How much room does a Donper need on a tight counter?

Check the manual for your model, and keep every vent clear on the sides and back. A gap of a few inches is not the same as open air if the machine sits in an alcove. We look at what you have and tell you if the machine needs to move.

Will a compressor replacement need the building's freight elevator?

Usually not for the machine, since we replace compressors in place and it never leaves the counter. We still bring tools, a recovery machine and the new compressor, so let us know the dock and elevator rules when you book.

Can you schedule the repair around our building's trade hours?

Yes. Tell us the hours and who books the elevator or dock. We plan the diagnostic inside that window when the schedule allows and bring common seals and parts so more of the repair fits into it.

Donper in Emeryville

Donper commercial service.

Much of Emeryville's retail sits in mixed-use buildings around Bay Street, Powell Street and the Shellmound corridor. A Donper machine tucked onto a tight counter or into an alcove has nowhere to dump its heat, and a machine that cannot breathe runs its compressor hot until the overload trips.

So we check clearance and airflow along with the machine itself, and we plan around the building: loading dock, elevator, trade hours. The technician who comes to Emeryville is based in Benicia. Refrigerant work falls under ADRIUM's EPA 608 Universal certification. There is a $99 diagnostic, credited toward the repair, and a written quote before any work. CSLB #1136642.

Common repairs we handle.

Machine hot to the touch and tripping. A self-contained machine pulls air across its condenser through vents in the cabinet. Boxed in by a wall, a cup dispenser or a backsplash, the condenser breathes its own hot air. We clean the condenser, check the fan and tell you how much clearance the machine needs on each side.
New rattle or hum through a shared wall. A fan blade out of balance, loose compressor mounts or a panel screw backing out will carry noise into the next unit. We find the source, tighten or replace the mounts and balance or replace the fan so the machine runs quiet again.
Leaking after the machine was moved. Moving a machine can knock it out of level and unseat the drip tray or a barrel seal. Product and melt then run where they should not. We level the machine, reseat or replace the seals and check the drain path before it goes back into service.
