How is everyone? I hope you all survived this week unscathed? This weeks weather for most came as a shock, simply because it's been so mild up until now. When we think of chillers and coolers outside at this time of of year then due to the low ambient temperatures, generally they do have to work less hard than in the summer. It is therefore tempting to think that they don't need any attention during the winter. Actually, Chiller and cooler servicing is a vital year round activity. The cleaning of condensers, removal of leaves and debris, opening cabinets looking for signs of water ingress, ensuring all trace heating is functioning (if required) ensuring all pumps are functioning and changing over if on duty standby (no one wants an unplanned service intervention in the depths of winter) and these are just the basic things. Animals, rodents etc seeking refuge in nice warm spaces gnawing on cables and splitting hoses fractured wide open by frosts are commonplace, we see where there is little human attention, nature will literally bite. All of this and the technical stuff such as refrigerant and oil levels and low and high pressure checks all help to head off nasty surprises. Prevention is better than cure and routine service is definitely less costly than a plant stoppage. Ensure your plant is fit for winter - give us a call. 0121 663 6646 https://lnkd.in/eEcd3ZC5 www.TriSolve.co.uk #coolingoutsidethebox Take it easy on the roads, all the best Rob
