Bitzer selects first Nordic service centre

GERMANY/SWEDEN: German refrigeration and air conditioning compressor manufacturer Bitzer has appointed Kompressorteknik Sweden AB as its first Authorised Service Centre (ASC) in the Nordic region.

Authorised Service Centres offer the repair of Bitzer compressors and have original Bitzer spare parts and oils permanently available in stock.
