Proper refrigeration is key to maintaining food safety in your restaurant. If your refrigerator starts acting up, you could be putting customers and your health inspection rating at risk. This guide will help you spot refrigeration problems early on so you know when to call a commercial refrigeration professional for repair. 

Does Your Commercial Refrigerator Need Repair?

1. Frost Buildup

Frost buildup on the walls, ceiling, shelves, and packaging in your refrigerator indicates a temperature issue. It often means the door is not closing tightly or there is a crack in the walls letting air leaks drive the temperature down. A commercial refrigeration professional can diagnose the issue and remove any frost.  

2. Unusual Sounds or Smells

3. Physical Damage

If you have to fiddle with your refrigerator door to get it to open or close, it’s time for repair. When the door or door frame is damaged, cold air can leak out. The door may also pop open overnight and cause the food inside to spoil. 

4. Fluctuating Temperatures

Commercial refrigeration systems need to stay at a consistent temperature to pass health inspections and keep food safe. If temperatures are going up and down frequently, call for repair. Changing temperatures could be the result of an electrical issue or other mechanical problem.
