24/7 Emergency Service
Refrigeration Repair in Penticton
Walk-in down? Ice machine dead? Cooler losing temperature? One call and a technician is on the way — day or night, anywhere in the South Okanagan.
Warning Signs
Call Before It Becomes a Breakdown
Refrigeration equipment usually gives warnings before it fails. If you're seeing any of these, it's cheaper to call now than after you've lost a cooler full of product.
Temperature Creeping Up
Your walk-in or reach-in can't hold its set temperature, or swings noticeably between checks.
Compressor Running Constantly
The unit never cycles off — often a refrigerant leak, dirty coils, or failing components driving your power bill up.
Ice or Frost Buildup
Frost on evaporator coils, iced-up fans, or water pooling under the unit point to defrost or airflow problems.
Strange Noises
Grinding, clicking, or buzzing from the compressor or fan motors usually means a part is on its way out.
Ice Machine Underproducing
Smaller cubes, cloudy ice, or half-empty bins signal scale buildup, water supply, or refrigeration issues.
Door Seals Failing
Torn or loose gaskets let warm air in — your equipment works harder and your food safety margin shrinks.

What Happens When You Call

Equipment type, what it's doing, and how urgent it is. We'll tell you honestly whether it can wait for regular hours — no upselling an emergency that isn't one.
2. Protect Your Product

Our service van carries common parts for major brands, so most repairs are completed on the first visit.
Quick Checks
Two Minutes Before You Call
Sometimes it's simple. Before you call, it's worth checking:

FAQ
Repair Questions
Do you really answer after hours?
Yes — refrigeration emergencies don't keep business hours and neither do we. Our emergency line 250-488-6860 is answered 24/7, including weekends and holidays.
Should I repair or replace my old unit?
We'll give you a straight answer based on the equipment's age, the failure, and repair cost. If a repair doesn't make financial sense, we'll tell you — and quote a replacement so you can compare.
Can you fix residential fridges and freezers?
Our focus is commercial refrigeration — restaurant, retail, and industrial equipment. For a home fridge, a residential appliance repair service will usually be a better fit.
How do I avoid the next breakdown?
Preventative maintenance. Clean coils, tested controls, and checked refrigerant levels prevent the majority of emergency calls. See our maintenance programs for details.
