Hotel kitchen refrigeration
Banquet walk-ins, reach-ins behind the line, and bar back-bar coolers for South Loop and airport-corridor hotels. Dock and freight-elevator windows coordinated with engineering in advance.
Typical all-in: $385–$985 all-in
Bloomington runs on volume: a South Loop hotel breakfast line or a Mall of America food-court tenant cannot wait two days for a walk-in cooler diagnosis. We run a daily Bloomington commercial route covering airport hotels, food-court tenants, corporate cafeterias, and high-volume quick-serve — refrigeration, ice, cooking, and warewashing under one vendor.

Repair vs. replace
Refrigeration, ice, cooking, and warewashing on one invoice and one COI. Bloomington operators stop juggling three vendors and three sets of terms for a single kitchen.
Bloomington is a scheduled stop, not a detour. That is why morning calls in 55420 and the surrounding ZIPs usually earn a same-day window instead of a next-week appointment.
Compressor replacement, leak detection, evacuation, and recharge on R-404A, R-448A, and R-290 are performed by our own certified techs — never subcontracted out of Bloomington to a third party we cannot schedule.
Every Bloomington commercial job gets a written failure analysis and quoted parts-and-labor before work begins. The $199 diagnostic is credited to the repair when you approve it.
Brands serviced
If your equipment is down right now
Move perishables to a working unit or an ice-packed transport cooler before anything else. In Bloomington we can usually reach you the same day, but food safety runs on a shorter clock than any repair.
Write down the current internal temperature and when you first noticed the drift. Health inspectors and insurers both ask, and it tells the tech whether this is a defrost fault or a charge loss.
Confirm the breaker or disconnect is on, the condenser coil is not packed with grease or dust, and the door is sealing. Roughly a third of calls trace back to one of those three.
(651) 364-7466. Tell dispatch you are a Bloomington commercial account, name the equipment and brand, and we triage food-service failures ahead of routine work.
FAQs
Yes. We work tenant kitchens throughout the Mall of America and Southtown, including after-close windows so the repair does not interrupt selling hours. Mall COI requirements and vendor check-in are handled ahead of the visit.
Bloomington sits on our daily south-metro commercial route via 494. Calls placed before 11am almost always get a same-day window, and after-hours dispatch covers overnight breakfast-line failures.
All of them — 55420, 55425, 55431, 55435, 55437, and 55438, plus adjoining Richfield, Edina, and Eagan accounts on the same route.
A $199 commercial diagnostic covers the site visit, on-site failure analysis, and a written quote — and it is credited to the repair when you approve the work. Most Bloomington commercial repairs land between $285 and $985 all-in depending on equipment class. Sealed-system and compressor jobs run higher and are always quoted in writing first.
Yes — after-hours, weekend, and holiday dispatch for refrigeration, ice, and warewashing failures in Bloomington. A published after-hours premium applies and is confirmed in writing before the tech leaves the shop.
Yes. We issue COIs naming your property manager, hospitality group, hospital facilities office, or municipal account as additional-insured at no charge — typically the same business day. General liability and workers' comp are in force year-round; we can raise limits per contract on request.
First visit is card-on-file or COD. Once an account is established, we invoice Net-15 or Net-30 with itemized statements aligned to your accounting cycle. We accept POs from restaurant groups, hotel brands, property management firms, school districts, and city and county accounts. ACH and card payments both fine.
Yes — quarterly, semi-annual, and annual PM plans tiered by equipment count and equipment class. Every visit includes condenser cleaning, drain flushing, gasket and hinge inspection, electrical-tightness verification, controller and setpoint check, and a written report you can hand to insurers, health inspectors, or franchisors.
Every technician holds EPA Section 608 Universal certification covering R-404A, R-448A / R-449A (Solstice N40, Opteon XP40), R-290 hydrocarbon systems where code permits, and legacy R-22. Cooking-equipment techs are gas-certified for natural gas and LP on ranges, fryers, ovens, and combi-ovens.
Yes. We coordinate dock and freight-elevator windows in advance, badge in through hotel or hospital engineering, and work around banquet, service-window, and clinical-department timing. Overnight and pre-open service is available when a daytime window won't work.
Yes — after-hours, weekend, and holiday emergency dispatch is available for refrigeration, ice, and warewashing failures across the Twin Cities metro. A published after-hours premium applies and is confirmed in writing before the tech leaves the shop.
A 1-year written parts-and-labor warranty on every commercial repair — the same failure mode, on the same unit, within 12 months is covered at no additional charge. Some sealed-system components carry an extended manufacturer warranty on top; those terms are itemized on the invoice.
Yes. Truck-mounted reach-ins, undercounter units, generator-fed ice machines, and mobile prep tables are all serviceable — we typically shop-visit at your commissary or overnight parking rather than roadside so the unit can stabilize before diagnosis.
Yes. Written estimates are issued before any sealed-system, compressor, or major-component work. On request we provide inspector-ready documentation: repair scope, part numbers, refrigerant type and charge, and the date service restored the unit to spec.
