Do you cover the hotel bars near SFO on short notice?

We prioritize a bar that is down and losing product, hotel or otherwise. Call (925) 999-4095, tell us it is affecting service, and we work it into the schedule as fast as the day allows.

Can you match parts for older Perlick units, not just current models?

Most of what fails, gaskets, thermistors, start relays, condenser fan motors, has a direct or close-fit replacement even on older cabinets. If a control board is fully discontinued I tell you that honestly and give you the repair-versus-replace numbers in writing.

How quickly can you reach San Bruno?

We route San Bruno with Millbrae and Pacifica on Peninsula days, and with our technician now based in San Mateo County, that route does not depend on a drive from San Ramon. Once you are on the schedule you get a written arrival window, not a vague estimate.

Perlick in San Bruno

Perlick commercial service.

San Bruno sits under the SFO flight path, and that shapes the Perlick work here as much as anything else. Airport hotel bars along El Camino Real run back-bar coolers and beer systems hard for a crowd that never really stops, the restaurants along the older San Bruno Avenue strip serve a steady neighborhood crowd, and the newer development at the former Tanforan racetrack site brought in sit-down chains with their own bar programs.

Millbrae sits directly south and Pacifica just west over the hill, and we route all three together on Peninsula days, so a San Bruno call rarely sits alone on the schedule.

We run this as an independent shop under CSLB #1136642, with EPA 608 certification on the refrigerant side. The $99 diagnostic fee is waived if you move forward with the repair, and every quote is written, not verbal.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Hotel bar back-bar cooler worn down from constant traffic. Airport hotel bars near SFO see steady covers at hours a neighborhood restaurant never would, and the compressor rarely gets a real rest. I check start components, clean the condenser, and verify the unit can hold temperature through a full night shift, not just a quiet afternoon.
Beer dispenser losing pour temperature at Tanforan-area restaurants. The dispensing side of a Perlick system can pour warm even when the compressor sounds healthy, usually from a glycol bath that has drifted or trunk line insulation that gave out. We test glycol, re-insulate, and confirm faucet temperature before we call it fixed.
Undercounter thermistor drifting on San Bruno Avenue restaurant units. Older units along the San Bruno Avenue strip show a common pattern where the thermistor reads off and the control board holds the compressor on too long or shuts it off too early. I swap the thermistor, check the control calibration, and log the cabinet temperature over a full cycle before I leave.
