Signs Your Chiller Needs Immediate Attention
Chiller Not Reaching Setpoint Temperature
Likely Cause
Refrigerant loss, a fouled condenser, or compressor degradation.
Action
Schedule an urgent inspection, a performance test is required.
Unusual Noise from the Compressor
Likely Cause
Bearing failure, liquid slugging, or refrigerant migration.
Action
This is an emergency call, the compressor is at risk.
Chilled Water Supply Temperature Rising
Likely Cause
Evaporator fouling, reduced water flow, or a refrigerant issue.
Action
Immediate inspection needed, cooling capacity is compromised.
High Head Pressure Alarm
Likely Cause
A fouled condenser coil or tubes, condenser fan failure, or high ambient temperature.
Action
Clean the condenser urgently, compressor protection is at risk.
Increased Electricity Consumption
Likely Cause
The system working harder due to fouling, a refrigerant issue, or mechanical wear.
Action
An efficiency audit to identify and resolve the root cause.
Water Leaks from the Chiller
Likely Cause
Tube failure, a pump seal issue, or a drain blockage.
Action
Immediate inspection, there's a real water damage risk.
Frequent Safety Trips and Alarms
Likely Cause
Multiple possible causes, electrical, refrigerant, or water flow related.
Action
An urgent diagnostic visit is required.
Last Maintenance Was 6+ Months Ago
Likely Cause
Maintenance overdue, Dubai's climate demands quarterly service at minimum.
Action
Schedule a standard maintenance visit.
The Dubai Operating Environment
Why
Chiller Maintenance
Is Critical in Dubai
Continuous Operation Demand
Dubai chillers often run 10 to 18 hours a day for 8 to 10 months a year, well beyond what chillers built for cooler climates are designed for.
Cost of Neglect
Parts can wear out well ahead of their expected lifecycle.
Scale & Mineral Buildup
Dubai's water is hard, so scale builds up fast inside water-cooled chiller tubes if it isn't treated properly.
Cost of Neglect
Just 1mm of scale can raise energy use by 10 to 12%, a real ongoing cost on your DEWA bill.
Refrigerant Degradation
Extreme heat breaks down refrigerant faster and raises the risk of leaks in large systems.
Cost of Neglect
Lost refrigerant means weaker cooling and a harder-working compressor, which eventually fails.
Condenser Fouling
Desert dust and sand build up on outdoor coils fast, sometimes within weeks.
Cost of Neglect
A dirty condenser raises pressure inside the system, and efficiency can drop noticeably as the compressor strains to keep up.
Financial Impact of Downtime
A chiller failure in a hotel, mall or hospital means complaints, health risks and lost revenue, right away.
Cost of Neglect
An emergency repair can easily cost several times more than scheduled maintenance, not counting the cost of being shut down.
DEWA Compliance
UAE energy rules increasingly apply to large cooling systems.
Cost of Neglect
A poorly maintained chiller risks compliance trouble and higher DEWA charges.

Refrigerant circuit check, outdoor unit inspection, control system calibration.
Complete Systematic Inspection
Our 12-Point
Chiller Maintenance
Checklist
01
Compressor Performance Check
Measure amp draw, suction and discharge pressure, and check for abnormal vibration or noise. The compressor is the most expensive component in the system.
02
Refrigerant Level & Leak Test
Check system pressure and perform electronic leak detection on all connections, joints and components.
03
Condenser Coil / Tube Cleaning
Air-cooled: high-pressure fin and coil clean. Water-cooled: tube brush cleaning and chemical descaling.
04
Evaporator Tube Inspection
Inspect for scale, fouling or tube damage, cleaned if required. Approach temperature checked against design spec.
05
Cooling Tower Inspection
Check fill media, drift eliminators, basin, pumps and the water treatment system.
06
Chilled Water Pump Inspection
Check pump performance, bearing condition, seal integrity and impeller condition.
07
Condenser Water Pump Inspection
Check flow rate, vibration and seal condition, verified against design specifications.
08
Control Panel & BMS Check
Inspect control settings, alarms and safeties, and check BMS integration. Sensors and setpoints are calibrated.
09
Electrical Connection Check
Tighten all terminals, check contactors, overloads and phase balance.
10
Water Treatment Check (water-cooled)
Verify the water treatment program, inhibitor levels, biocide dosing, pH and conductivity readings.
11
Refrigerant Log Update
Record refrigerant charge, operating pressures and temperatures, maintaining a service log for compliance.
12
Post-Service Performance Report
A full written report. All 12 points rated, findings documented, recommendations stated, next service date confirmed.
