Our neighbors can hear the Profitec through the wall. Can the noise be reduced?

Often, yes. New pump mounts, tight fittings and a pump that is not straining all cut the buzz. A soft mat under the machine helps a little. If the pump is worn, replacing it makes the real difference.

What do you need to collect a machine from a condo building?

The building name, your unit number, which entrance to use and any rules for moving items through the lobby or elevator. Have the machine off and cold, with the tank and drip tray empty.

Can we keep using the machine while the pump is loud?

If it still makes normal shots, yes, for a while. If the noise comes with weak flow or none at all, switch it off, because a pump that runs without moving water can overheat.

Profitec in Emeryville

Profitec in Emeryville kitchens.

Housing in Emeryville is mostly multi-unit, and in a condo the buzz of an espresso machine can carry through a shared wall. A vibration pump that rattles louder than it used to is telling you something. Its rubber mounts may have hardened, a fitting may have worked loose, or the pump itself may be wearing out and working harder for less pressure.

We collect from the Watergate towers at the marina, the buildings along the Shellmound corridor and the Powell Street and Bay Street district. Tell us about elevator bookings or lobby rules when you schedule. On our bench we read pump pressure on a test gauge, check the mounts and fittings, and send the written quote before any part is ordered.

$150 pickup deposit. Pickup, bench diagnosis, and return are included. The deposit is not credited toward the repair. Repair work is quoted separately. Bench diagnosis can take up to one week; most repairs take 3–4 weeks. Same-day pickup may be available, but same-day repair is not offered. 6 months on parts and labor; 90 days on consumables.

Common repairs we do

What we repair on the bench.

Vibration pump that rattles louder than it used to. Hardened mounts pass the pump's vibration straight into the frame. We replace the mounts and any cracked hose clips, then run the pump to hear whether the noise is gone or the pump itself is the cause.
Weak pump pressure behind a quick, thin shot. A worn vibration pump loses pressure a little at a time. We fit a test gauge to a blind basket, read the pressure the pump builds and replace it only when that number is low.
Machine that trips the GFCI outlet as it heats. Kitchen counter outlets in newer buildings are GFCI protected, and an element leaking current to ground will trip one. We test each heating element for insulation faults and replace the one that leaks.
