Hoshizaki in Los Altos Hills

Hoshizaki refrigeration in Los Altos Hills.

Los Altos Hills has no commercial district at all, the town is zoned that way on purpose, so the one real volume kitchen we service is Foothill College's cafeteria, running Hoshizaki equipment through a full academic calendar of student traffic. Everywhere else in town, the work is the estate homes on their acre-plus lots, a pool house bar or a home entertaining kitchen with a real ice machine instead of a countertop unit.

We service Hoshizaki as an independent shop and carry the common parts on the truck. Diagnostic is $99, credited toward the repair, written quote before any work starts.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

  • Foothill College cafeteria fan motor failures. The cafeteria equipment at Foothill College runs through a full semester of student meal traffic, and the evaporator fan motors on the reach-ins wear out from the duty cycle before anything else on the machine fails. I check fan motor amp draw against spec before I replace one, since a motor that's just noisy isn't always a motor that's actually failing.
  • Estate pool house ice machine install airflow. A Hoshizaki unit set into a pool house or an outdoor kitchen island in Los Altos Hills sometimes doesn't get real clearance around the condenser, and it runs hot and short-cycles as a result. I check the install and clean the coil before assuming the compressor is the problem.
  • Scale buildup on lightly used entertaining bars. A home bar ice machine that only runs hard during a dinner party still needs a filter change and a descale on a normal interval, even with light use, since minerals settle whether the machine is working hard or sitting idle. I set an interval based on the water supply, not just how often the owner says they use it.

FAQ

Hoshizaki in Los Altos Hills questions, answered.

  • Do you cover Los Altos Hills even without a commercial district?
    Yes. Most of our work here is the estate homes, not restaurants, since the town doesn't zone for commercial. Our technician is based on the Peninsula, so response here is the same as our other Peninsula stops.
  • Does a lightly used home ice machine still need regular service?
    Yes. Minerals settle in the system whether the machine runs constantly or just on weekends, so I still set a filter and descale interval even for a bar that only sees occasional use.
  • Are you Hoshizaki authorized?
    No, we're an independent shop, not a Hoshizaki dealer. Manitowoc ice machines is the one brand with our factory training. We carry EPA 608 certification (#1279674151528) and CSLB #1136642.
