Manitowoc in Orinda
Manitowoc commercial service.
Orinda's commercial ice load is concentrated in a few blocks around Theatre Square and the crossroads, but the residential side runs deeper than the town's size suggests. Hillside homes here were built out with wet bars, pool houses, and remodeled kitchens, and a fair number include undercounter Manitowoc units that are now a decade into their service life. We provide Manitowoc authorized service and completed the Manitowoc Ice and Koolaire Field Service Seminar in February 2026 under Jonathan Binley at Pentair Water Solutions.
The Orinda hills also sit in PG&E shutoff territory, and repeated power cycling is genuinely hard on ice machine compressors and controls. After a shutoff week we reliably get calls from Lamorinda about machines that never restarted properly.
We are ADRIUM Service Solutions, owner Andrew Kuznetsov, based in San Ramon just over the hills. EPA 608 Universal certified, CSLB #1136642, written quotes, $99 diagnostic credited toward the repair, seven days.

Common repairs we handle.
- Start component failures after power shutoffs. A compressor that hums and trips after an outage usually has a failed start relay or capacitor, not a failed compressor. We test the windings and the start kit separately and replace only what measured bad. Owners who were quoted a new machine elsewhere are often running again for the cost of a small part.
- Leaking dump valves on aging undercounter units. Ten-year-old residential units develop dump valves that no longer seal, so freeze water drains away mid-cycle and the ice comes out thin and cloudy. It is a straightforward replacement, and while we are in the machine we descale the sump and check the drain trap, because those age together.
- Harvest sticking from scaled evaporators. Lamorinda machines that skipped their cleanings build scale on the evaporator until cubes grip the plate and the safety limit trips. We descale to the factory procedure and inspect the plating, and I will tell you honestly if past scale damage means the evaporator's days are numbered.

FAQ
Manitowoc in Orinda questions, answered.
-
How close is Orinda to your base in San Ramon?
About 30 to 35 minutes, either through the Lamorinda back roads past Moraga and Lafayette or around on 680 and 24. Orinda shares a route day with Moraga, Lafayette, and the Berkeley and Piedmont side, so scheduling is quick. -
Should we shut the ice machine down before a planned power shutoff?
Yes, and it is worth the thirty seconds. Power the machine off at its switch before the outage and wait a few minutes after stable power returns before restarting. That protects the compressor from the voltage sag at restoration, which is what actually kills start components. -
Do you charge extra for coming out on a Sunday?
We work seven days as normal business, and we quote the same way regularly: $99 diagnostic, credited toward the repair, everything in writing before work starts.
