Common Commercial Refrigeration Equipment Types and Our Approach to Repair

Commercial Refrigerator Repair

Walk-In Cooler Repair: Maintaining Temperature and Avoiding Downtime

Walk-in coolers are essential for storing large quantities of perishable food in commercial kitchens. However, temperature fluctuations, fan motor malfunctions, or leaks can lead to spoiled inventory. Our technicians address these common problems by inspecting evaporator coils, compressors, and door gaskets to ensure your walk-in cooler maintains a stable temperature. We perform necessary repairs to keep your cooler operating at peak efficiency, avoiding costly breakdowns.

Reach-In Refrigerator Repair: Ensuring Efficient Operation

Reach-in refrigerators are often used in restaurants and commercial settings to store ingredients within easy reach. These units may face issues like leaking water, door gaskets wearing out, or evaporator coils freezing up. Our team quickly identifies the root cause of the problem and provides fast repair services to get your refrigerator back to optimal performance. We also offer regular maintenance to prevent future breakdowns and keep your refrigerator running smoothly.

Undercounter Refrigerator Repair: Compact Solutions for Commercial Kitchens

Undercounter refrigerators provide space-saving solutions for commercial kitchens but can encounter issues like poor cooling or blocked air vents. Common causes include a malfunctioning fan motor or damaged door gaskets. Our technicians are skilled at diagnosing these problems and performing the necessary repairs to restore proper function. Whether cleaning air filters or fixing mechanical components, we ensure your refrigeration equipment stays efficient.

Display Refrigerator Repair: Keeping Products Cool and Appealing

Display refrigerators are critical for showcasing beverages and food to your customers. If your commercial refrigerator suffers from temperature fluctuations, compressor issues, or door leaks, it can affect the quality of the products and your sales. We repair malfunctioning compressors, replace faulty door gaskets, and fix broken lighting to ensure your display fridge remains functional and appealing to customers.

Common Problems with Commercial Refrigerators and How We Fix Them

At Same Day Appliance Repair, we understand the challenges of maintaining commercial refrigeration equipment. Our technicians are well-versed in diagnosing and resolving common issues with commercial refrigerators, ensuring fast, reliable repairs.

1. Refrigerator Not Cooling Properly

How We Fix It:
When a commercial refrigerator isn’t cooling efficiently, we check for problems with the evaporator coils, compressor, or thermostat. We clean the evaporator coils to restore proper airflow if they are frozen or dirty. We also inspect and replace the compressor or thermostat to ensure your refrigerator maintains the correct temperature.

2. Excessive Frost or Ice Build-Up

How We Fix It:
Faulty defrost systems, or damaged door gaskets can cause excessive frost inside your refrigeration equipment. Our technicians inspect the defrost heater and thermostat to ensure proper defrost cycles. We also replace damaged door gaskets to prevent warm air from entering, which causes frost build-up.

3. Refrigerator Leaking Water

How We Fix It:
Leaks in a commercial refrigerator are often due to clogged drain lines or a faulty water inlet valve. We clear drain lines to ensure proper water flow and check the water inlet valve for damage. If the valve is defective, we replace it to prevent further leaks.

4. Refrigerator Making Loud Noises

How We Fix It:
Unusual noises can indicate problems with the fan motor, compressor, or evaporator fan. Our team identifies the noise source and replaces any failing components, ensuring your refrigerator operates quietly and efficiently.

5. Refrigerator Door Not Sealing Properly

How We Fix It:
A faulty door gasket can cause temperature inconsistencies and increased energy costs. We inspect and replace damaged door gaskets to ensure a proper seal, which keeps cold air in and prevents costly repairs down the line.

6. Refrigerator Has Power Issues

How We Fix It:
If your commercial refrigerator won’t turn on or keeps shutting off, we start by checking the power supply, thermostat, and control board. We troubleshoot electrical issues and replace defective components to ensure consistent power and operation.

7. Temperature Fluctuations

How We Fix It:
Inconsistent temperatures in commercial refrigerators can lead to food spoilage. We check the compressor, thermostat, and fan motor to ensure proper temperature regulation. We provide immediate repairs to restore consistent cooling if any component is faulty.

Signs Your Commercial Fridge Needs Repair – When and Why to Call Us

Knowing early signs of commercial fridge issues can save you from costly repairs and keep your business running. Here’s a guide from our techs on when and why to call us now:

Unusual Smells: Weird or bad smells in your fridge are a big deal. Often, these smells are from mold buildup or clogged drain hoses. If you smell something strange, call us now. Mold and bacteria growth can be a health hazard and food safety risk. We’ll inspect, clean, and sanitize your unit to make sure your storage is safe.

Water Leaks or Water Pooling: Call us if you see water around your commercial fridge. Leaks are usually from worn-out door gaskets, clogged drain lines, or loose hose connections. Ignoring leaks can cause water damage, slip hazards, and equipment corrosion. We’ll diagnose and repair the leak quickly to prevent further damage to your kitchen or storage area.

Temperature Fluctuations or Inconsistent Cooling: A commercial fridge that can’t hold temperature is a big deal. Call us now if your unit feels warm or the temperature is fluctuating. This is usually from a faulty thermostat, compressor, or condenser. Consistent cooling is key to food safety, so our techs will get your unit up and running fast.

