Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

ColdTec Cooling Service values honesty and reliability in every project. Below, we’ve answered some of the most frequently asked questions about our cold room and refrigeration services to help you choose the right solutions with confidence.

Industrial Refrigeration Services
Decades of combined experience in cold room design, installation, and maintenance.
Every project is customized to meet your exact temperature and storage requirements.
We use the latest cooling technology to help you save energy and reduce operational costs.
1. What does an industrial refrigeration system actually do?
Industrial refrigeration systems remove heat from large spaces, equipment and storage areas to maintain the temperatures required for different products and processes.
2. Why are PIR panels essential for cold storage?
PIR panels provide strong thermal insulation and help create an airtight barrier around a cold room. This can reduce heat transfer and help refrigeration equipment maintain the required temperature.
3. How often should a large cold room be professionally serviced?
Regular professional servicing helps identify refrigerant leaks, worn components, airflow problems and other faults before they cause unexpected downtime. ColdTec maintenance contracts include four scheduled visits per year.
4. What should a business do if a walk-in freezer stops cooling?
Contact ColdTec's emergency team as soon as possible. Keeping the freezer doors closed and moving vulnerable stock to suitable backup storage can help limit losses while assistance is arranged.
5. How do rapid-roll doors protect warehouse cold stores?
They open and close in seconds as forklifts pass through, helping maintain stable temperatures while reducing ice formation and energy loss.
6. Are ColdTec engineers legally certified to handle refrigerants?
Yes. ColdTec engineers hold F-Gas certification required for the safe handling, recovery and charging of refrigerant gases under UK requirements.
