Commercial heat pump repair at one of Brisbane's State Schools
The unit wasn’t reaching temperature, so we carried out fault finding on the refrigeration system to determine what was going on.
We found one of the pipework clips had come loose, allowing the copper pipe to rub against the unit. Over time, it had worn through the copper and caused the system to lose its refrigerant charge.
The leak was located and repaired, additional oil was added as required, and the system was recharged and returned to operation.
Really enjoyed this repair. While air conditioning is a big part of what we do at Abreeze, we also specialise in the refrigeration side of commercial HVAC equipment, including fault finding, leak detection and repairs.
And for once, everything was actually easy to get to! Wish every unit was this accessible...
Always good to find the actual cause of the problem, repair it properly and keep the equipment running.
