Turbo Air Freezer Repair in Philadelphia

A short orientation before Turbo Air freezer service: Turbo Air builds undercounter and reach-in freezers with automatic defrost and its self-cleaning condenser design.

Defrost heater or sensor, evaporator fan, door heater or gasket, and condenser fan account for most of the Turbo Air freezer work we do. What owners notice first is usually one of these: evaporator frosting over, rising freezer temperature, and ice on the door frame. Frost forming around the door opening suggests the door frame heater or gasket is letting humid air inside. Short cycling every few minutes can be a failing thermostat or an overheating compressor tripping its overload.

Defrost on these freezers is automatic, and when a sensor or heater fails, frost accumulates on the evaporator until cooling falls off. Heaters in the door frame keep condensation away, and frost appears around the door once they quit. In greasy, hot kitchens, condenser fans can give out.

Commercial freezers in hot, crowded kitchens suffer when the condenser is neglected, and a failing freezer can put a whole inventory at risk. A freezer visit checks the condenser fan, the start relay and the defrost system before the sealed system is discussed.

Even with the self-cleaning condenser, coils still need some manual cleaning, particularly in kitchens with a lot of grease. If the cause is the door heater or gasket, the part and the labor go into a written estimate first, and the finished job carries 90 days on parts and 30 on labor.

Inspect the lid or door gasket each season; a torn seal lets in moisture that ends up as frost. Have the model and serial ready when you call about defrost not working; it lets us check parts first.
