Common questions
How long should a KIC fridge last in Sandown?
With a clean condenser and a sound door seal, twelve to fifteen years is normal. Most callouts we attend are thermostats, start relays and perished seals rather than sealed system failures.
Do you charge a callout fee?
A standard callout and diagnostic fee applies and is quoted upfront. It is credited against the repair when you accept the quote.
Is a compressor replacement guaranteed?
Yes. Replacements are done with a system flush and new drier, and both part and workmanship are warranted, provided the original cause of failure is corrected.
How fast can you get to me?
Emergency callouts are dispatched to the next available technician, with the arrival window confirmed by SMS when the vehicle leaves.
