Freezestats
Freezestats are crucial parts in commercial HVAC systems. They are designed to detect and prevent coils from freezing. They are a temperature control component that detects low temperatures in a building’s HVAC system. Freezestats are often used in rooftop units, air handlers, and fan coil units.

Faulty freezestats can cause costly damage and downtime and often occur when cold weather spikes. Failure can cause water damage, broken pipes, and system shut down, and the compressor or fan can fail to shut off during freezing temperatures. Alarm codes can also display on the control panel related to low temperature or freeze protection. Failure can cause heating or cooling loss which upsets building occupant comfort, which is a concern for property managers and owners. Freezestats are an inexpensive way to avoid these risks.
Annual inspection of system freezestats is important. Technicians would be looking for physical damage, capillary leakage or damage. It’s important to replace it when it does not trip at the correct temperature, if the capillary tube is damaged or if the system is having freeze-ups even if the airflow is good.
