Frequently Asked Questions

My controller shows a fault code — what does it mean?

Codes vary by manufacturer. We identify the code and its cause before recommending any action.

Could the controller be the problem, not the compressor?

Yes — and we test the controller first to avoid replacing a compressor that is actually fine.

Can you replace an old controller with a modern one?

Yes. We upgrade to current controllers with better defrost logic and alarm features.
