Frequently asked questions
How fast can you get to a down walk-in cooler in the Twin Cities?
Restaurant walk-ins are dispatched as food-service priority — most Minneapolis and Saint Paul addresses see a same-day window when the call lands before 2pm, and after-hours emergency service is available. Product-on-a-clock jobs skip the queue.
Do you work on the sealed system in-house?
Yes — EPA Section 608 Universal certified. We do our own recovery, brazing, deep evacuation, and factory-spec recharge on Copeland Scroll condensing units, Heatcraft evaporators, and Bohn/Larkin sealed platforms. We do not sub out refrigeration.
Which walk-in brands do you service?
Heatcraft, Bohn/Larkin, Copeland, Tecumseh, Bally, Russell, Master-Bilt, Norlake, Kolpak, and Amerikooler. Both self-contained and remote condensing-unit configurations, indoor and rooftop.
What does walk-in cooler repair cost?
$199 commercial diagnostic (credited toward the repair when approved). Most Twin Cities walk-in repairs land $350–$1,800 all-in depending on part — a fan motor, contactor, or defrost heater lands at the low end; compressor or evaporator coil replacement runs higher. Written 1-year parts-and-labor warranty on every job.
Do you offer restaurant service contracts?
Yes — quarterly PM contracts for restaurants, bars, and grocery covering coil cleaning, refrigerant-charge verification, door-gasket inspection, drain-line clearing, and priority dispatch when something does fail. COI available same-day.
Are you licensed and insured for commercial work?
Fully insured ($2M general liability), EPA 608 Universal certified for all sealed-system refrigerant work, and background-checked technicians. COI available same-day for property managers, landlords, and building GCs.
