Recent: Sub Zero at Hamilton Terrace


Recently we repaired Sub Zero fridge at Hamilton Terrace in London. Most of the calls we receive these days are about faulty air conditioners and fridges. The heatwave in Europe and the UK affect these appliances the most, as the temperature in the flats goes over 28-30 degrees. For the fridges, you either have to cool down the room temperature using the air con or if you do not have an air con then the only thing you can do is to keep as much space inside the fridge as possible.

Another thing we suggest is to keep some space between the fridge and the wall it is attached too.

In case if your fridge is already faulty then do not hesitate contacting a professional engineering company like us.

Why Is My Sub-Zero Fridge Not Cooling Properly?

Why Is My Sub-Zero Fridge Not Cooling Properly?


If your Sub-Zero is not cooling properly, it can be just simple basics that are easy to fix or cases of deeper severity that require professional attention and, often, Sub-Zero repairs.

Simple and easy to fix basics

Incorrect temperature settings

Often insufficient cooling is just a result of improper temperature settings, which was unintentionally adjusted to the higher temperature. So, check the temperature settings are those you need and adjust them if necessary. The recommended temperature settings are 3–4 °C for a fridge section and -18°C for a freezer section.
​

After temperature adjustment, wait 24 hours for your Sub-Zero to reach and stabilise at the new temperature.

Neglected maintenance

One of the most common causes of poor cooling lies in neglected maintenance. So, check at least the following fridge components and arrange for them proper maintenance:
  • Door seals: clean sticky debris, arrange a replacement for cracked seals
  • Condenser coils: arrange coil cleaning to remove the dust (the dust prevents proper heat release)

​Note, the official guidance recommends hiring a professional for coil cleaning as doing the task yourself may damage the appliance.

Cases of deeper severity

Fan, motor, or control board failure

To understand whether it is a fan failure to blame for insufficient cooling, listen for the fan when the fridge is running. If the fan is silent, there could be some blockages between the fan blades or there can be a problem with the condenser fan motor.
​

Another severe cause of improper cooling is a control board failure. In any of the cases, you need to turn to a professional Sub-Zero repair engineer.

Issues with the refrigerant system

Sometimes, insufficient cooling may be a result of refrigerant leak and its low level. Both refrigerant refill and refrigerant system repair are complicated tasks that only a certified professional can perform (F-Gas certification). 

To conclude, it is worth mentioning that models with an electronic display can help you identify the issue, showing an error code or a flashing "SERVICE" indicator. In any case, you can always count on our Sub-Zero engineer, F-Gas certified to deal with the refrigerant system and proficient in Sub-Zero repairs.

Prepare your fridges for the hottest weather possible

Prepare Your Fridges for The Hottest Weather Possible


Summer heatwaves are not just uncomfortable for you but they are a great challenge to your fridge as well. When the outside temperature stays above 30°C for days, even a well-running appliance can start to struggle. Indeed, in summer requests for fridge repair are the most frequent compared to seasons.
​
In this post, we will discuss when and how to prepare your fridges for the hottest weather possible.

When you really need to prepare your fridge for heatwaves

Realities for fridges located indoors

If you have well-running air conditioning right in the kitchen or other room where your fridge is located, there is no need to bother about any special preparation. To clarify, your AC will keep your indoor climate fridge-friendly even in the hottest weather.

Still, even in this case, we recommend checking your fridge health:
  • Good fridge repair engineers often get overbooked in a summer season
  • It can be hard to get urgent fridge repairs during or right after summer heatwaves

​However, if your fridge is located in the room that has no AC to cool it properly, a 35°C heatwave will put extra load to the unit. So, in this case, it is wise to arrange proper preparations for your fridges to survive the hottest weather.

