A slow refrigerant leak rarely announces itself with drama. It announces itself with rising energy bills, warmer product and emergency call-outs.
At EJM Refrigeration we see the same pattern across industrial and commercial sites: small issues left unresolved become expensive interruptions. A clear plan, competent engineers and timely maintenance keep temperatures stable and costs under control.
What leaks really cost
Lost refrigerant is only the start. Compressors work harder, product quality risks rise, and unplanned downtime arrives at the worst moment. For ammonia and CO₂ systems, early detection is also a core safety control.
Detection that fits the site
Fixed sensors, routine sniffer checks and robust alarm response all have a place. The right mix depends on refrigerant type, charge size, plant layout and how quickly your team can respond.
Make it part of PPM
Leak detection should sit inside planned maintenance, not beside it. EJM can review your current arrangements and strengthen them before a small leak becomes a major incident.
If your site is planning works, reviewing energy use, or simply needs a reliable service partner, our team can help from initial survey through installation and ongoing maintenance.
If you would like advice on your plant, a site survey, or a planned maintenance proposal, contact EJM Refrigeration on 01429 836161 or email [email protected].
