Comprehensive Commercial Refrigeration Services

Our technicians are certified to service all makes and models of commercial refrigeration equipment. We specialize in providing fast, reliable service to minimize your downtime and protect your inventory. Here is a deeper look at our commercial refrigeration services:

Walk-in Coolers & Freezers

These units are the backbone of any high-volume food service or grocery operation. A failure here can result in thousands of dollars in lost product. We provide comprehensive services to ensure your walk-in is always in peak condition.

• Installation: We handle everything from new construction build-outs to replacing an aging unit. Our team ensures correct sizing, proper sealing, and efficient component matching for long-term, low-cost operation.
• Repair: We are on call 24/7 for emergency walk-in repairs. Our technicians can quickly diagnose and fix all common issues, including compressor failure, refrigerant leaks, electrical problems, malfunctioning thermostats, and ice buildup on evaporator coils.
• Maintenance: A preventative maintenance plan is the best way to avoid disaster. Our service includes checking door seals and hinges, calibrating thermostats, cleaning condenser and evaporator coils, inspecting all motors and fans, and checking refrigerant levels.

Commercial Coolers & Reach-in Freezers

From the kitchen line to the front-of-house display, reach-in units are the workhorses of the industry. Because they are opened frequently, they are susceptible to unique stresses.

• Repair Services: Our team can quickly address common problems like the unit not holding temperature, frequent cycling, strange grinding or squealing noises, and broken door gaskets or hinges.
• Maintenance: We help you protect your investment. Regular maintenance, including coil cleaning and gasket inspections, ensures your reach-in units operate efficiently, saving you money on energy bills and preventing premature failure.
• Efficiency: We can help you select and install new ENERGY STAR® rated reach-in units that can significantly lower your restaurant’s or store’s monthly utility costs.

Commercial Ice Machines

A broken ice machine can stop a hospitality or healthcare business in its tracks. We service all major brands and types, including modular, under-counter, and dispenser units, to ensure you have a constant and clean ice supply.

• Repair: We handle all ice machine failures, including low or no ice production, water leaks, “dirty” or cloudy ice, and units that won’t harvest ice.
• Maintenance & Cleaning: An ice machine requires regular, deep cleaning to remain sanitary. Our maintenance service includes full sanitizing to prevent slime and mold growth, filter changes, and descaling to remove mineral buildup, which is a common cause of component failure.

Refrigerated Trailer Rentals

Sometimes you need cold storage on the go or as an emergency backup. Our refrigerated trailer rentals offer the perfect flexible solution.

• Ideal For Any Situation: Our trailers are perfect for catering companies, weddings, outdoor festivals, and community events. They are also a critical lifeline for businesses needing emergency backup during a walk-in cooler repair or seasonal overflow storage.
• Features: These convenient, user-friendly units can be programmed as either a cooler or a freezer, giving you on-demand cold storage right where you need it.

How Commercial Refrigeration Systems Work

You might be wondering, how do refrigeration systems work? Understanding the basic principles ensures you know why professional maintenance is vital for system longevity.

The majority of refrigerators work based on a principle known as vapor compression. A typical refrigeration system is composed of four basic components: the compressor, condenser, expansion device, and evaporator. A volatile fluid (refrigerant fluid) flows through the system where it is repeatedly converted into liquid and vapor forms.

• The Compressor: Compresses the superheated refrigerant vapor from low pressure to high pressure.
• The Condenser: A heat exchanger that operates at high pressure. It rejects heat from the refrigerant fluid to the environment, cooling the refrigerant from a vapor to a subcooled liquid state.
• The Expansion Device (Capillary Tube or Valve): Reduces the pressure of the liquid refrigerant, causing part of it to flash from liquid to vapor, which significantly reduces the fluid’s temperature.
• The Evaporator: The refrigerant fluid flows through this heat exchanger at a low temperature, allowing it to absorb energy (heat) from the refrigerated environment (the inside of the cooler), thus cooling the space.

This continuous cycle is what allows for the removal of heat, reducing the temperature inside the commercial unit. At Barber Heating & Air Refrigeration, we are dedicated to repairing or installing the perfect refrigeration system for your application.
