PS5 Liquid Metal Replacement
Although this page focuses on Xbox Series X cleaning, we also perform advanced thermal upgrades and maintenance on PlayStation consoles. PS5 liquid metal replacement is a specialty service we offer to improve heat transfer on PS5 and PS5 Pro systems that are experiencing elevated temperatures or thermal throttling. Our technicians carefully remove the stock thermal interface, inspect the die and heat sink, and apply a safe, factory-grade liquid metal solution when appropriate. We always test thermal conductivity and system stability to ensure PS5 liquid metal replacement reduces temperatures and eliminates performance issues without causing electrical shorts or corrosion.
Console Cleaning and Dust Removal
Dust buildup is one of the most common causes of loud fan noise, overheating, and random shutdowns. Our Xbox Series X cleaning service in Coquitlam includes a thorough disassembly, compressed-air dust removal, vacuuming of vents, and detailed fan cleaning. For PS5, PS5 Slim, and PS5 Pro consoles we perform similar procedures including PS5 fan cleaning, dust removal from the heat sink, and thermal paste inspection. Regular cleaning improves airflow, reduces acoustic noise, and prevents heat from pooling around sensitive components.
Console Overheating Repair
Overheating can present as loud fans, reduced performance, graphical glitches, or unexpected shutdowns. Our console overheating repair workflow begins with diagnostic testing: we monitor temperatures under load, inspect fan speeds, and run stress tests to reproduce the issue. For Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S we inspect the internal cooling assembly, replace worn fans if necessary, and reflow or replace thermal paste on critical chips. For PlayStation systems, we combine thorough cleaning with targeted repairs like PS5 liquid metal replacement or thermal pad replacement when required.
Real Repair Example
A PS5 was brought into our Coquitlam shop after the owner experienced frequent overheating, loud fan noise, and random shutdowns during 60–120 minute sessions. Diagnostic steps included temperature logging, visual inspection, and load testing. We found heavy dust accumulation in the air channels, a partially obstructed intake fan, and old, dried thermal paste on the SoC. The repair included full disassembly, comprehensive dust removal, PS5 fan cleaning, replacement of the thermal paste with a high-quality compound, and a check for correct heat sink seating. We also inspected the liquid metal area for any signs of prior tampering; in this case the system had not been liquid-metal treated previously. After reassembly and stress testing, the PS5 stayed well within safe temperature ranges, fan noise was reduced by roughly 50%, and the random shutdowns disappeared. The customer reported restored performance and quieter operation—typical outcomes when both dust removal and proper thermal management are applied.
Signs Your Console Needs Service
- Loud or high-pitched fan noise during light use
- Overheating warnings or excessive internal temperatures
- Random shutdowns or reboots while gaming
- Reduced frame rates or performance drops in demanding titles
- Visible dust buildup around vents and ports
If you’re in Coquitlam, Burnaby, Port Moody, Port Coquitlam, New Westminster or Maple Ridge and notice any of the above, bring your console in for a full inspection. Early intervention prevents more costly board-level repairs.
Why Thermal Management Matters
Thermal management affects longevity and performance. Poor heat transfer leads to thermal throttling—when a CPU or GPU reduces clock speeds to avoid damage—which results in stuttering and poorer graphics performance. Proper thermal management includes routine PS5 fan cleaning or Xbox Series X fan maintenance, timely dust removal, replacement of degraded thermal paste, and, when appropriate, advanced solutions like PS5 liquid metal replacement. We balance thermal improvements with safety and long-term reliability to avoid voiding warranties or creating new failure modes.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I have my Xbox Series X cleaned?
We recommend a professional cleaning every 12–18 months for typical home environments. Homes with pets or heavy smoking may need cleaning every 6–9 months to prevent excessive dust buildup and performance issues.
Can you perform PS5 liquid metal replacement on my PS5 Pro?
Yes. We offer PS5 liquid metal replacement on PS5, PS5 Slim, and PS5 Pro systems when it’s appropriate. We evaluate each console for warranty considerations and discuss potential benefits and risks before proceeding.
My Xbox Series S is louder than usual — is that dust or a failing fan?
Loud noise is usually caused by dust buildup or worn bearings in the fan. We perform fan cleaning and, if necessary, replace the fan assembly. Diagnostics will determine whether cleaning alone is sufficient.
Will cleaning my console void the warranty?
Opening a console can affect manufacturer warranties. We explain warranty implications before performing services. For many out-of-warranty units, our cleaning and thermal services are safe and effective. We also offer non-invasive cleaning options for units under warranty where possible.
Do you repair consoles brought from New Westminster or Maple Ridge?
Yes. We serve customers from across the region including New Westminster, Maple Ridge, Burnaby, Port Moody and Port Coquitlam. Drop off or contact us to arrange a service appointment.
