Commercial Refrigeration

Refrigeration Is Our First Name

When your walk-in cooler fails on a Friday night or your ice machine quits during a heat wave, every hour costs you product and customers. Smith Refrigeration specializes in commercial refrigeration — it's not a sideline to our HVAC work, it's the core of what we do.
We install, repair, and maintain refrigeration equipment for restaurants, grocery stores, wineries, breweries, and food producers throughout Penticton and the South Okanagan. From a single reach-in to a full walk-in build-out, we handle the job start to finish.

Who We Serve

Refrigeration for Every Okanagan Business

Restaurants & Cafés

Walk-ins, prep tables, ice machines, and display cases — with fast response when equipment goes down mid-service.

Wineries & Breweries

Glycol chillers, fermentation control, and barrel room cooling for the Okanagan's craft producers.

Grocery & Retail

Stop Paying for Emergencies You Can Prevent

Most refrigeration failures start small — a dirty coil, a worn gasket, low refrigerant. Our preventative maintenance programs catch them before they take your equipment down in July.
