  • Avanti not cooling. No refrigerent?

    Hey, i'm new on here and have an Avanti kegerator. After moving, the kegerator will not cool at all (temp inside is same as outside) no lines getting cold. I can hear the compressor running so i'm wondering if the refrigerant leaked out somehow during the move. Are there any service valves on these? Any other advice appreciated.

    Iceman will likely have more info, but you may have moved it in a fashion that allowed the compressor oil to migrate away from the innards that need its protection.
    Malt is the soul of beer... and yeast gives it life..
    but the kiss of the hop is the vitality of that life!

    My three favorite beers: The one I just had, the one I'm drinking now and the next one I'll have.

      did you tilt the kegerator or turn it on it's side when carrying/moving it? If so you have to let the kegerator sit for 24 hours before you plug it in.

      Simply moving it shouldn't have done anything. If you managed to somehow damage any of the lines.... that's another story.
