Hoshizaki in San Mateo

Hoshizaki refrigeration in San Mateo.

San Mateo's 25th Avenue and B Street restaurant rows carry a dense strip of independent kitchens, and a good number of them run Hoshizaki KM cube heads behind the bar or an undercounter ice maker on the line. This is also where our Peninsula technician actually lives and works out of, so San Mateo is not a stop on a longer route, it's home ground. We service Hoshizaki as an independent shop, no dealer claim.

Being based here means we usually know the building and sometimes the equipment before we walk in. Common Hoshizaki failures in San Mateo track the rest of the Peninsula, scale on the KM water circuit, a harvest valve that hangs, a reach-in gasket gone soft after years of steady door traffic on a busy row. We carry the parts on the truck for most of these. Diagnostic is $99, credited toward the repair, written quote first.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

  • KM water circuit scale on 25th Avenue. The restaurants along 25th Avenue run their KM heads long hours, and the mineral content in the feed water scales the float and the water valve over time. The first sign is usually slower ice production before the machine stops dropping cubes altogether. We descale the circuit and replace the fouled parts, off the truck.
  • Harvest valve failures on B Street bars. A hot-gas harvest valve stuck the wrong way leaves a Hoshizaki KM head running without ever dropping ice, or dropping a thin, cloudy cube instead of a clear one. We test coil resistance against spec and swap the OEM valve rather than fit an aftermarket coil that tends to fail early.
  • Beverage dispenser cold-draw loss during rush. A soda or iced-tea dispenser on a busy B Street line loses its cold draw during a long lunch or dinner rush when the compressor or cold plate can't keep pace. We check the compressor, cold plate, and syrup lines together rather than guessing at one part.

FAQ

Hoshizaki in San Mateo questions, answered.

  • Is your technician really based in San Mateo, or is that just marketing?
    Our Peninsula technician lives and works out of San Mateo, so calls here and in Belmont, Foster City, and the towns around us do not wait on a truck crossing over from San Ramon.
  • Are you a Hoshizaki dealer?
    No, we handle Hoshizaki as an independent shop, no dealer relationship claimed. Ice machine work runs under our Manitowoc certification, general refrigeration under EPA 608 (#1279674151528), and the license is CSLB #1136642.
  • Do you cover the restaurants on both 25th Avenue and B Street?
    Yes, both rows and everything around them in San Mateo. Diagnostic is $99, credited toward the repair, and we give a written quote before any work starts.
