KIC fridge repairs in Durban
KIC fridge and freezer repairs in Durban: compressors, refrigerant blockages, internal leaks and corroded tubing, fixed on site.
KIC fridges are found in homes, flats and small businesses all over Durban, and plenty of them are still going after many years. We repair KIC fridges and freezers on site and tell you plainly whether the repair makes sense.
KIC units tend to show up with a particular set of faults, many of them linked to the sealed system, which is why a proper diagnosis matters more than a quick top-up.
Faults we see on KIC fridges
- Compressor problems
- Refrigerant blockages in the sealed system
- Internal refrigerant leaks
- Corrosion on the steel tubing
- Faulty thermostats
- Door seals that no longer close properly
Corroded tubing and internal leaks are the cases where a repair may not be worth the cost. We will tell you before you spend money, and we will not push a repair that will not last.

KIC repairs: questions we get
Is it worth repairing an old KIC fridge?
It depends on the fault. A thermostat or a fan is a reasonable repair. Internal leaks or corroded tubing often are not. We will give you an honest answer after we have looked at it.
Why does my KIC fridge stop cooling and then start again?
That can point to a refrigerant blockage or a failing compressor start. It is worth having it looked at before it stops completely.
