True in Rodeo
True commercial service.
Rodeo sits on the eastern shore of San Pablo Bay, and many homes in the Bayo Vista and Oleum area are small to mid-size houses built between 1940 and 1969. A True reach-in or freezer in one of those houses, or in a small local shop, may share an older circuit, so the power at the outlet becomes part of the diagnosis.
A True compressor needs steady voltage to start. On a long extension cord or a crowded circuit it can hum, click off on its overload and try again. We measure voltage at the outlet while the compressor starts, test the relay, overload and capacitor, and tell you plainly when the fix is electrical rather than in the unit.
Our technician for Rodeo, Crockett and Port Costa is based in Benicia. The $99 diagnostic is credited toward the repair; the quote is written before any work, and ADRIUM holds EPA 608 Universal certification for refrigerant repairs.
Common repairs we handle.
- Compressor humming and clicking off at startup. Low voltage at start makes the compressor pull heavy current, and the overload opens. A failed relay or capacitor makes the same sound. We measure voltage under load, test each start part and the windings, and fix what actually failed.
- Freezer defrost heater burned out. When the defrost heater opens, frost keeps building on the coil until air cannot move. The freezer warms slowly while the compressor keeps running. We test the heater and the termination switch, melt the coil and run a defrost to confirm it clears.
- Condenser coil clogged with lint and dust. A unit in a laundry corner or a garage pulls lint and dust into its coil, and the compressor runs hotter and longer for it. We clean the coil and the fan blade, then check the compressor's amp draw to be sure it is back in range.

True Reach-In Freezer Door Gasket Replacement
A Livermore restaurant's two-door reach-in freezer was losing cold air at the door. The gasket had gone stiff and no longer pressed flat against the cabinet, so the seal broke every time the door closed.

FAQ
True in Rodeo questions, answered.
-
Our True freezer keeps clicking on and off in an older house. Is it the freezer or the wiring?
It can be either. We measure voltage at the outlet while the compressor starts and test the start parts. If voltage sags badly, the freezer needs its own circuit, which is an electrician's job, and we tell you so instead of replacing parts that are not broken. -
Do you come to Crockett and Port Costa for True equipment?
Yes. We take calls there as well as in Rodeo, with the same on-site diagnosis and a written quote before anything is replaced. -
Is an extension cord okay for a True reach-in?
Better not. A long or light cord drops voltage during the start, and the compressor pays for it. Plug it straight into a grounded outlet rated for the load, ideally on a circuit it does not share.
