Perlick Refrigerator Repair Near You — All Brands Serviced

The same equipment serves home bars in Greater Boston houses and working bars in restaurants and hotels. Either way it is built for a long life and designed to be repaired in place, which keeps the sums firmly on the side of repair. The same principles apply wherever the unit is installed.

The grille at your feet

A new kick panel, a bar rail, a rug or a change of flooring can close off the front vent without anyone noticing. The condenser then has no air path, and the cabinet warms while the compressor runs flat out.

We check that grille and the coil behind it before anything else. A single commercial compartment has no second section to compare against, so the evidence comes from run time, discharge air and the condenser's condition during a busy service. Warm glassware or a door left open during clean-down makes things worse.

Doors, drawers and shallow cabinets

Doors and drawers opened constantly through an evening lose gasket compression steadily. In a cabinet with so little reserve, even a small leak shows up as a temperature swing.

Evaporator fan and drain faults are the other regular findings. A blocked drain in a shallow undercounter can leave water standing in the base within a few days. Clearing the drain and checking the fan are both quick jobs.

Beer complaints are not always refrigeration

Draught systems are a chain: glycol power pack, trunk lines, tower, faucets and gas. Warm or foamy beer is as often a line, gas or glycol issue as a fault in the cooler underneath.

Our technician separates the dispensing system from the refrigeration before quoting. Undercounter units that need to come out of a fitted bar are planned into the visit. A clear diagnosis stops anyone replacing a compressor to fix a gas regulator.
