Here are some common signs you need refrigeration service:
Cooling Problems
Your walk-in cooler may be experiencing a lot of temperature fluctuations. Your cooling unit might be overworking to maintain cool air, and you may also notice food and beverages stored in the cooler are warmer than they should be. It’s important that your commercial refrigerator regulates the correct 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.
Your Refrigeration Unit is Running Loudly
Commercial refrigeration units will make a normal amount of noise, but loud and unfamiliar sounds could be a an indication that there’s a serious problem that needs fixing. Excessively loud refrigeration units can be an indication of a problem with critical 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 restaurant meal ingredients chilled, ice and frost are a tell-tale sign something isn’t working properly. 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 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 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 noticing puddles and slippery floors around your walk-in cooler, you’ve got an immediate problem that needs attention right away. Puddles on the floor are an accident waiting to happen. They represent an increased liability and they can increase your utility bill. Wet floors are often a sign of a leak from a damaged seal in your walk-in cooler.
You’ll want to get refrigeration service as soon as possible if you’re noticing any of the above symptoms with your commercial refrigeration equipment.

As part of our preventative maintenance plan, you'll receive expert refrigeration services like these:
Condenser and evaporator coil cleaning
Critical to the smooth running of your refrigeration system, it keeps your system at the needed temperature and helps you save 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 results in increased wear on components and a greater likelihood of more expensive problems in the future.
Refrigerant level inspection
We do this to look for possible leaks. Regular monitoring of refrigerant levels helps us detect if something is amiss.
Examining the compressor
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.
Overhauling the ice maker
If not cleaned regularly, your ice maker can become ground zero for foodborne illness. Black mold can grow on the ice and make your customers 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 guarantee everything is working as expected.
Refrigeration unit parts inspection
We examine every inch of your system looking for wear and tear so we can stop small repairs from becoming big ones.
Clean condensate drain lines
ACHRNews.com (Air Conditioning Heating and Refrigeration News) reports 90 percent of refrigeration unit service calls are to address water leaks caused by stoped up condensate drain pipes.
Check door latches, gaskets and hinges
It’s absolutely 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.
Inspecting the 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 water damage and workplace slip hazards.
Testing overall compressor functioning ability
With regular testing you'll have a healthy compressor that will last longer.
It’s our goal to maintain your system so you only need refrigeration service for necessary refrigeration repair. Not only does our maintenance program help prevent costly repairs and sudden breakdowns, but it also saves our customers money on utility bills. When machines operate as they should, they use less energy and they don’t work as hard.