Excessive Frost or Ice Buildup: When you see frost or ice building up inside or around the freezer compartments, it’s a sign of poor air circulation or a failing defrost system. Excess frost will reduce storage space, cause freezer burn, and increase energy consumption. Call us to inspect and fix these issues before they worsen and keep your fridge efficient and your products safe.

Strange Noises: Weird sounds like buzzing, rattling, or clicking usually mean failing components like fans, compressors, or motors. If you hear these sounds, call us sooner rather than later. These sounds mean the fridge is overworking, will increase your utility bill, and will lead to bigger problems. Our techs will find the source and repair or replace the failing parts to get your fridge running smoothly and efficiently again.

Call us now, and we’ll prevent further damage, ensure food safety, and extend the life of your commercial fridge. Contact us.

When to Choose Repair or Replacement for Your Commercial Refrigerator – Advice from Our Technicians

From working closely with our clients, we know deciding between repairing or replacing a commercial refrigerator is a big decision for any business. Here’s our rule of thumb: if repair costs exceed 50% of the price of a new unit, or if your fridge or freezer is over ten years old, a replacement might be the better investment.

Upgrading to a newer model often means fewer breakdowns, reduced repair needs, and improved energy efficiency—benefits that add up to significant savings in the long run. When we assess your unit, we’ll take a close look at both the total repair costs and the overall condition of your appliance. Our technicians will provide an honest recommendation to help you make the best choice for your business.

FAQs

How soon can a technician come to fix my commercial refrigerator?

You can schedule an appointment as early as the same day at a convenient time.

How much does a diagnostic cost for a commercial refrigerator?

Our diagnostic fee is $89.

Do you use original parts for commercial refrigerator repairs?

We exclusively use original parts from trusted suppliers, backed by warranties, starting at 3 months. This ensures quality and reliability, which is one of the reasons why our clients keep calling us back.

What will it cost to repair my commercial refrigerator?

Unfortunately, it is impossible to answer this question until a professional technician will diagnose and assess the labor and parts needed. Special equipment is frequently required during the diagnosis. Also, the parts that are usually not visible to the client require inspection. This is why knowing the whole picture over the phone is difficult.

Only after special diagnosing procedures are performed can the exact issues be detected. After that, we can find the precise price of the part needed and contact the supplier using the Brand and the model number. The total repair cost will include labor and the price of the part.

How long does repairing a commercial refrigerator after diagnosis take?

In most cases, our technicians have the necessary parts in their vehicles for the most frequent issues. In such a case, the repair can be finished on the same day. However, keeping all the parts at hand is impossible for such a wide variety of commercial refrigerators. Nonetheless, our suppliers can provide the needed parts within 2 to 3 days. As soon as we get the part, we can finish the repair.

Do I still pay the service fee if I agree to the repair?

No, the service fee is waived if you approve the repair.

Do you provide a warranty on your labor?

Yes, our standard labor warranty is 3 months. In warranty for seal system repairs such as compressor, condenser, and evaporator coil repairs, we offer a 1-year warranty.

Are your technicians certified to work with refrigerants?

Absolutely. Our technicians hold a universal EPA-608 certification and have hands-on experience with refrigerants like R404, R134, R600, R290, R407, R12, R22, and others commonly used in commercial refrigeration.

All of our commercial refrigerators are working fine - do we still need maintenance?

Yes, planned routine maintenance ensures longevity and optimal work of your equipment. If you take a flashlight and pay attention to the condition of your coils in the refrigerator, you will frequently see a thick layer of dust accumulated inside your fridge. This means the compressor is constantly overworking and overheating, which means the oil is rapidly losing its lubrication properties. Just this problem alone drastically minimizes the longevity of your equipment. Don't wait for your commercial refrigerator to break down. Give us a call and schedule routine maintenance. It will help you save on future repairs.

My refrigerator is old. Should I still consider repairs?

If the exterior of the refrigerator and its interior elements are in a proper condition, without rust and cracks, and are all intact, then yes. Although the unit might be old, it makes sense to repair it because the repair cost will be cheaper than buying a new unit.

I don’t know the brand or model of my fridge. Can you still repair it?

Absolutely! Our skilled technicians are experienced with all major brands and models. And even with a lost information sticker or documentation, they can determine the brand and model by examining your unit.

Another company diagnosed the problem but didn’t repair it. Can you take over?

We can not rely on the diagnostic made by another company due to liability issues and our professionalism. The appliance repair industry is full of companies that consist of technicians who lack experience and may be unable to fix your fridge. Our company values transparency while communicating with the customer. After our technician diagnoses the issue, the client will know the exact reason for the breakdown, the parts that need replacing, or the maintenance required. If the previous company did not provide a clear picture of the diagnosis and the repair plan, we recommend asking for your money back.

What does the final repair price include?

We are fully transparent with the clients when calculating the final price. The technician always explains the reason for the issue and a plan of action. The repair will consist of labor needed for a particular problem and parts if needed. Customers always clearly understand how much they will be charged before agreeing to the repair.

My location isn’t listed on your website. Can you still help?

You can always give us a call. We will do our best to find the closest technician to you.

Can you repair during our off-peak hours, like early morning or late at night?

Of course! We are ready to accommodate your particular schedule, such as when the employees or customers of your business are absent.
