Why your freezer is tripping breaker
The freezer shows it plainly enough: the breaker trips within seconds of the compressor attempting to start, and resets fine until the next start attempt. Left alone, this usually escalates from one failed part to several.
Causes, in the order we check them
- 01A part that's blocked, leaking, or sitting out of alignment
- 02A worn internal component finally giving out
- 03A mechanical part that's simply reached end of life
- 04An electrical or control-circuit fault
Quick checks worth doing
Before you call it in, note exactly when it trips — at switch-on, at a particular stage, or after a period of running — because each points somewhere different. Also, unplug the freezer and confirm the same breaker then holds, which separates the appliance from the circuit. Worth pinning down: check whether the condenser coils at the back or underneath are visibly packed with dust or lint. If it's still acting up after that, a repeat trip means a genuine fault current somewhere in the appliance, and hunting for it means working on live wiring — stop here and call someone.
Our technician runs a full sealed-system and control diagnostic on your freezer before quoting anything. The repair is backed by the labor and parts warranty once the cause is confirmed and put right.
What St. Johns's climate does to a freezer
A St. Johns summer is a long one, and a freezer runs through all of it without a break. Ambient heat raises the condensing temperature all summer, so the compressor runs closer to its limit for months at a stretch. Every technician on our team checks for that wear on a St. Johns call as a matter of course, not as an upsell.

Common questions
Answered before you call.
How do I know if it is worth repairing?
You will be told plainly. There is no value to us in selling a repair that will not hold, and the diagnosis is what makes that call — not the age on the badge.
Is the repair covered by a warranty?
Every repair carries an 18-month labor warranty and a 90-day parts warranty. If the same issue returns in that window, we come back at no charge.
How does the visit work?
A technician diagnoses a freezer that is tripping breaker at component level, confirms the cause by measurement, and walks you through the finding before any part is touched.
Where do the replacement parts come from?
Genuine parts where the repair calls for them — and an honest answer when a component is discontinued and the only route is an equivalent.
