Richmond is across the East Bay from San Ramon. Do you really cover it?

Yes. The run is Highway 24 through the Caldecott, then up through Berkeley on 80, about 40 minutes outside commute hours. Richmond schedules with Berkeley and Oakland on our Inner East Bay days, so we are in the corridor regularly. Service is available 7 days.

Can you service refrigeration in a food production facility, not just a restaurant?

Yes. Production and distribution equipment is standard work for our refrigeration division, including units running around the clock. EPA 608 Universal certification covers the refrigerant side at any equipment size, and we document the work in writing for your compliance files.

How do I know you will not just sell me a new compressor?

Because I test first. Amp draw and superheat readings tell me whether a compressor is actually failing, and most warm-cabinet calls trace to airflow or drainage instead. The written quote shows what I measured, so you see the reasoning, not just the price.

Continental Refrigerator in Richmond

Continental Refrigerator commercial service.

Richmond's food scene runs wide: the cafes and restaurants of Point Richmond, the taquerias and markets along 23rd Street, and the food production and distribution businesses in the industrial zones near the port. Continental reach-ins and prep tables show up in all three, and in the production facilities they often run 24 hours without a break.

We cover Richmond through Bay Area Refrigeration Service, the commercial refrigeration division of ADRIUM Service Solutions out of San Ramon. I hold EPA Section 608 Universal certification for sealed system work, we operate under CSLB #1136642, and every job starts with a written quote. The $75 diagnostic is waived with repair.

Around-the-clock equipment fails differently. There is no overnight recovery period to mask a weak condenser or a marginal charge, so problems in Richmond production kitchens surface fast and hard. I test under load because that is how these units actually live.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Compressor overload trips on 24-hour production equipment. Continental units in Richmond food production spaces never rest, and a condenser at even half blockage pushes head pressure high enough to trip the overload repeatedly. Staff hear clicking and assume compressor death. I clean the coil, meter the start components, and check amp draw before anyone spends compressor money.
Run capacitor failures accelerated by salt air near the waterfront. Point Richmond equipment lives close to the water, and corrosion shortens the life of capacitor terminals and relay contacts. A Continental reach-in that starts intermittently often just needs its start components replaced and connections cleaned. I treat the terminals so the fix lasts in this environment.
Frozen drains flooding cabinets in high-humidity kitchens. Steamy 23rd Street kitchens push humid air into every reach-in door opening. The Continental evaporator ices, the drain line freezes, and water floods the cabinet floor. I clear the drain, fix the icing source, and check the gasket, since a $60 gasket usually caused the whole chain.
