Walk-In Cooler & Freezer Repair
When a Walk-In Cooler or Freezer won’t hold temperature, we check the Compressor, Condenser, defrost system and Controls to find the cause. We service Copeland, Heatcraft, Bitzer, Russell, Krack, Kolpak and Tecumseh equipment, plus most other brands, including systems installed by others. More on Refrigeration & Cold Storage.
Refrigerant Leak Inspections
We perform refrigerant leak inspections and fill out the reports required under the California Refrigerant Management Program (RMP), where they apply.

A Maintenance & Service Agreement puts your Walk-Ins, Freezers and Cold Rooms on a regular schedule set around your equipment and operating hours. Agreement customers get a separate 24-hour service line, preferred rates, a one-year parts and labor warranty on repairs and waived truck charges. See Maintenance & Service Agreements.

Common Questions
What maintenance does a Cold Room or Walk-In Freezer need?
A maintenance visit checks the Condenser and Evaporator Coils, Fans, defrost, the drain line, door gaskets, refrigerant charge and Compressors. On systems that require them, we also do the California RMP leak inspection. More on Refrigeration & Cold Storage.
How often should Commercial Refrigeration be serviced?
It depends on the equipment and how hard it runs. Most systems need 2 to 4 visits a year, and we set the schedule in your Maintenance & Service Agreement.
Why is our Walk-In Cooler not getting cold?
Usually it’s a dirty Condenser Coil, an iced or dirty Evaporator Coil, a failed Evaporator Fan Motor, a defrost problem or low refrigerant from a leak. In a warehouse or packing room, also check that doors and gaskets seal and that stacked product is not blocking the Evaporator. We find the cause before replacing parts.
Why is our Walk-In Evaporator freezing up?
Most often the defrost has failed: a heater, timer, termination switch or a stuck Relay. A failed Evaporator Fan, low refrigerant or a clogged drain can also ice the coil, and so can warm, moist air getting in past a door or gasket.
What temperature should a Cold Room be?
It depends on what you store. Walk-In Coolers for food usually run 35 to 38°F, and the food must stay at 41°F or below. Freezers should hold 0°F or below, and we set produce rooms for the crop in them.
Do you repair Walk-Ins and Freezers another company installed?
Yes. We repair and maintain Walk-Ins, Freezers and Cold Rooms across Sonoma and Napa counties, including Copeland, Heatcraft, Bitzer, Russell, Krack, Kolpak and Tecumseh equipment, plus most other brands.
