Essential Refrigeration Maintenance: Keeping Your Equipment Running Efficiently

This client had their maintenance team work on their Cold Plunge unit, which cools the pool water down to 35°F. They couldn’t figure out the problem, so they kept pumping refrigerant into the unit. It was a simple fix; it needed a deep maintenance. The coil was very thick, so we cleaned it with a pressure washer and recovered a little refrigerant. We got them back up and running. I can’t stress it enough: all refrigeration equipment needs maintenance. It needs to be able to breathe, or you will force thousands to tens of thousands of dollars of equipment to overwork, and then parts start going south. Maintenance is easy and very cost-effective! Don’t wait until you need a repair!

The Importance of Full Breakdown Ice Machine Maintenance

Before and after pictures of an ice machine: A client called us to perform maintenance on an ice machine. There are two types of ice machine maintenance: standard maintenance and full breakdown maintenance. Clients often confuse the cheaper standard ice machine maintenance for a full breakdown. They opt for the cheaper quote, which includes a chemical wash that essentially involves dumping some acid and running sanitizer after a cycle. The second option, a full breakdown, entails disassembling all parts that can be taken apart, scrubbing them, washing in acid, and sanitizing. Internal ice machine parts are also scrubbed, and various cycles with acid and sanitizer are run before and after the machine is put back together. A chemical standard wash takes about 1-1.5 hours, while a full breakdown takes about 6-8 hours, especially if it’s our first time because we clean even places that have never been cleaned before. We have many pictures of this process, which we will show you, rated G. Remember, these are the machines that run water and make ice that we eat! Don’t settle for cheap maintenance; prioritize quality craftsmanship and take pride in your clean ice!

I run a restaurant, bakery and deli. We have 3 large walk in refrigerators, 2 freezers and about 10 other refrigerated units. It’s a big operation and I have used several companies over the years. I came across American Cool Heat & commercial refrigeration about 4 years ago. They are the most thorough and honest company I have worked with in 19 years of operation. I love that they warranty their work and explain everything to me. The owner, William, had me go on the roof with him to check out our refrigeration rack and explain each part, I made videos for reference. Our equipment was out dated and needed to be serviced. He showed me several areas where poor work had been done by other companies. His techs are friendly, efficient and professionally trained, I never have to guess or ask questions, they always clearly explain everything to me and give me some options depending on the job. They are replacing a defrost timer and condensing fan in my walk in freezer today. Whenever I call for service, they come the same day- even emergencies on weekends. Can’t say enough good things about this company. Ask for William!

We have a large business in Palm Springs. William and his team came highly recommended. From day one, they did the impossible. This includes rebuilding a 20-ton HVAC unit on our roof that was written off by other companies. Competitors wanted to remove it which included a crane, insurances, and of course the replacement cost. William, Frank, and the team assessed the unit, and gave us a 90% success rate on a repair vs. a replacement. They succeeded. From then on, they’ve handled all or our equipment… on time, up front, and always professional.

American CoolHeat Air & Commercial Refrigeration is a service we’ve used twice now. Their technicians were very courteous, respectful and were sensitive to the needs of my 91-year old mother, who is on a fixed income.They arrived promptly, worked for hours and hours on our AC in the heat. I appreciate their honesty and willingness to go the extra mile. What’s even nicer is they always say, “God bless you.” before they hang up the phone. That alone will assure that they will continue to get our business!
