Commercial & Residential Refrigeration
Reach-in running but not cooling? Ice machine making one batch and stopping? Walk-in growing ice on the evaporator? We repair commercial refrigeration across Manhattan and Brooklyn - reach-ins, walk-ins, ice machines, wine coolers - and the residential fridges in your break room too. We move fast, because a failing cooler means spoiled product - many repairs are finished the same day the parts are in hand. Real diagnosis first, honest estimates before any work.

Common Problems
The classic call we get: "the lights are on, but the fridge is not functioning." On True and Turbo Air reach-ins that usually points to the compressor, its start relay, or the temperature control - True thermostats fail often enough that we carry the diagnosis logic in our heads. A P1 code on a True display is the thermostat sensor. We test before we replace anything.
A machine that makes one or two batches and stops is telling you about water, not ice: clogged water filters, scale in the fill tube, a float switch reading empty. Hollow or thin cubes point at low refrigerant or a leaking hot-gas valve. Hoshizaki, Scotsman, Manitowoc - each has its own habits, and we know them.
When a walk-in loses part of its R-404A charge, the blend itself changes - pressures look "fine" but the coil ices over and the box runs warm. Topping it off makes it worse. The right fix is finding the leak, full recovery, vacuum, and a fresh charge. Door gaskets and defrost settings get checked too - half of icing problems start there.
If the health inspector's thermometer reads above 41F, that's a violation - and spoiled product on top. Display and deli cases usually come down to condenser airflow, evaporator fans, or a defrost cycle set wrong by the last "specialist." We set controllers the way the manufacturer intended.
What We Service
True, Turbo Air, Victory, Beverage-Air. Compressors, start components, thermostats and door gaskets - the everyday workhorses of NYC kitchens, repaired without drama.
Hoshizaki KM-series, Scotsman, Manitowoc. Scale and water problems first, then floats, harvest valves and sealed systems. We tell you when a cleaning will do and when it won't.
Custom boxes need careful hands: leak search, recovery and recharge done by the book, defrost timers and door heaters sorted. R-22 boxes retrofitted to modern refrigerant when the time comes.
Undercounter units, bottle coolers, kegerators. Compact sealed systems, R-290 units serviced with the right equipment - no shortcuts with flammable refrigerants.
Dual-zone units, built-in columns, restaurant cellars. Evaporator leaks, boards and fans - and honest advice when a unit isn't worth saving.
Reach-in and chest freezers on R-404A. Frost patterns tell the story: we read them before opening a single valve.
Commercial Experience
A juice bar's Turbo Air reach-in died - "lights on, nothing cooling." Compressor plus a damaged power cable. One estimate, parts included, a year of warranty on the work, and the bar kept trading.
A building engineer told us his ice machine needed a "condenser pump." We opened the manual: that part doesn't exist in this unit - there's a circulation pump. That's why we diagnose before quoting parts, even when someone else already has.
Buildings are their own world: COI on file before we arrive, tech's name on the list at the front desk, work scheduled before the kitchen opens. We do this routinely - your building won't slow us down.
Multi-location accounts welcome: when a company called about three failing units across Brooklyn and Manhattan, one team handled all of them. One point of contact, one invoice if you want it.
