03 338 6869Chiller Installation, Repairs & Maintenance
Christchurch and Canterbury
Keep your process cooling working reliably with Chillwell. We install, repair and maintain water chillers, glycol chillers and specialist cooling systems for businesses across Christchurch and Canterbury.
With 25 years of refrigeration and air-conditioning experience, we work on chilled process vats, food-production cooling equipment and specialised bespoke refrigeration machinery. Our project experience includes cooling for X-ray equipment and plastic-moulding processes. Whether you need help with an existing system or a new installation, we start with your process requirements and practical operating needs.
Water, Glycol & Process Chiller Installation

A chiller needs to suit the job it is doing. For chiller installations in Christchurch and Canterbury, we assess required temperatures, cooling load, fluid flow, available space and existing equipment before recommending an installation or upgrade.
Water chillers: Supply and installation for chilled-water and process-cooling applications, with equipment selected to suit your operating conditions.
Glycol chillers: Cooling systems for applications that require a glycol solution, with fluid selection and concentration considered alongside temperature and equipment requirements.
Chilled process vats: Cooling solutions for vats and associated production equipment, tailored to your process.
Bespoke machinery and upgrades: Practical refrigeration solutions for specialist machines and existing systems. We discuss the proposed scope, compatibility and any additional work before proceeding.
Produce and food-process cooling: We assess water and glycol chiller systems for produce handling, chilled vats and food-production equipment. Cooling requirements depend on the product, incoming temperature, throughput and required pull-down time. We work through these details with you before recommending equipment.
Plastic-moulding and equipment cooling: We work on process-cooling systems serving plastic-moulding machinery and X-ray equipment. Selection starts with the equipment manufacturer’s temperature, flow and fluid requirements, along with the site operating conditions.
Planning a new installation? Send your target fluid temperature, process or product details, operating hours and any available cooling-load or flow information. Photos, equipment specifications and site plans help us assess the project. If those figures are not known, we can discuss what needs to be assessed before sizing the system.
Chiller Repair Services

If your chiller is not holding temperature, showing alarms or interrupting production, Chillwell can investigate the fault and explain the recommended repairs.
Our fault-finding covers:
- Poor cooling performance and unstable temperatures
- Refrigerant leaks and refrigeration-circuit faults
- Compressor faults
- Water or glycol flow problems
- Heat-exchanger performance and control issues
We assess the equipment and discuss repair options, including any further investigation or replacement parts required.
When you contact us, include the make and model, alarm messages, operating temperature and a brief description of the problem. Photos of the unit and its nameplate can also help.
Call 03 338 6869 to arrange a service visit. For other equipment, see our commercial refrigeration services.
Preventive Chiller Maintenance
Planned servicing helps identify developing faults and keep your chiller operating reliably. We tailor maintenance to the equipment, application and operating conditions.
Depending on your system, maintenance can include:
- Checking operating temperatures and refrigeration performance
- Inspecting compressors, condensers and accessible components
- Checking water or glycol circulation and system controls
- Assessing heat-exchanger condition and cleaning requirements
- Checking glycol concentration where applicable
- Reporting faults, wear and recommended follow-up work
We explain what needs attention so you can plan repairs and maintenance around your operation. Talk to us about a planned chiller maintenance programme for your water chiller, glycol system or chilled process equipment.
