Preventative Maintenance
Programs PerthPlanned Servicing for Commercial Refrigeration & Air Conditioning
Scheduled maintenance programs that reduce breakdowns, protect your stock and extend the life of your equipment. Tailored to hospitality, retail and industrial sites across Perth Metro — with priority response for contracted clients.
Why Preventative Maintenance Matters
Commercial refrigeration and air conditioning systems work hard in Perth's climate. Without scheduled servicing, equipment can become less efficient, wear more quickly and be more likely to fail at inconvenient times — during peak service, a busy weekend or the middle of summer.
A preventative maintenance program from Tempo gives you predictable scheduled servicing instead of relying only on reactive callouts. Our technicians inspect, clean and check your equipment on a planned schedule, helping identify small issues before they develop into larger faults. For commercial venues running coolrooms, freezers, fridges and air conditioning, regular maintenance is a practical way to improve reliability and plan ahead.
Fewer Breakdowns
Routine servicing catches faults early — before they cause stock loss, downtime or emergency callouts.
Lower Running Costs
Clean, well-maintained equipment can operate more efficiently and reduce unnecessary energy use.
Longer Equipment Life
Routine maintenance can reduce unnecessary wear on compressors, fans, condensers and other key components.
Priority Response
Contracted clients are prioritised for emergency callouts and receive faster response times.
The Real Cost of No Maintenance
Stock Loss
A single coolroom failure can lead to significant stock loss, downtime and disruption to your business.
Emergency Callout Fees
After-hours and weekend callouts cost significantly more than scheduled visits, and parts may not be available immediately.
Compressor Replacement
A failed compressor from a preventable fault can cost more to replace than years of preventative servicing.
Lost Trading Hours
A coolroom or air conditioning failure during peak service can force a venue to close, refund customers or operate at reduced capacity.
Higher Energy Bills
Dirty condensers and worn components force equipment to work harder, quietly increasing power consumption month after month.
Compliance & Food Safety
Temperature excursions in food storage can trigger compliance issues, failed audits and reputational damage.

Maintenance Program FAQs
What does a maintenance program actually cover?
Each visit includes a full inspection and clean of your refrigeration and air conditioning equipment — condensers, coils, compressors, door seals, defrost cycles, controllers, electrical connections and filters. You receive a written report after every visit.
How often should my equipment be serviced?
It depends on the equipment, the environment and how hard it works. A small café might need biannual servicing, while a busy commercial kitchen or cold storage facility usually benefits from quarterly or monthly visits. We assess your site and recommend the right frequency.
Can a maintenance program save me money?
It can help reduce avoidable costs by keeping equipment clean and efficient, identifying developing faults earlier and reducing the risk of unexpected breakdowns. It can also help extend the useful life of well-maintained equipment.
Do maintenance clients get priority during breakdowns?
Yes. Maintenance clients are prioritised for breakdown attendance, subject to technician availability, site location and the urgency of the fault.
What equipment do you maintain?
Coolrooms, walk-in freezers, commercial fridges, display cabinets, ice machines, glycol systems, beer chillers, ducted air conditioning, VRF systems and split systems. We work with all major brands.
I need a one-off repair, not a program — can you help?
Yes. We also provide one-off coolroom repairs, commercial refrigeration repairs and commercial air conditioning servicing across Perth Metro.
Are your technicians ARCtick licensed?
Yes. Refrigerant handling work is carried out by appropriately licensed technicians. TEMPO HVAC & Refrigeration holds ARCtick licence AU65580.
Do I have to sign a long contract?
We tailor the service frequency and scope to your site and discuss the maintenance arrangement with you before any program is put in place.
Can you maintain equipment you didn't install?
Yes. We service equipment regardless of who installed it, including older systems and equipment from other refrigeration suppliers.
