Our Refrigeration Process
Emergency Response
For refrigeration emergencies, we respond same-day. Every hour your cooler is down, you're losing inventory. We treat refrigeration failures as urgent.
Diagnosis & Repair
We diagnose the root cause — not just the symptom. Common issues include refrigerant leaks, compressor failure, thermostat malfunction, and evaporator coil icing.
Installation & Upgrades
For new installations, we handle everything: equipment selection, electrical connections, refrigerant piping, and temperature controls. As electrical contractors, we don't need to call a separate trade for power.
Maintenance Programs
Regular maintenance keeps refrigeration running efficiently and prevents the emergency calls. We clean coils, check refrigerant, test controls, and identify potential problems.

Commercial Refrigeration FAQs
My walk-in cooler isn't holding temperature. Is this an emergency?
Yes. If your cooler temperature is rising above safe food storage temperatures (41°F for most products), you're at risk of losing inventory and violating health codes. Call us immediately at (502) 921-3777 for same-day emergency service.
How often should commercial refrigeration be maintained?
Quarterly maintenance is recommended for most commercial refrigeration equipment. High-use equipment (restaurant walk-ins, display cases) benefits from monthly coil cleaning and inspection.
Can you install the electrical for new refrigeration equipment?
Yes — that's one of our advantages. As licensed electrical contractors, we install the dedicated circuits, disconnects, and power connections your refrigeration equipment needs. No need to hire a separate electrician.
Do you handle refrigerant regulations?
Yes. Our technicians are EPA 608 certified for handling refrigerants. We comply with all federal regulations regarding refrigerant recovery, recycling, and documentation.
