Hoshizaki in Pleasant Hill

Hoshizaki refrigeration in Pleasant Hill.

Pleasant Hill packs a lot of food service into a small footprint. Downtown stays busy, the Contra Costa Boulevard and Monument stretch is wall-to-wall retail and quick-serve, and the markets and grocers around the city run Hoshizaki coolers and ice that can't take a day off. When a KM head quits during a Friday rush, the clock starts.

We dispatch out of San Ramon and run Pleasant Hill regularly, usually north through Walnut Creek and over from Lafayette. We service Hoshizaki as an independent shop and stock the common parts on the truck. Diagnostic is $75, waived with the repair, written quote first.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

  • Contra Costa hard water on KM heads. Contra Costa County water runs moderately hard, and that scale is what kills ice machines here. Thin or cloudy ice, low harvest, long cycles, and slime in the bin all trace back to mineral buildup and dirty filters on a Hoshizaki head. We descale, replace the filter on a schedule, and a machine that was barely keeping up starts producing again.
  • Stuck harvest valve. When a Hoshizaki cube head runs nonstop but won't drop ice, the hot-gas harvest valve is usually hung the wrong way. We isolate it, check coil resistance against spec, and fit OEM. We skip aftermarket coils, they fail early on these units.
  • Reach-ins and prep tables losing temp. Hoshizaki reach-ins and back-bar coolers swing warm on worn door gaskets, failed fan motors, or a stuck defrost timer, and prep tables drift in the rail. We carry fan motors, relays, thermostats, defrost heaters, and gasket stock, so a good share of calls finish the first trip.

FAQ

Hoshizaki in Pleasant Hill questions, answered.

  • Why does my Hoshizaki ice come out thin and cloudy?
    On Pleasant Hill's moderately hard Contra Costa water, that's mineral scale on the evaporator plus a dirty water filter. We descale, replace the filter, and set a cleaning schedule. Clean, full cubes come back without a new machine.
  • Can you reach Pleasant Hill same day?
    Usually. We run the area regularly, north through Walnut Creek and over from Lafayette, so a down Hoshizaki ice machine gets a same-day slot when the route allows. We run 7AM to 7PM, seven days, same number after hours.
  • Are you a Hoshizaki authorized dealer?
    No, we service Hoshizaki as an independent shop, no factory-authorization claim. We're Manitowoc-certified on ice machines, EPA 608 certified (#1279674151528), and R290 trained.