Realities for fridges located outdoors

If your fridge is located outdoors, make sure the unit is specifically rated for outdoor use. A standard fridge rated for 32°C max will fail when the temperature rises to 35°C or higher. For example, commercial, street food, and domestic outdoor fridges are typically rated for 43°C – with extra insulation and other engineering solutions.
​

So, if your fridge is located outdoors, check its climate class to understand whether it can survive the summer heat or not:
  • N-rated (Normal): 32°C max – standard home fridge, which is safe only in air-conditioned or naturally cool kitchens
  • ST-rated (Subtropical): 38°C max – much better for London heatwaves but risk still exists
  • T-rated (Tropical): 43°C max – the best choice for garages, outbuildings or outdoor use

How to prepare your fridge for heatwaves

Ensure proper maintenance

For example, once temperatures rise, a leaking seal can ruin your fridge by creating extra load and spoil your goods. Also, dust buildup reduces heat dumping by up to 40%. With clean coils, your fridge will enjoy greater chances to keep its performance at its top and stay ready for the summer heat.
​

So, to prepare your fridge for the summer heat, arrange its proper maintenance:
  • Test and replace door seals in advance
  • Clean the condenser coils

Create airflow space

Check the clearance right now. In hot weather, trapped heat has nowhere to go and puts extra load to the unit. So, prepare that airflow space to give you fridge a room to breathe. Move cabinets, shift clutter, pull your fridge away from the wall to create a 10-cm clearance around your unit.

Adjust temperatures

At least one day before the first hot day, lower your fridge to 2–3°C and freezer to –18°C. Lowering temperature increases the compressor load for the first few hours and doing it during the heatwave makes the compressor overwork. A proper pre-set gives you a buffer. Besides, pre-cooled fridge resists outside heat longer and better.
​

So, if you have a fridge in your garage or conservatory, check its rating. If it is not ST or T class, move it indoors before summer heatwaves. For any fridge that stays in a room without air conditioning, arrange proper maintenance, create breathing space, and adjust temperatures.

Getting very hot in London. Prepare now!


It is May 2026 and getting very hot from 20 at night to 33 degrees during the day time. Summer is coming, but the main question is if your appliances are also ready?
You can be a business or just a housholder and in both cases you may have fridge and air con. Hot weather creates extra pressure on operation of both types and any may break down at any time, especially if overloaded. 

Follow our simple steps of what you can do right now.


How to save your air con

Air con's main function is to cool down the property in general there is not much you can do to it except two very important aspects:

- Regular cleaning
- Comfortable outdoor unit


If your air con operates every day and most of the day hours then the filters have to be cleaned at least once in two-three weeks. it is very easy to do when it is a domestic air con and requires a professional help when it is a commercial unit.

The outdoor unit is something where you can do less manipulations, however we have seen when some businesses have their outdoor units covered or have a very close obstruction. Nothing has to stay in front of it. It has to have a few meters of free space for proper operation. 

Otherwise, if there is a problem already do not hesitate and contact us for air con repair service in London.

How to save your fridge

With the fridges it is less complicated and more manipulations can be made by the owners rather than professionals unless it is already broken. Here are some main things:

- Do not overload your fridge inside
- Do not locate it next to the oven
- Maintain comfortable room temperature in the kitchen
- Have your fridge checked by an engineer once in 6 months


If all the aspects are followed then you seriously reduce the possibility of the fridges break down, especially during the hot days in London. However, if you already need help contact our fridge repair team in London.

Recent Job: Sub Zero Can Be Thrown Away


One of our recent clients asked us to visit him for Sub Zero repair service in Central London, where we found his fridge in a very sad condition. The fridge could not operate and was not giving any sign of life at all. The client stated that if there is a 50/50 possibility of having that fridge working, he is ready to throw it away and consider buying another one but cheaper. Due to our wide experience we know that it was not the worst case, so we said that the possibility of it to be working again is 90% but we will have to get it into our warehouse to take time, especially because they already knew that there will be rare spare parts needed.

Currently, the Sub Zero fridge is still going through our service and should be returned to the client between 10 and 12th of May. As soon as we complete the service and make our client happy, we will post an update about this case.

Recent Job: Sub Zero Fridge Cooling Issues


We had a few Sub Zero clients last week, some of them had minor problems but one had a major cooling issue that took our engineers around two hours to deal with. You may know more about the issue by reading this article but if you are also looking for Sub Zero repairs service give us a call +44 203 603 7172.

