Commercial Refrigeration Installation & Replacement in Snellville, GA

When replacing your refrigeration is the right call

Most refrigeration can be repaired many times. These are the signs that a unit has reached the point where the money is better spent on a new one.

• The compressor or sealed system has failed on an older unit, and the repair would cost around half the price of a new one, or more
• The same part keeps failing, season after season
• The electricity bill keeps climbing with no change to your hours or how much you store
• The box will not hold 41°F on a busy day, even with clean coils, sound gaskets and a working defrost
• The system runs on R-22, a refrigerant no longer produced in the US
• The menu, the floor plan or the volume has changed, and the equipment no longer fits the job

• Walk-in coolers and freezers

  The refrigeration system on its own when the box, panels and doors are sound, or the whole walk-in when they are not.

• Reach-in refrigerators and freezers

  Single, double and triple-door units for the line, the bar and back of house.

• Display cases and merchandisers

  Open and glass-door cases, where the store’s own air works against the case all day.

• Condensing units and remote systems

  The condensing unit does the work, and it is where most of the efficiency is won or lost.

Measured first, so the replacement is the right one

Before anything is replaced, the existing system is measured: pressures, temperatures, amperage, and the condition of the coils, the gaskets and the box. That is what tells you whether a unit is finished or one repair away from more good years.

When a unit is worn out, those measurements also size what replaces it: the box, the load, how often the door opens and the heat around the condenser. A replacement sized to how you actually use it runs less and lasts longer than one matched to the old nameplate.

Repair or replace: what points each way

No single factor decides it. This is how the findings from a visit usually read.

What a refrigeration replacement quote depends on

Several of these are only clear once someone has seen the equipment and the space.

• The type and size of the equipment, and whether the box stays or goes
• Where it sits: a rooftop, a basement or a tight kitchen changes the work
• Whether the existing refrigerant lines, electrical supply and drains can be reused
• The refrigerant the new system uses
• What has to come out before the new equipment goes in
• Timing: a planned replacement can be scheduled around your hours; a replacement after a failure works to the clock

Replacement planned around your operation

• Restaurants

  A walk-in replacement is planned so product can be moved and service carries on, rather than forced on you by a failure on a Friday night.

• Grocery and convenience stores

  Cases and condensing units replaced in an order that keeps product cold while the work is done.

• Schools

  Kitchen refrigeration replaced while the building is empty, so the work stays clear of meal periods.
