Floral Cooler Refrigeration Repair in Chicago, Illinois

Floral Cooler Repair & Condenser Replacement on Chicago’s Near West Side

Citywide Supply & Service recently completed a floral cooler refrigeration repair for a commercial client at 2000 West Carroll Avenue, Chicago, Illinois 60612, in the Near West Side neighborhood. The customer had reported rising temperatures and unstable cooling performance—common signs of refrigerant loss or compressor distress.

During our diagnostic inspection, we confirmed that the floral cooler was low on refrigerant, which can quickly compromise temperature consistency and damage perishable floral products.

Citywide Supply & Service has an outstanding online reputation and is trusted by Chicago businesses for reliable, code-compliant commercial refrigeration repairs.

System Inspection Revealed Multiple Leaks

Floral coolers rely heavily on stable refrigerant pressure and clean airflow to maintain the specific temperature and humidity balance flowers require.

Our in-depth inspection revealed multiple leaks throughout critical components of the condenser system, including:

  • Leak at the compressor
  • Leak at the tube sheet
  • Leak at the liquid receiver
  • Leaks throughout the copper fins

The extent of these leaks confirmed that the system could no longer maintain proper pressures or cooling capacity.

Compressor Failure Was Imminent

To assess the health of the existing compressor, our technicians used a hermetic analyzer, which indicated an imminent compressor failure. Continuing to operate the system in this condition would risk:

  • Sudden cooling loss
  • Product damage
  • Costly operational downtime
  • Full system failure

Given the age of the condenser and the severity of the leaks, repair was neither reliable nor cost-effective.

Installation of a New Heatcraft Condenser

Citywide Supply & Service recommended replacing the failing system with a new Heatcraft condenser, a dependable and industry-preferred choice for commercial and floral refrigeration environments.

The new condenser provides:

  • Improved temperature stability
  • Enhanced energy efficiency
  • Reliable long-term performance
  • Reduced risk of downtime
  • Lower operational costs
  • Quieter and smoother operation

Once installed, the system was evacuated, charged, and tested to ensure proper operation and compliance with manufacturer specifications.

Restoring Reliable Floral Cooling

Following the installation of the new Heatcraft condenser, the floral cooler returned to:

  • Stable suction and head pressures
  • Consistent and precise cooling
  • Proper refrigerant flow
  • Improved reliability and efficiency

For floral businesses, consistent refrigeration is essential to preserving product quality and extending shelf life—making this upgrade critical to the customer’s day-to-day operations.
