How does coverage work for Redwood City now that you're not just coming from San Ramon?

We have a technician living on the Peninsula, in San Mateo County, and Redwood City sits inside his coverage area now instead of getting routed from San Ramon. Call and we'll give you a straight answer on how the day is running.

Can you get to us before our dinner rush if a box goes down mid-afternoon?

We work with you on timing and we answer the phone seven days a week. I won't promise a same-day window without knowing the day's schedule, but we understand the pre-show rush deadline and we route around it when we can.

Do you service the hospital or hotel kitchens downtown, or just restaurants?

Both. Institutional food service, hotel kitchens, and independent restaurants all run the same style of commercial Traulsen equipment, and the diagnostic process and written quote work the same way regardless of who's running the kitchen.

Traulsen in Redwood City

Traulsen commercial service.

Redwood City is the county seat, and downtown around the courthouse square runs a real concentration of restaurants, plus the Broadway strip that fills up before shows at the Fox Theatre. Add Sequoia Hospital's food service and the office towers that have moved in over the last decade, and Redwood City has more commercial kitchen volume than a lot of Peninsula towns its size, with a fair share of it running Traulsen equipment.

The theater-district timing matters here. A warm reach-in an hour before a pre-show dinner rush is a different emergency than the same problem at 2 in the afternoon, and I try to get ahead of it by pulling the controller's fault code history the moment I walk in, since staff under pressure before a rush tend to silence an alarm rather than report it.

Redwood City gets covered by our Peninsula technician, in San Mateo County, so calls here don't wait on a drive from San Ramon anymore. Commercial refrigeration runs through Bay Area Refrigeration Service. I'm Andrew Kuznetsov, EPA Section 608 Universal certified, CSLB #1136642, and we're on the phone seven days a week. $99 gets the diagnostic done, waived if you move forward with the repair, quote in writing before anything gets ordered.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Digital controller fault codes silenced before the pre-show rush. A G-Series or newer Traulsen throws a specific alarm code when something drifts out of range, and in a kitchen racing to feed a theater crowd, that alarm often gets muted rather than fixed. I pull the stored fault history first thing, because it usually points straight at the failed sensor or fan instead of leaving me to search the whole cabinet.
Start relay failure after back-to-back lunch and dinner turns. Redwood City kitchens that run a full lunch and a full pre-theater dinner put the compressor through two hard cycling stretches a day. The start relay takes that load first. A box that clicks and won't kick over between service periods is telling you the relay is done, and I test it directly rather than assuming the compressor needs replacing.
Door hinge and gasket failure from courthouse-crowd lunch lines. The lunch line at a courthouse-square kitchen moves fast and the door gets worked hard for a tight window. Hinges sag, gaskets stop sealing at the corners, and the box runs longer to hold temperature. I rebuild the hinge set and fit a matching gasket, then check that the door actually latches instead of just swinging shut.
