📝 Water Dispenser Not Cooling? How GossTech Diagnoses, Quotes & Repairs Across Kenya
A water dispenser not cooling can be frustrating, especially in offices, institutions, and homes where chilled drinking water is essential. GossTech, a leading appliance repair company in Kenya, specializes in diagnosing and repairing such issues efficiently, affordably, and countrywide.
This guide explains in detail how GossTech approaches a faulty water dispenser that fails to cool, how they provide quotations, the repair process, and the geographical reach of their services.
1️⃣ Common Causes of a Water Dispenser Not Cooling
Before diving into the diagnosis process, it’s important to understand the possible reasons a water dispenser may stop cooling. Some of the causes include:
| Cause | Description |
|---|---|
| Faulty compressor | The compressor may have failed or lost efficiency, affecting cooling. |
| Gas leakage | Refrigerant gas leakage reduces cooling capacity. |
| Thermostat malfunction | A defective thermostat may not signal the cooling system to turn on. |
| Faulty condenser or evaporator | Dirty or damaged coils prevent heat exchange. |
| Electrical faults | Faulty wiring or PCB board may disrupt cooling. |
| Fan motor failure | The fan may not be spinning, leading to poor heat dissipation. |
2️⃣ GossTech Diagnosis Process
GossTech uses a step-by-step diagnostic approach to identify the root cause. Below is a breakdown:
| Step | Details |
|---|---|
| Initial inspection | Physical inspection of exterior, power connection, and switches. |
| Electrical tests | Using a multimeter to test voltage, continuity, thermostat function, compressor windings. |
| Cooling test | Observing the compressor operation, refrigerant line temperature, and evaporator condition. |
| Leak detection | Using UV dye, soap solution, or an electronic leak detector to check refrigerant leaks. |
| Component testing | Checking fan motor, capacitor, relay, overload protector, and control board for defects. |
✅ On-site diagnosis is done in Nairobi and major towns, while in remote areas, customers may be asked to deliver the dispenser to the nearest service center or arrange pickup.
