How long does it take you to get to Saratoga from San Ramon?

About 55 minutes via I-680 and Highway 85, so we schedule Saratoga with our nearby South Bay stops in Los Gatos, and with Los Altos Hills and Palo Alto on the Peninsula side. Grouped that way, Saratoga visits land within a day or two, and a failed unit with product inside gets a direct trip.

Our home has a built-in commercial Traulsen from a 2010 remodel. Do you service residential installations?

Yes, and Saratoga is one of the cities where we see this most. The equipment is identical to restaurant hardware and so is my work on it. Same $75 diagnostic waived with repair, and careful handling around the surrounding millwork is part of the job.

Can you do a pre-season check on our venue's refrigeration before events start?

That is one of the smarter calls a Saratoga venue can make. We clean condensers, test start components under load, verify defrost and drains, and document temperatures, all quoted in writing. It converts mid-event emergencies into scheduled maintenance.

Traulsen in Saratoga

Traulsen commercial service.

Saratoga's Traulsen population is small but distinctive. The Village restaurants run reach-ins in compact historic-building kitchens, the event and winery venues in the hills run banquet refrigeration that works in intense seasonal bursts, and a notable share of Saratoga estate kitchens include true commercial Traulsen cabinets, built in during remodels by owners who wanted restaurant-grade cold storage at home.

We service all of it through Bay Area Refrigeration Service, the commercial refrigeration division of ADRIUM Service Solutions. Traulsen builds heavier than most reach-in lines, which is why these units survive both the seasonal abuse of event kitchens and the decades of quiet duty in estate homes. My approach in Saratoga is the same as in a hospital kitchen: read the controller fault history on newer units, test before quoting, and put the finding in writing.

The diagnostic is $75, waived when you approve the repair, with written quotes up front and a one year warranty on repairs.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Seasonal-duty failures at event and winery venue kitchens. Venue refrigeration in the Saratoga hills sits lightly loaded for weeks and then runs flat out for a wedding season weekend. Start components fail on the ramp-up, and condensers that collected a season of dust and pollen drive head pressure high exactly when the box is fullest. A pre-season checkout catches most of this, and we repair the rest when it surfaces.
Estate-kitchen units aging out their original gaskets and sensors. Commercial Traulsens in Saratoga homes commonly run fifteen or twenty years on original soft parts. Hardened gaskets leak air, cabinet sensors drift, and the unit runs long and reads wrong. Both fixes are modest, and they usually return the cabinet to holding temperature like it did when the remodel was new.
Condensate and drain problems in tight Village kitchens. Historic-building kitchens in Saratoga Village leave no room around equipment, and drain lines get routed creatively. Clogged or frozen condensate paths put water on the floor and, in bad cases, under adjacent cabinetry. We clear and correct the drain routing and verify the defrost cycle that feeds it.
