Cool Room Installation & Repair · Urunga
The Urunga commercial cool room base is small in absolute terms — the town's dwelling and business stock is limited — but every cool room here still gets the same room-first diagnostic sequence FHC applies to every job: doors, seals, product load and airflow before refrigeration testing. That order prevents the wrong-fix pattern that plagues cool room servicing when contractors skip straight to refrigerant.
Cool rooms for Urunga small hospitality and short-stay operators
Small hospitality tenants and food-service operators serving Urunga's residential and tourist trade make up the bulk of the town's cool room service demand. Trading-hours downtime carries the standard combined food-safety and revenue pressure, and preventative maintenance agreements sized to specific equipment consistently outperform reactive-only servicing on three-year cost comparisons even at this smaller commercial scale.
Urunga's customer base — retirees, sea-changers, small hospitality operators — generally values plain explanations, upfront pricing on the labour rate, and honest quotes. FHC's pricing approach matches. Business-hours call-out is $132 AUD including the first hour of labour; parts, refrigerant and additional labour are quoted separately once the fault and requirements are known. New cool room installations fall under Bellingen Shire Council consent.
What FHC delivers on every cool room installation & repair
Cool room and freezer room work covers diagnosis, servicing, maintenance and repair for hospitality, retail, food and other commercial operators. FHC starts every cool room call by checking the room itself first: door condition, seal integrity, product load, and airflow blockages. If the room conditions are sound, testing then moves to the refrigeration system. This order matters — jumping straight to refrigerant testing on a room where the door seal is failing costs the customer money for the wrong fix.
Where refrigeration testing reveals an actual system fault, FHC handles the full recovery: refrigerant recovered into a reclaim bottle, faulty parts replaced using correct industry procedures, system pressure-tested for leaks, recharged with the correct refrigerant weight, and full operational testing carried out before handover. All refrigerant work is completed by ARCtick-licensed technicians (AU069269). FHC also holds an air-conditioning and refrigeration licence and $5 million public liability insurance.
The business-hours call-out is $132 including the first hour of labour. After-hours is charged at double time with a three-hour minimum ($264/hr, $792 minimum). Parts, refrigerant, freight and additional labour are separate. Timeline is job-dependent — parts availability, leak location and failed components affect completion. A 12-month workmanship warranty applies where conditions apply, and manufacturer warranties apply separately.
