Fault diagnosis
Common Trane aircon faults we investigate

- Condenser or evaporator fouling
- Compressor, fan or pump failure
- Control-panel and sensor faults
How diagnosis is handled
Trane equipment is assessed as part of the whole plant. A chiller fault can be caused by the refrigeration circuit, condenser condition, chilled-water flow, pumps, valves, sensors or the control sequence. We investigate these interactions before recommending a major repair.
For critical plant, Topworks can structure planned inspections around operating hours and site requirements. Service reports can include readings, defects, risk items and recommendations for follow-up work.
