Chiller repairs

Anyone in bar knows someone that can repair a Chiller? Think mine died.

Good question. I have a 1/2hp chiller sitting in the garage because the control board fried. I was tempted to just tie it into an Stc-1000 to bypass the control board but I'm not an electrician and don't want to kill myself.
 
Check the fuse yet?
What brand?
hp?
Current USA it's not the fuse as it spins fan and it vibrates so compressor is in just not cooling. Either have a leak or something. As if I turn off the water to it it cools that little water in the system super fast.

True about blockage, too.
You can run vinegar through the unit o/n.
At worst, I guess you will need to contact a refrigerant company but probably best to ask current the type of refrigerant should you need a recharge
 
Do you need to borrow a chiller. My 1/3 how is just sitting there. Thought you were using fans?

Using both. I had a spare that I connected in while I troubleshoot this one. :)

You can also get a kit from Amazon to refill the refrigerant too in case it needs some.
But as the others posted, a blockage might be the problem if the chiller does cool some of the water.