Issue reason

The reason of such a long and deep service required is overloading. Yes, the fridge is a storage for keeping food and products inside but it has to be rational. The fridge could not spread the cooling inside, so the cooling system started breaking down. Moreover, the fridge was installed in the cupboard and had almost mo space behind itself, that was another serious reason for the cooling issue.

Our solution

We had to perform simple but very important steps:
1. Unload the fridge
2. Remove it from the cupboard
3. Start with the external fan cleaning 
4. Motor assessment (it may still work but already give signs of issues as it was overloaded)
5. Internal cooling system checkup

All of the steps took about 2 hours (without unloading) and the owners were lucky that they reacted just in time and avoided the change of the fan motor, otherwise it would be very costly.

We suggest

1. Space. Space. Space. Give your Sub Zero and any other fridge space behind it.
2. Space. Space. Space. Give your products some space inside the fridge and do not push them too close the back wall of the fridge.
3. Regular professional Sub Zero service to avoid major issues

Simple 3 step Sub Zero care guide
Follow our simple 3 steps guide on how to maintain your Sub Zero fridge in a good condition. If you are already experiencing issues then contact us and we will send you our best Sub Zero engineers in London!

Why Sub-Zero can be called as the best fridge brand

4/20/2026

Why Sub-Zero can be called as the best fridge brand


Sub-Zero is a luxury brand with strong best-in-class reputation. In short, Sub-Zero can be called as the best fridge brand because of two factors – exceptional durability and unique food preservation technology.

Exceptional durability

Based on our experience, requests for Sub-Zero repair in Greater London are much fewer than for most other brands, including luxury ones. Such exceptional durability is a result of their outstanding engineering philosophy and rigorous testing approach.

Outstanding engineering philosophy

The brand focuses on quality components and craftsmanship. Some of the examples of its premium engineering philosophy include:
  • Contaminant-resistant condensers – designed with advanced computer simulation to shed dust, pet hair, and grease
  • Magnetic door seals – 4-sided to lock in cold air on all door sides, stay at their top efficiency longer than standard door seals
High-grade microprocessor – custom-engineered to withstand power fluctuations, with a focus on overall monitoring instead of just managing basic on/off cycles.

Rigorous testing approach

In contrast to sample testing that many other brands run, Sub-Zero test their every unit. By 100% testing, every single Sub-Zero unit ensures consistent quality. Simply put, tests enable to identify and fix most of potential failures before shipping fridges to customers.
​

Moreover, Sub-Zero run extreme tests for major components before they approve the component engineering design. For example, the company runs about 300,000 open-close cycles for doors to ensure a long service life of door hinges and seals.

Unique food preservation technology

When it comes to food preservation, Sub-Sero has no competitors. Their unique food preservation system stands on the following technologies:
  • NASA-inspired air purification technology – scanning and filtering air every 20 minutes to remove ethylene gas and bacteria
  • Precise temperature management – precise sensors not only maintain stable temperature but also adapt temperature management to usage patterns

To sum up, while many other brands adopt just-enough engineering solutions to fit the mid-price segment and, thus, sacrifice longevity and performance, Sub-Zero stand out with their over-engineering and over-testing philosophy. Taken together with their unique food preservation system, all this has rightfully cemented for Sub-Zero a reputation as the best fridge brand.

Recent Job: Unusual Sub Zero Emergency at 11 PM


This is our the most recent Sub Zero job our engineers worked on and that was a very interesting case. A new client reached us at 9 pm 2 days ago and requested an emergency Sub Zero repair service for his two fridges, which broke down both at the same time. Very unusual, but nothing special.

Our specialists visited the client and the first thing they noticed was the worst mistake that can be done in the kitchen. A large Lacanche oven was installed next to the fridges. Both fridges were assessed and required deep fan cleaning, it was clear that both fridges were not serviced for a long time and got overheated.

The engineers performed the Sub Zero fan cleaning service within the next hour and started both fridges with no issue, however it was strongly recommended to relocate both fridges to avoid further emergencies. The owner said that he needs some time to plan the relocation, we respect that and will help him as soon as he makes his desicion.

