Traulsen in Moraga
Traulsen commercial service.
Moraga does not have a big restaurant strip, but the Traulsen equipment here works just as hard. The cafes and small kitchens around the Rheem Valley shopping center run single-section reach-ins in tight back rooms with poor airflow, and the institutional kitchens serving the Saint Mary's College area use the heavier two-section boxes Traulsen built its name on. We also see commercial-style Traulsen units in larger Moraga home kitchens, usually installed during a remodel by an owner who wanted restaurant-grade cold storage.
Our commercial refrigeration work runs through Bay Area Refrigeration Service, the refrigeration division of ADRIUM Service Solutions in San Ramon. Traulsen cabinets are heavier duty than most reach-in lines, which means they are worth repairing well past the age where a lighter brand would go to the curb. I carry gaskets, fan motors, and controls for the common G-Series and R-Series configurations.
Diagnostic is $75, waived when you approve the repair, with a written quote before any work and a one year repair warranty.
Common repairs we do
What we close on the truck.
- Door gaskets and cartridge hinges worn out on older reach-ins. Traulsen doors are heavy, and after years of swings the hinge cartridges sag and the magnetic gaskets stop sealing at the corners. The unit then runs long cycles and ices the evaporator. In Moraga we see this a lot on well-kept older units. New cartridges and gaskets usually restore the seal without touching the sealed system.
- Condensate drain freeze-up in back-room installations. Small Moraga kitchens tuck reach-ins into unconditioned storage rooms. Cold ambient plus a marginal defrost cycle lets the drain line freeze, and meltwater ends up pooling under the cabinet floor. We clear the drain, verify the defrost heater and termination, and adjust defrost frequency on the controller.
- Start relay and capacitor failure on self-contained compressors. When a Traulsen clicks and hums but the compressor never starts, the start components are the usual suspect, not the compressor itself. I test the relay and capacitor before anyone talks about replacing a compressor, because half the time a twenty minute repair puts the box back in service.

FAQ
Traulsen in Moraga questions, answered.
-
How long does it take you to reach Moraga from San Ramon?
About 30 minutes over Bollinger Canyon and through the Lamorinda roads. We group Moraga with Orinda, Lafayette, and Walnut Creek, so a Moraga call usually rides along with our Diablo Valley route and same-day service is realistic on most weekdays. -
You service residential Traulsen units too, not just restaurants?
Yes. Several Moraga homes have full commercial Traulsen reach-ins from kitchen remodels. The equipment is identical to what restaurants run, and so are the failures. Same $75 diagnostic, waived with repair, and the same written quote process. -
My older Traulsen still cools but runs constantly. Worth fixing?
Usually yes. Constant running most often means a dirty condenser, tired gaskets, or a weak evaporator fan, all repairable for far less than a new cabinet. Traulsen boxes are built heavier than most reach-ins, so I will tell you honestly at diagnosis whether yours has another decade in it.
