We are opening in a Mare Island building and inherited an old Beverage-Air reach-in. Is it worth keeping?

Often it is. Have us check it before you stock it: holding temperature, gasket, thermostat, condenser and refrigerant charge. You get a written list with the cost of each fix, and you can compare that total with a new unit before deciding.

How do we tell whether an old Beverage-Air is leaking refrigerant or just dirty?

A dirty condenser makes the unit run hot and loud, and a cleaning brings it back. A leak makes it run nonstop with a partly frosted evaporator, and cleaning changes nothing. We measure pressures and temperatures to separate the two before quoting.

Is it worth fixing the thermostat on a 20-year-old Beverage-Air?

Usually yes. A thermostat is an inexpensive part, and on a unit with a sound compressor and a tight sealed system it can bring back steady temperatures. If the sealed system looks tired as well, we tell you before you spend anything.

Beverage-Air in Vallejo

Beverage-Air commercial service.

Beverage-Air builds commercial refrigeration that lasts, and a unit that gets basic care can run for many years. That changes the math on an old reach-in or back-bar cooler in a Vallejo kitchen or bar. When one finally acts up, repairing it almost always beats replacing it, and our job is to find the part that failed without selling you a box you do not need.

Age brings its own failures. After 15 to 20 years, vibration and corrosion can open a leak in the sealed system, and that is the bigger job on this brand. ADRIUM holds EPA 608 Universal certification for that work. Vallejo is covered by our technician from neighboring Benicia, and the $99 diagnostic is credited toward the repair once you approve the written quote.

Common repairs we handle.

Slow refrigerant leak on a unit past fifteen years. The box runs a little longer each month and never quite reaches its setpoint. We confirm the low charge, find the leak, and look over the rest of the sealed system before quoting, so you know whether a repair buys years or only months.
Thermostat drifted off its setpoint. An older Beverage-Air that runs warm or cold with nothing else wrong often has a thermostat that has drifted or quit. We check the cabinet against a probe thermometer, test where the thermostat cuts in and out, and replace it if it no longer tracks.
Condenser fan motor tired after years of running. A fan motor that has turned for a decade slows down, squeals, or stops on a hot day. The compressor then runs hot and trips on its overload. We replace the motor, clean the coil while the grille is off, and watch the head pressure settle.
