Kelvinator in Berkeley
Kelvinator commercial service.
Berkeley runs one of the densest independent food scenes in the East Bay, and a lot of it leans on older, well-kept gear that nobody wants to replace. You still find Kelvinator reach-ins, chest freezers, and glass-door merchandisers in the cafes off Shattuck, the late-night spots on Telegraph near campus, and the small producers and markets in West Berkeley. When the cold side goes down, these owners want someone who'll actually diagnose the unit, not a parts-changer guessing on the clock.
We service Kelvinator as an independent shop, no factory-authorization claim on the brand, just the parts and the fix.

Common repairs we handle.
- Merchandisers and bottle coolers. On Kelvinator glass-door merchandisers and back-bar bottle coolers around Telegraph and the flatland markets, the recurring trouble is door heaters, a tired defrost timer, or a clogged drain line backing water into the cabinet. We clear and rebuild those instead of condemning the whole box.
- Reach-ins running warm. A Kelvinator reach-in that won't pull below 45 is usually a failed evaporator-fan motor, a dirty condenser running the compressor hot, or a gasket that quit sealing.
- Sealed-system and R290 work. Sealed-system work stays in-house. We recover, evacuate, and weigh in the charge under EPA #1279674151528, and we're R290 hydrocarbon trained for the newer self-contained Kelvinator units. Compressor swaps and leak repair done right.

FAQ
Kelvinator in Berkeley questions, answered.
-
Are you a Kelvinator dealer?
No. We're an independent refrigeration shop and we make no factory-authorization claim on Kelvinator. We service the equipment for Berkeley kitchens. -
Does Berkeley water cause scale problems on Kelvinator ice gear?
Berkeley's municipal water is on the softer side compared to deeper East Bay wells, but cafe and restaurant volume still scales any minerals over time. We descale, swap filters, and rebuild water circuits before they choke production. -
Can you handle an outage during service hours?
Yes. Call (925) 999-4095, say it's an outage, and we'll prioritize it. We're dispatched from San Ramon, 7 AM to 7 PM, seven days, with the same number after hours.
