Beer cellar cooling for Coventry's pubs and bars

Cask and keg beer lives or dies at cellar temperature. Above 13°C, beer fobs, goes cloudy and wastes; ullage climbs and so do complaints. Chill Rooms has spent 20+ years looking after cellar cooling in Coventry, Warwickshire and the wider Midlands — for traditional pubs, sports bars, social clubs, music venues and restaurants with cellar storage.

Cellar cooling repairs — fast, any day of the week

A cellar cooler that fails on Thursday threatens the whole weekend's trade. Our 24/7 emergency service covers cellar cooling breakdowns: iced-up evaporators, failed fans, refrigerant leaks, tripped condensing units and faulty thermostats. Most faults are diagnosed and fixed on the first visit, and we'll always tell you honestly whether an ageing system is worth another repair.

New cellar cooling installation

We design and install cellar cooling systems sized properly for your cellar — because an undersized unit runs flat-out and dies young, while an oversized one short-cycles and wastes energy. A typical installation includes:

Heat-load survey of your cellar — volume, insulation, ground temperature and throughput
Correctly sized evaporator and condensing unit, positioned for airflow and serviceability
Accurate thermostatic control at the classic 11–13°C cask cellar range
Tidy pipework and condensate management
Commissioning, temperature verification and F-Gas documentation

Cellar cooler servicing that protects your beer quality

Cellars are dusty, humid environments and coolers there clog faster than almost any other refrigeration. An annual or six-monthly service — coil cleaning, refrigerant and leak check, fan and control inspection — keeps the system efficient through the summer months when it matters most. Add your cellar cooler to a PPM contract alongside your fridges and ice machine and cover the whole site in one visit.

FAQ / Straight answers

Frequently asked questions

What temperature should a beer cellar be?

For cask ale and most kegs, 11–13°C is the standard. Consistency matters as much as the number — temperature swings cause fobbing and waste. A correctly sized, well-maintained cooler holds the range steadily even in summer.

My cellar cooler is running constantly but the cellar is still warm — why?

The usual suspects are a dirty or iced evaporator, a blocked condenser, low refrigerant from a leak, or a unit that was undersized to begin with. All are fixable — call us and we'll diagnose it quickly, often the same day in Coventry.

Can you fit cellar cooling in an old pub cellar?

Yes — old, awkward and partially below-ground cellars are our bread and butter. The heat-load survey accounts for the building's quirks, and we position equipment to work with the space you actually have.

How often should cellar cooling be serviced?

At least annually, ideally before summer; busy or dusty cellars benefit from six-monthly visits. Regular coil cleaning is the difference between a cooler coasting through a heatwave and one failing during it.

Do you cover clubs, restaurants and bars as well as pubs?

Yes — anywhere with a cellar or keg store: bars, nightclubs, social and sports clubs, hotels, restaurants and event venues across Coventry and the Midlands.

Cellar running warm before the weekend?

Don't pour profit down the drain. Call now and we'll get your cellar cooling running — fast.