Why people choose Sub-Zero fridges

11/26/2025

0 Comments

 

Why people choose Sub-Zero fridges


In short, people choose Sub-Zero fridges for their rich food preservation features, stylish design and architecture, and long-lasting engineering with little to no need for Sub-Zero repairs.
​

But let’s be more specific.

Food preservation

Sub-Zero helps food last much longer, compared to many other fridges. This superior food preservation is the result of at least three features the appliance is equipped with:
  • Dual refrigeration with precise temperature control
  • Precise humidity control
  • Unique air purification

​To clarify, separate refrigeration and freezing cavities prevent air or flavour migration. Individual evaporators for each storage zone ensure humidity sufficient for the storage purpose in these exact zones. Finally, one of the greatest features of the appliance is unique filters that destroy ethylene gas and bacteria to prolong food lifespan.


Design and architecture

Sub-Zero astonishes with its luxury, professional-looking design, distinguishing itself from many other brands, including even luxury ones. Its commercial-grade stainless steel and appealing glass fronts especially add the status and paramount aesthetics to a kitchen.
​

Besides its status-appealing exterior, people choose Sub-Zero fridges for their elaborate storage orchestration. Individual compartments in the freezer section, dedicated zones in the fridge section – all this eliminates the need to dig through a mountain of goods and helps the owners actually see and use what they have.

Long-lasting engineering

Sub-Zero fridges are built to last. While, on average, many other fridges in the luxury segment can run for 10-15 years, Sub-Zero can run without a single failure for 20-25 years.

Moreover, this exciting durability is proven with a longer-than-average warranty. For example, in the UK, the manufacturer offers a comprehensive 12-year product protection plan, which proves in itself how confident the manufacturer is in these appliances.
​

So, to sum up, people choose Sub-Zero fridges because the brand ensures status and appealing look, less food waste, and greater savings on repairs in the long run.

Why Your SMEG Fridge Might Not Be Cooling Properly

8/28/2025

Why Your SMEG Fridge Might Not Be Cooling Properly


A SMEG fridge is both stylish and functional, but like all appliances, it can sometimes develop faults. One of the most common problems SMEG owners face is when the fridge stops cooling or the temperature becomes inconsistent. If you’re dealing with this issue, getting expert SMEG fridge repair is the fastest way to restore your appliance’s performance.
Why SMEG fridge is not cooling

Context:
​Common reasons for cooling problems
  • Faulty thermostat
  • Blocked air vents
  • Dirty condenser coils
  • Defective compressor
  • Door seal problems​
Why you should act quickly
Why choose LE Company for SMEG fridge repairs

​Final thoughts

Common Reasons for Cooling Problems

1. Faulty Thermostat or Thermistor

A broken or inaccurate thermostat (in mechanical models) or thermistor (temperature sensor in electronic models) can prevent your SMEG fridge from reaching the correct temperature. This leads to warm food storage conditions and spoiled produce.

How to check
Place a thermometer in a glass of water on the middle shelf and leave it for 12 hours, while ensuring proper door sealing. If the actual temperature consistently differs from your set temperature by more than 2°C, the thermostat (or thermistor) is likely faulty.
For electronic models, reset the system by de-energising the fridge for about 15 minutes and then, repeat the check.

How to fix
Replacing the faulty thermostat or, especially, the thermistor is not a DIY job. You need a qualified refrigeration engineer to test and replace the component safely and correctly.

2. Blocked Air Vents or Clogged Drain Hole

If the vents are obstructed or the drain hole is clogged, cold air cannot circulate properly. Overloading the fridge or blocking airflow with large items often causes this.

How to check

Open your fridge doors and look for any items pressed directly against the back wall or the vent openings. Also, check for excessive ice build-up around the vent, which restricts airflow. Also, inspect the unit for food spills and residue, which might clog air vent openings by accumulating dust and debris.

