Andrew’s 5-Step Emergency Refrigeration Response

Step 1

Call and Describe the Emergency

Call Andrew’s and tell us what’s happening with your equipment. Share your business location, equipment type, and any warning signs, such as rising temperatures, alarms, or a complete shutdown. Also let us know about any site-access requirements so we can assess your service needs and explain the next steps.

Step 2

Get Immediate Guidance While a Technician Is Dispatched

While waiting for service, keep cooler and freezer doors closed to help maintain temperatures. Record any alarms or temperature readings, and move perishable inventory to working backup refrigeration when appropriate. If you need temporary cold storage, we also offer a freezer truck for rental during emergency calls. Avoid repeatedly resetting equipment or attempting repairs yourself.

Step 3

Diagnose the Refrigeration Failure On-Site

When our technician arrives, we’ll inspect your equipment to identify what failed. We’ll check the relevant components, often including items like the refrigerant system or temperature controls. We’ll explain what we find and review the recommended repair and expected cost before proceeding.

Step 4

Repair or Stabilize the System

We’ll make the necessary repairs to restore cooling when possible. If the system needs additional parts or work, we’ll explain what’s still required and whether we can safely stabilize the equipment until the repair is complete.

Step 5

Verify Operation and Document Next Steps

After the repair, we’ll test the system and check its temperature controls. We’ll also review the work completed and explain any recommended follow-up service.

Commercial Refrigeration Emergencies We Repair

From walk-in freezers to refrigerated display cases, different equipment failures call for different repairs. Our commercial refrigeration services cover the following equipment:

Walk-In Cooler & Freezer Emergencies

When a walk-in cooler or freezer stops maintaining temperature, large amounts of stored inventory can be at risk. Our technicians handle walk-in freezer and commercial walk-in cooler repairs, including compressors, refrigerant leaks, electrical controls, and airflow problems, to restore proper cooling.

Reach-In & Display Refrigeration

When a reach-in refrigerator, freezer, display case, or prep table stops cooling, you may need to remove products from service before they spoil. We troubleshoot temperature fluctuations and cooling failures to get these units operating properly again.

Commercial Ice Machines

An ice machine that stops producing ice or struggles to keep up with demand can quickly affect beverage service. We provide 24/7 commercial ice machine repair to address production failures, mechanical issues, and unexpected shutdowns so you can restore a reliable ice supply.

Signs You Need Emergency Refrigeration Repair

  • Cooler or freezer struggles to maintain its set temperature, putting stored products at risk.

  • Refrigeration system shuts down unexpectedly or won’t turn back on.

  • Compressor or condensing unit fails to start, runs continuously, or shuts off unexpectedly.

  • Temperature alarms, tripped breakers, or control errors keep occurring.

  • You notice excessive ice buildup, visible leaks, or unusual noises coming from the equipment.
