Do you cover the Rockaway Beach and Highway 1 restaurants?

Yes, the brewpubs, cafes, and restaurants along that stretch, and anywhere else in Pacifica running Beverage-Air reach-ins, back-bar coolers, or prep tables.

Does the ocean air actually damage the equipment, or is that overstated?

It's real. We see condenser and control board corrosion in Pacifica that we don't see on the same equipment a few miles inland. A proactive coil cleaning on a schedule slows it down but doesn't stop it.

What's the diagnostic cost?

$99, credited toward the repair, with a written quote first.

Beverage-Air in Pacifica

Beverage-Air refrigeration in Pacifica.

Pacifica's commercial kitchens sit right up against the ocean, the restaurants and brewpubs along the Highway 1 corridor and around Rockaway Beach, the cafes near the pier. The coastal setting is good for business and hard on refrigeration equipment in about equal measure.

Salt air corrosion here is a real, physical problem, not an exaggeration. A Beverage-Air condenser coil that would run for years inland starts pitting on the fin stock within a couple of seasons on this stretch of coast, and unprotected steel brackets and screws rust visibly faster than the same parts a few miles east. We check for that corrosion specifically on every Pacifica call, not just dust and grease.

We carry no Beverage-Air factory authorization, this is independent repair work, parts and know-how, not a manufacturer relationship. $99 gets the unit diagnosed, and that fee is credited against an approved repair, with the quote in writing before anything starts. EPA #1279674151528 covers our sealed-system certification, CSLB #1136642 is the contractor license. The coast run to Pacifica is a regular stop for our San Mateo County technician.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Back-bar cooler coil pitting from salt air. A Beverage-Air BB-series back-bar cooler in a Highway 1 brewpub loses cooling capacity as the salt-laden coastal air pits the condenser fins faster than a normal cleaning schedule can keep up with. I clean what can be cleaned, and tell you honestly when the fin stock is too far gone to hold airflow, then quote a coil replacement instead of chasing a losing battle.
Control board corrosion causing intermittent shutdowns. Moisture finds its way into control panels near the coast, and a corroded control board contact will cut a unit off and on with no clear pattern. We open the panel, check for green corrosion on the terminals, clean or replace the board, and reseal the panel opening better than it came from the factory.
Prep table evaporator drain pan rusting through. A steady salt fog will rust a steel drain pan through from the inside faster than the visible cabinet ever shows. Once that happens the unit leaks and the rail pans lose their base cooling. We replace the pan and check the rest of the sheet metal for the same wear before we close it back up.
