How far is Los Gatos from your San Ramon base?

About 50 minutes via 680 and 880 to 17. We route Los Gatos with Saratoga and Los Altos Hills on South Bay and Peninsula days, so a booked window is dependable, and for a fully down unit we can usually move the route around you.

Our restaurant cannot have a technician on the line during dinner prep. When do you come?

Mid-afternoon between lunch and dinner works for most Los Gatos kitchens, and we also take early mornings. Diagnosis is typically under an hour on Beverage-Air self-contained units.

Do you provide documentation our restaurant group requires from vendors?

Yes. License CSLB #1136642, EPA 608 Universal certification, insurance certificates, and written quotes and invoices on every job. Restaurant group accounting gets what it needs without chasing.

Beverage-Air in Los Gatos

Beverage-Air commercial service.

Los Gatos runs one of the South Bay's densest dining strips along North Santa Cruz Avenue, white-tablecloth restaurants, wine bars, and cafes packed into a few walkable blocks. Behind those bars sit Beverage-Air BB series coolers, and behind the kitchens sit reach-ins and worktop units. We service them through Bay Area Refrigeration Service, our commercial division.

The buildings themselves shape the failures here. Many Santa Cruz Avenue kitchens occupy older structures with tight back-of-house spaces and marginal ventilation, so condensers foul quickly and units run against hot walls. My first moves on any warm box are airflow and refrigerant charge, and in Los Gatos those two checks close most calls without a compressor ever coming up.

Certification and licensing are in order, EPA Section 608 Universal and CSLB #1136642. You get a written quote before work begins, repairs carry a one year warranty, and the $75 diagnostic is waived when you proceed.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Seized condenser fans in tight back-of-house spaces. Reach-ins wedged into old-building kitchens off Santa Cruz Avenue starve for air, and their fan motors run hot until the bearings give out. The box loses hold on a Friday night. We replace the motor, clean the condenser, and reposition or shim the unit where a few inches of clearance will double the motor's life.
Wine bar cooler icing from gasket and door wear. Glass door coolers in Los Gatos wine bars ice their evaporators once gaskets harden and doors sag on worn hinges. By-the-glass whites drift warm and the compressor never rests. We rebuild the door seal, clear the coil, and confirm stable serving temperature through an evening cycle.
Control board failures behind high-volume bars. BB series back-bar units on this strip run long hours, and probe or board failures cycle the compressor wrong, freezing beer on one shelf while another warms. We diagnose the control side with a meter rather than guesswork, replace the failed part, and verify even shelf temperatures.
