About Preventive Maintenance

Preventive maintenance is the most cost-effective way to protect your commercial kitchen equipment investment. A well-maintained kitchen experiences fewer emergency breakdowns, longer equipment lifespans, and lower total operating costs. Our certified technicians design and execute customized PM programs for restaurants, hotels, schools, and healthcare facilities. Maintenance programs typically cover all commercial kitchen equipment on a scheduled basis: daily, monthly, quarterly, and annual services tailored to each piece of equipment. We provide detailed service reports, maintenance logs, and recommendations for equipment approaching end-of-life to support capital planning.

Preventive Maintenance FAQs

My walk-in cooler temperature is rising. What should I do first?

1) Check if the condenser unit is running. 2) Inspect condenser coils for dirt and debris — blocked coils are a common cause. 3) Ensure walk-in door gaskets are sealing properly. 4) Check if evaporator fan is running. 5) Look for ice buildup on evaporator coils (defrost system failure). If temperature is rising significantly, move temperature-sensitive inventory and call a technician immediately — this is an emergency situation.

When should I repair versus replace commercial kitchen equipment?

Consider replacement when: repair costs exceed 50% of replacement cost, the equipment is over 75% of its expected lifespan, parts are no longer available, the equipment frequently breaks down, or energy costs are significantly higher than modern alternatives. Repair when: the equipment is relatively new, the repair is straightforward, and the total repair cost is well below replacement value. A qualified technician can help evaluate your specific situation.
