Here are some common signs you need refrigeration service:
Cooling Problems
Your walk-in cooler may be experiencing a lot of temperature fluctuations. It might seem like the system is overworking to maintain cool air, and you may also notice food and beverages stored in the cooler are not as cold as they should be. It’s important that your commercial refrigerator maintains the proper temperature to prevent spoiled food, waste and even food poisoning. It’s also a health department requirement. These changes in temperature could be caused by a malfunctioning compressor, a leak or even worn out door seals.
The Machine is Running Loudly
Walk-in refrigerators have a standard range of noise they emit, but loud and unexpected sounds could be a red flag that there’s a serious problem that needs fixing. Loud refrigeration units can be an indication of a problem with the system components like the compressor, or a malfunctioning fan.
Frost or Ice Buildup in Your Commercial Refrigeration Unit
Though walk-in coolers are meant to keep food and beverages chilled, frost and ice are a tell-tale sign something needs repairing. This can be caused by a leak or blocked air flow. It’s important to act quickly when this happens because ice and frost can destroy perishable foods in a hurry.
Unusual and Strange Odors
If your walk-in cooler smells like chemicals, it could be leaking refrigerant and/or coolant. This puts your food at risk of contamination and your staff and customers at risk of being poisoned.
Puddles on the Floors
If you’re discovering water and slippery floors around your walk-in cooler, you’ve got a problem that needs attention right away. Not only can pooling water cause workplace injuries from a slip-and-fall accident, but they can increase your electric bill. Wet floors are often an indication of a leak from a damaged seal in your walk-in cooler.
If you’re seeing any of these signs with your commercial refrigeration equipment you need to get professional refrigeration service right away.

As part of our preventative maintenance plan, you'll receive expert refrigeration services like these:
Evaporator coil and condenser cleaning
This is critical for your refrigeration system to run properly because it keeps your system at the needed temperature and helps you save on energy costs.
Cleaning the fan blades
When fan blades get dirty and aren't cleaned regularly, the dirt build up increases friction and decreases the effectiveness of the rotation and thus the air flow. This means increased wear on parts and a greater likelihood of bigger problems in the future.
Refrigerant level inspection
This is to check for possible leaks. Frequent monitoring of refrigerant levels helps us determine if something is amiss.
Compressor examination
Examining the compressor is the best way to prevent problems and costly repairs. Compressors are one of the biggest causes of refrigerator unit replacement.
Overhauling the ice maker
If not cleaned regularly, your ice maker can become ground zero for foodborne illness. Black mold can form on the ice and make your customers ill. Complete disassembly and a thorough cleaning is the best solution.
Evaluating the electrical components
To prevent sudden losses of power, we test all electrical connections and control wiring to guarantee everything is working as expected.
Inspection of refrigeration system parts
We examine every inch of your unit looking for wear and tear so we can stop small repairs from becoming big ones.
Cleaning the condensate drain lines
According to ACHRNews.com (Air Conditioning Heating and Refrigeration News), 90% of refrigeration unit service calls are to fix water leaks caused by stoped up condensate drain pipes.
Check door latches, gaskets and hinges
It’s absolutely critical that these refrigeration unit items seal properly to maintain ideal temperature control.
Temperature controls examination
We take a close look at the thermometer and settings. This helps prevent conditions from being too warm or too cold.
Evaluation of suction line insulation
We examine the suction line for collecting or dripping condensate. If this happens you'll suffer from water build up, which can cause water damage and workplace slip hazards.
Testing overall compressor functioning ability
With regular testing you'll have a healthy compressor that will last longer.
Our goal is to maintain your system so you only need refrigeration service when refrigeration repair is needed. Not only does our maintenance program help prevent costly repairs and sudden breakdowns, but it also saves our customers money on utility bills.

It’s also important that you have regular maintenance done to prevent the health inspector shutting you down, or accidentally giving your customers food poisoning and ruining your reputation. No one wants to make a diner sick or fail a health inspection because food wasn’t kept cold enough.
