Keep Your Perishable Items Cool
Refrigeration systems play an essential role in keeping food, stock and other temperature-sensitive items in controlled conditions that remain steady throughout daily use. At Gilmour Air & Electrical, we install refrigeration systems that maintain accurate temperatures, handle regular door openings and support the way each household or business manages its storage.
Each installation is planned around storage volume, layout and the cooling load created by restocking or varying ambient conditions, ensuring the system can recover temperature quickly and consistently. Our maintenance services keep coils, fans and sensors working reliably so cooling performance stays stable and energy use remains manageable. We also upgrade older systems to improve efficiency, stability and long-term dependability, integrating electrical or switchboard work when required.

End-to-End Refrigeration Services
Our refrigeration services in Parkes include:
- Refrigeration System Installation: We install systems sized and configured for the required temperature range, stock turnover and access patterns, ensuring cooling stays consistent even during busy periods.
- Scheduled Servicing & Maintenance: Our servicing covers coil cleaning, seal checks, fan assessments and temperature calibration to keep the system performing accurately through seasonal changes.
- Repairs & Diagnostics: When temperature drift, unusual cycling or slower cooling appears, we run detailed diagnostics to locate the issue and restore stable operation before stock is affected.
- System Upgrades & Replacements: Older units can lose efficiency over time. We upgrade components to improve cooling accuracy, reduce energy use and support better long-term performance.
Common Refrigeration Issues
Refrigeration units can develop a range of issues over time, often linked to usage patterns, ambient conditions or component wear.
- Inconsistent Temperatures: Fluctuations often occur when airflow is blocked, sensors drift or warm air enters frequently. These changes affect product stability. We assess the cause and restore even cooling.
- Ice Build-Up on Coils: Ice formation usually signals airflow restrictions or defrost issues, reducing cooling efficiency. We remove the buildup and correct the underlying fault for proper performance.
- Constant System Running: Continuous operation may indicate dirty coils, limited ventilation or worn components. This increases energy use and adds mechanical strain. We diagnose the cause and reset the system for efficient cycling.
- Unusual Noises or Vibrations: Humming, tapping or vibrating can point to loose fittings or fan wear. These noises can worsen over time. We identify the source and complete repairs to protect the system.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my refrigeration unit cool unevenly?
Temperature differences between shelves often occur when air movement is restricted or vents are partially blocked. Overstacking can also limit circulation. Rearranging stock and ensuring vents remain clear helps the system cool more evenly.
Can lighting inside a refrigeration unit affect temperature?
Yes—older or poorly positioned lighting can add small amounts of heat that influence internal temperatures. Modern LED lighting produces much less heat. If temperature drift is linked to lighting, we can reposition or replace components to reduce impact.
Why does my refrigeration unit struggle more on very hot days?
High ambient temperatures force the system to work harder to remove heat from the cabinet. This can extend cycle times or reduce cooling efficiency. Seasonal servicing helps the unit adjust and maintain stable temperatures during hot periods.
