Fridge gas refilling in Nairobi.

When a fridge runs all day but stays warm, low gas is often the cause. We find the leak, fix it, then recharge with the exact gas your fridge was built for, so it stays cold.

What we fix

Common fridge problems.

Tell us what it’s doing and we’ll usually know the likely cause before we arrive.

01

Running but warm

The compressor runs and the light works, but the fridge never gets cold. The classic sign of a gas leak.

02

Freezer cold, fridge warm

Often a partial gas loss, a blocked capillary or a failed fan on frost-free fridges.

03

Frost on one part only

A patch of frost on the evaporator while the rest stays warm points to low gas.

04

Hissing or oily patches

A hiss near the back or oil marks on pipes show where gas is escaping.

05

Gas refilled before, warm again

The leak was never fixed. Refilling without sealing the leak only lasts weeks.

06

Compressor very hot

Low gas makes the compressor run non-stop and overheat. Fixing it early saves the compressor.

Before you call: listen at the back. If the compressor hums for hours and the fridge is still warm, switch it off and book a gas check. Running it empty for days can burn out the compressor.

Questions

Fridge questions.

Still not sure? Call 0725 570 499 or send a photo of the fault on WhatsApp.

How do I know my fridge needs gas?

The fridge runs non-stop but stays warm, the back pipes feel barely cold, and frost forms on only part of the evaporator. The technician confirms it with a pressure test before refilling.

Do you fix the leak or just refill the gas?

We always find and seal the leak first. Refilling a leaking fridge only works for a few weeks, so we fix it, fit a new filter drier, pull a vacuum and then charge the gas.

Which gas does my fridge use?

Most new fridges use R600a; older ones and many freezers use R134a. It is printed on the rating plate inside the fridge. We always use the gas your fridge was designed for.

How long does a gas refill take?

Usually two to three hours at your home, including leak repair, vacuum and testing until the fridge is cold.

How much is fridge gas refilling in Nairobi?

It depends on the gas type and where the leak is. Diagnosis is free and you get the full price before any work starts.
