supermarkets, food processing plants, and distribution centres with large walk-in cold and freezer rooms. REYDS services the industrial parks of Bellville and Kraaifontein and the retail cold chains of Tygervalley and Durbanville with rapid 24/7 response.
Southern Suburbs
Southern Region
The Southern Suburbs mix busy restaurant districts, independent supermarkets, and medical facilities requiring reliable refrigeration. REYDS reaches Claremont's restaurant strips, Newlands' brewing and hospitality, and the medical cold chains of Rondebosch and Observatory within minutes, any hour of the day.
Atlantic Seaboard
Coastal Region
The Atlantic Seaboard's oceanfront restaurants and boutique hotels face salt-laden air that accelerates coil corrosion and condenser failure. REYDS protects coastal cold rooms with corrosion-resistant repairs and rapid response from Sea Point to Hout Bay, keeping premium hospitality cold chains running.
West Coast
Western Region
The West Coast's growing retail and hospitality sector, plus fishing and food-processing cold stores, depend on refrigeration that can handle heat, dust, and salt. REYDS covers Table View to Atlantis with rugged, dust-tolerant repairs and 24-hour availability for coastal and inland cold chains alike.
Cape Flats
Central-Eastern Region
The Cape Flats host wholesale food markets, community supermarkets, and the Philippi agricultural cold chain. REYDS supports local retailers, butcheries, and fresh-produce cold stores with affordable, fast, and reliable 24/7 repairs that keep community food supply cold and safe.
Helderberg
Eastern Region
The Helderberg region combines wine-estate hospitality, retail cold chains, and the Strand's fishing and food-processing sector. REYDS covers Somerset West to Gordon's Bay with refrigeration expertise tuned to coastal corrosion and the demands of winery and seafood cold storage, 24 hours a day.
