True in South San Francisco
True commercial service.
South San Francisco still wears The Industrial City on the hillside sign, and that history shows up in the food service equipment we get called for: campus cafeterias feeding biotech shift workers around the clock, warehouse-district catering kitchens, and break room merchandisers scattered through the office parks off Oyster Point and Gateway Boulevard. A True reach-in feeding a research campus does not get downtime the way a small cafe might, and we treat those calls that way. Brisbane sits just north along Bayshore, and we run its Sierra Point office and biotech kitchens on the same trips.
Commercial refrigeration is our division Bay Area Refrigeration Service, part of ADRIUM Service Solutions. Owner Andrew Kuznetsov is EPA Section 608 Universal certified and the company carries CSLB #1136642. With a technician now based on the Peninsula, South San Francisco gets a local response instead of a haul up from San Ramon. The diagnostic visit is $99 and it is credited back when you approve the written quote, 7 days a week.
Common repairs we do
What we close on the truck.
- Compressor start relays wearing out on nonstop campus units. A cafeteria reach-in feeding a biotech campus around shift changes barely gets a rest, and the compressor's start relay is usually the first part to fail under that duty cycle. The symptom is a compressor that hums and trips instead of starting. I test the relay and start capacitor together rather than swapping one blind, because a bad capacitor takes out a new relay fast.
- Walk-in evaporator fans seizing from grease-laden air. Industrial catering kitchens near the old warehouse district run heavier grease exhaust than a typical restaurant, and that air finds its way into the walk-in evaporator fan bearings over time. The fan slows, then stops, and the box climbs in temperature even though the compressor is still cycling normally. I replace the fan motor and clean the coil so the new motor is not fighting buildup.
- Break room merchandiser thermostats drifting off setpoint. Grab-and-go merchandisers in office park break rooms run unattended for months, and the thermostat control can drift a few degrees before anyone notices the drinks are not as cold as they should be. I check the control against a calibrated thermometer rather than trusting the dial, and replace it when it has drifted for good.

FAQ
True in South San Francisco questions, answered.
-
Do you service Brisbane's biotech and industrial kitchens too?
Yes, Brisbane is right next door and its Sierra Point office park kitchens ride the same route as our South San Francisco calls. -
We are on a biotech campus with badge access. Can you still get in for service?
Generally yes. Tell the front desk or facilities contact ahead of time and we will bring what is needed for check-in. We do this routinely for campus cafeterias in the area. -
Since San Ramon is your home base, how does South San Francisco get covered?
We keep a technician based on the Peninsula in San Mateo County now, so South San Francisco is a local response for that technician rather than a cross-bay trip from San Ramon.
