| R404A | HFC blend (near-azeotropic) | 40-60 kPa (approx. 2-4 bar) | 1500-1900 kPa | Older commercial ice machines, cube makers, ice bins and blast chillers |
| R448A | HFO/HFC blend (low GWP) | 50-75 kPa | 1600-2000 kPa | Modern commercial ice machines, cube and flake units, coldroom retrofits |
Common questions
Can a built-in Sub-Zero be repaired without removing the joinery in Halfway House?
In most cases yes. The units are designed to be serviced from the front through the grille and toe panel; full de-racking is only needed for sealed system work.
Can you work after trading hours?
Yes. Retail, restaurant and office work is routinely scheduled at night or early morning under a permit-to-work so trading is not interrupted.
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.
My ice machine runs but makes no ice, is it worth repairing?
Usually yes. The four common causes (water inlet valve, water pump, scaled evaporator and a stalled harvest cycle) are all repairable at a fraction of replacement cost. We quote in writing after the diagnostic and tell you honestly when a machine is past economic repair.