How to fix

Dealing with blocked air vents or a clogged drain hole is a simple DIY fix:
  • If blockages exist, rearrange items to ensure a clear gap in front of all vents
  • For ice build-up, turn the fridge off, leave the doors open to defrost naturally, and wipe up the water
  • To get rid of spills or sticky residues, clean the interior with a solution of warm water and some dishwashing detergent

​Once cleared, the airflow and temperature should return to normal within a few hours.

3. Dirty Condenser Coils

Dust and dirt build-up on condenser coils reduces the fridge’s ability to release heat, making the cooling system work harder and less effectively.

How to check
Unplug the appliance. Right after that, touch the back of the fridge to check for the excessive hot, one of the obvious signs of dirty condenser coils. Then, pull the fridge away from the wall and remove the back panel, if present. If you see a thick layer of dust covering the coils, they are dirty and need cleaning.
​

How to fix
Cleaning condenser coils is a simple DIY maintenance task. Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment and a coil cleaning brush to remove all dust. Be careful not to bend the fins. After cleaning, plug the fridge back in and allow up to 24 hours for the temperature to stabilise.

4. Defective Compressor

The compressor is the heart of your fridge. When it fails, the entire cooling process is disrupted. This is a job only a qualified engineer should handle.

How to check
First, check the interior light is on and listen to the compressor running. The normal sound of the compressor running is a low hum. If the compressor is completely silent and the interior light is on, the problem is definitely with the compressor. If you hear a repeated clicking sound every 30-90 seconds, it is a sign of a problem with compressor.

​Also, you can check the compressor health by feeling its temperature or vibration. For this, gently
place your hand on the compressor access panel. You should feel a steady vibration and some warm to the touch when the compressor is running. If no vibration is detected and the access panel is ice-cold, it means the compressor isn't generating the necessary heat exchange.

How to fix
Never attempt DIY compressor repairs. Compressor repairs are highly complex, involving high-voltage electrics and sealed refrigerant systems. This job absolutely requires a certified professional, who has special tools and knowledge to diagnose, replace, and refill the system safely.

5. Door Seal Problems

Worn or damaged seals allow warm air to enter the fridge, which forces the appliance to work overtime without maintaining the correct temperature.

How to check
Close the door on a piece of paper (or a £5 note). If the paper falls out or you can pull the paper out with very little resistance, the seal is not airtight. Also, visually inspect the rubber gasket for cracks, warping, or areas that have become flattened.

A build-up of moisture or frost on the outside of the door is a red flag you have door seal problems.

How to fix
First, clean the seal thoroughly with warm soapy water, as dirt can prevent it from gripping properly. For minor warping, you can try gently warming the gasket with a hairdryer and stretching it back into shape.
​

However, if it is cracked, the seal needs replacement. While possible for DIY, fitting the door seal can be tricky and it can be difficult to get it right and ensure an airtight fit. Therefore, if you feel uncertain, for door seal replacement we recommend turning to professionals.

Coffee shop main appliance support


What are the main appliances your coffee shop cannot run without? Right you are – a coffee machine and fridge! Do you need any professional support to have these units running flawlessly? Yes, of course! And this is what LE Company is happy to offer you.

Support for your coffee machine

Let the first appliance come first. Indeed, it is impossible to imagine a coffee shop without a coffee machine. And, yes, we are sure your barista provides it with sufficient daily care, cleaning its components to their good. Still, you may need extra support with your espresso maker. In other words, you may need its professional servicing.
The coffee machine service covers both maintenance and repair tasks. To clarify, while your unit may require repairs only when getting old (at least, we hope so), regular maintenance is what it needs from its first year of running.
Commercial coffee machine support
Moreover, there is a strong correlation between the fact of ignoring regular maintenance and the breakdown frequency rate. So, service your coffee machine regularly, and you will enjoy its longer lifespan.
For support with your coffee machine, you can always count on LE Company. We will help you keep your espresso machine at top performance and repair it if it breaks down.

