Why it matters

Planned maintenance saves you money, stock and stress

A refrigeration breakdown in a commercial kitchen, café or retail store is not just a repair bill — it is lost stock, lost revenue, frustrated staff and unhappy customers. A failed coolroom can cost thousands in spoiled product in a matter of hours. An air conditioning breakdown in summer can empty a dining room or make a retail space unbearable.

Preventative maintenance catches small problems before they become big ones. A worn compressor contactor, a slow gas leak, a blocked condenser coil, a faulty defrost timer — these issues are easy to spot on a routine service but expensive and disruptive when they cause a full breakdown on a Friday night.

We schedule each visit at a time that works for your business — quiet periods, closed days, between shifts or after hours. No disruption to your customers or your team. Just peace of mind that your equipment is running as it should.

Benefits of Preventative Maintenance

Regular commercial refrigeration and air conditioning servicing delivers real returns for your business — not just fewer breakdowns.

Reduce costly breakdowns

Catch worn parts, low gas, faulty controls and dirty coils before they cause a failure. Planned servicing dramatically reduces the chance of unexpected breakdowns during peak trading hours.

Lower energy bills

Dirty coils, worn fan motors, failing compressors and gassed-up systems all consume more power. Regular preventative maintenance keeps your equipment running efficiently, reducing your electricity costs.

Protect your stock

Consistent operating temperatures keep your produce, chilled goods, dairy, meat and beverages at the correct temp. Preventative maintenance helps avoid temperature fluctuations and stock loss.

Extend equipment life

A well-maintained compressors runs cooler, lubricated fans last longer and sealed systems stay tight. Regular commercial refrigeration servicing adds years to the working life of your equipment.

Priority breakdown response

Maintenance plan customers get priority call-out for breakdowns. If something does go wrong between services, we get to you faster — because we already know your system and your site.

Planned scheduling

We work around your business. Services are scheduled at your convenience — during quiet periods, closed days, between shifts or after hours. No disruption to trade, no last-minute surprises.

What's Included in a Maintenance Plan

Every plan is tailored to your equipment, your business and your budget. Here is what a typical preventative maintenance service covers.

Typical Preventative Maintenance Checklist

Condenser coil cleaning — removes built-up dust and debris that reduces efficiency
Evaporator coil and drain inspection — check for ice build-up, blockages and drain pans
Compressor performance check — running currents, winding resistance, vibration and noise
Refrigerant gas pressure check — identify slow leaks before they cause a breakdown
Fan motor and blade inspection — check bearings, airflow, balance and mounting
Electrical connections and controls — tighten terminals, check contactors and safeties
Door seals and gaskets — check for tears, gaps and poor closure causing temp loss
Thermostat and temperature controller calibration and accuracy check

Additional items can be added to your plan — ice machine cleaning, ducted AC filter changes, humidity control checks and more.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer preventative maintenance?
Yes, absolutely. Wallaby Refrigeration offers tailored preventative maintenance programs for commercial refrigeration and air conditioning systems across Fremantle and Perth. A planned maintenance schedule reduces the risk of unexpected breakdowns, protects your stock from temperature-related spoilage, extends the working life of your equipment and keeps your energy consumption in check. We tailor the frequency and scope of each visit to your specific equipment and business needs.
How often should commercial refrigeration be serviced?
For most commercial refrigeration equipment — coolrooms, freezers, display fridges, prep fridges — we recommend servicing every 3 to 6 months depending on usage, environment and the age of the equipment. Kitchens and hospitality venues with heavy use and hot, greasy conditions benefit from quarterly servicing. Lower-usage environments like retail bottle shops or offices may be fine with 6-monthly visits. We can assess your setup and recommend a schedule that makes sense for your business.
Can maintenance be scheduled outside business hours?
Yes. We understand that refrigerators and freezers are full of stock during trading hours and you cannot always shut down equipment in the middle of a service. We routinely schedule preventative maintenance outside business hours — early mornings, late afternoons, closed days, quiet periods between shifts or on weekends by arrangement. The aim is to minimise disruption to your business while making sure your equipment is properly inspected and serviced.
Does preventative maintenance cover both refrigeration and air conditioning?
Yes, Wallaby Refrigeration covers both commercial refrigeration and commercial air conditioning in our preventative maintenance programs. We service coolrooms, freezer rooms, display fridges, underbench fridges, prep fridges, bottle shop coolers, ice machines, split-system air conditioners, ducted AC units, rooftop packages and commercial ventilation. If it keeps your business cool — whether for stock storage or staff and customer comfort — we can include it in your plan.
