Here are some common signs you need refrigeration service:

Cooling Problems
Your walk-in cooler needs to be able to maintain a constant temperature without fluctuations. Your cooling system might be 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 regulates the correct temperature to prevent food spoilage, waste and even food poisoning. It’s also a health department requirement. These changes in temperature could be caused by worn door seals, a leak or even a malfunctioning compressor.
Your Refrigeration Unit is Running Loudly
Commercial refrigeration units 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. Excessively 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 a Commercial Refrigerator
Though walk-in coolers are meant to keep food and beverages chilled, ice and frost are a tell-tale sign something needs repairing. This can be caused by a leak or blocked air flow. It’s critical to investigate right away when this happens because ice and frost can quickly ruin your perishable food.


Unusual and Strange Odors
Does your walk-in cooler have a chemical smell that didn't used to be there? It could be leaking coolant and refrigerant. This presents a serious risk of food contamination and puts your staff and customers at risk of being poisoned.
Wet Floors
If you’re noticing puddles and slippery floors around your walk-in cooler, you’ve got an immediate problem that needs attention as soon as possible. Not only can pooling water cause workplace injuries from a slip-and-fall accident, but they can raise your electric bill. Standing water on the floor is often a symptom of a leak from a damaged seal in your walk-in cooler.

You’ll want to get refrigeration service right away if you’re finding any of the above symptoms with your commercial refrigeration equipment.

Here are some commercial refrigeration services we provide with our preventative maintenance program:
Cleaning the evaporator coil and condenser
Critical to the smooth running of your refrigeration system, it keeps your system at the proper temperature and saves on your electrical bills.
Professional fan blade cleaning
Dirty blades cause the unit to work harder because the blades don’t rotate as well when they’re covered in grease and grime. This means increased wear on parts and a greater likelihood of bigger problems in the future.
Refrigerant level inspection
We do this to look for possible leaks. Regular monitoring of refrigerant levels helps us determine if something is amiss.
Compressor examination
Looking at the compressor is the best way to avoid costly repairs and prevent problems to begin with. Compressors are one of the biggest causes of refrigerator unit replacement.
Ice maker overhaul
Ice makers are often guilty of spreading foodborne illness if they’re not cleaned regularly. Black mold can grow on the ice and make your diners seriously ill. Complete disassembly and a thorough cleaning is the best solution.
Electric component evaluation
To prevent sudden losses of power, we test all electrical connections and control wiring to ensure they're all working properly.
Refrigeration system parts inspection
We examine every inch of your unit looking for wear and tear so we can prevent small repairs from turning into a big ones.
Clean condensate drain lines
According to ACHRNews.com (Air Conditioning Heating and Refrigeration News), 90% of refrigeration unit service calls are to address water leaks caused by blocked condensate drain lines.
Examine door latches, gaskets and hinges
It’s vital that these refrigeration unit components close properly to maintain proper temperature control.
Temperature controls examination
We take a close look at the settings and thermometer. 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 leads to workplace slip hazards and water damage.
Testing overall compressor functioning ability
This helps extend the life of your refrigeration system.
It’s our goal to maintain your system so you only need refrigeration service when refrigeration repair is needed. In addition to preventing costly repairs and sudden breakdowns, our maintenance plan actually saves our customers money on utility bills. When your refrigeration units are operating as they’re designed to, they use less energy and they don’t work as hard.
It’s also crucial that regular maintenance is performed to prevent shut-downs by the health department, or accidentally spreading foodborne illness to your customers. The last thing you want is to make a diner sick or fail a health inspection because food wasn’t kept cold enough.