Support for your refrigeration appliances

Of course, you can consider a fridge just as an auxiliary appliance. However, it is hard to imagine a coffee shop having no refrigeration appliance at all. Indeed, even if you offer your customers nothing but coffee, you need equipment to store milk and cream. And that is where a fridge helps you.
So, your fridge task is to keep milk and cream fresh as long as possible and cool to the sufficient degree. In turn, your task is to keep your fridge well-running. In other words, you need to:
  • Arrange efficient fridge repair if it breaks down
  • Service the appliance on a scheduled basis to prevent deterioration of its performance and loading of its motor
For each of these tasks, you will get impeccable support if you turn to us. Our engineers accomplish quick and efficient on-site fridge repairs. In eight cases out of ten, they can bring the appliance up and running in one go.
In addition, we service HVAC equipment, cooking appliances, and dishwashers. So, contract us for servicing your coffee shop appliances, and rest assured we will care about them properly, providing our dedicated support for your every engineering needs.

Make sure it is cold. Fridge maintenance tips.

Make sure it is cold. Fridge maintenance tips.


Your fridge works hard to cool your beverages and keep your goods fresh. But do you know you can help it a lot to fulfill its refrigeration duty and stay cool while making just a little effort?
Yes, your simplest maintenance tasks are not to let warm outside air get inside your fridge and prevent cold inside air from getting warm.

Don’t keep the doors open

Sometimes, people open their fridge and freeze in front of it, trying to recall what they want to take. Or, and this is another common case, they leave the doors open while they go for other items to put for cooling. But the worst case is leaving doors open unintentionally overnight or the like. Because in this case, the open-door period is the longest.
In all these cases, the temperature in the refrigerator rises. In other words, it becomes less cold. And there are two reasons for this:
  • Warm outside air gets into the appliance and replaces its cold inside air
  • A fridge light bulb is on and serves as an additional heat source
And, by the way, the longer your fridge stays open, the warmer the outside air gets. And, then, this air slips into your fridge. Well, do you like this scenario? So, do not keep the doors open intentionally longer than you need to take or put an item. And always check the door to make sure it is properly closed.
Sometimes, the light stays on even while the door is closed, so you have a constant heat source inside. This malfunction is especially frequent with commercial refrigeration appliances. This not only spoils groceries but may cause even greater breakdowns. As great as motor failure. Therefore, if you have such an issue with your commercial or residential fridge, you need to fix it as quickly as possible.

By the way, for capital-based grocers or catering businesses, commercial fridge repair in London by LE Company is a quick remedy to resolve the issue.

Keep your fridge door seals clean and intact

The door seals (gaskets) are not only for softening the fridge door impact on its body. They are also to prevent warm outside air from getting inside the fridge. Indeed, there are no perfectly flat surfaces that fit tightly together that leave no chances for warm air.
Thus, to keep your fridge cold, ensure there is no gap between the closed door and the fridge body. So, inspect and clean the gaskets regularly:
  • Every time you open the fridge door, take a quick glance at the gaskets and the body at the place where they get in contact. Make sure they are free of food residues and other debris and wipe them off if any. 
  • Once a month inspect the gaskets carefully to make sure they are intact. If you discover any cracks, cuts, or tears, replace the gaskets.

To clarify, food residues, debris create micro gaps that let warm air get inside. So do cracks, cuts, and tears. Besides, some food residues (for example, jam residues) act as glue, and the gaskets may stick to the body and tear when you are opening the door.
And yes, there is one more tip to give: do not put hot food into your fridge.

One example of our distinguished services

Our engineers involved in Wolf oven and Sub Zero fridge customer service are highly in demand for their client-oriented approach. For example, recently we were hired by one of family-owned restaurants to help with Wolf oven deep cleaning and to vacuum Zub Zero condenser as it is recommended to execute every 3 to 6 months. Being very popular, this restaurant was always crowded that meant its equipment was constantly in use. And we had to perform our task providing the least possible business interruption.
​
Regarding client needs and priorities as our own, we cooperated with the owner to make a complete picture of his equipment workload. This way we managed to find a window in the constant orders flow and complete the job under this limit. Simultaneously with cleaning and vacuuming our Wolf experts inspected the functionality of the Oven Controller and Relay boards, ready to accomplish troubleshooting if necessary.
