Hoshizaki in South San Francisco
Hoshizaki refrigeration in South San Francisco.
South San Francisco still calls itself The Industrial City, and the hillside sign has not changed, but the industry on the east side of 101 is biotech now, not manufacturing. Those campuses run their own cafeterias and small kitchens for staff, and a fair number lean on Hoshizaki undercounter ice makers and beverage units to keep up with a full building at lunch. West of the freeway, Grand Avenue and the blocks around it run a solid strip of independent restaurants, several with a Hoshizaki KM cube head behind the bar. We work both sides of 101 as an independent shop.
The failures do not change much between a Grand Avenue kitchen and a campus cafeteria on the east side, an ice machine that stops dropping cubes, a reach-in that drifts warm, a beverage dispenser losing its cold draw during a long lunch rush. We carry the parts for the common Hoshizaki failures on the truck, and diagnostic is $99, credited toward the repair, written quote first.
Common repairs we do
What we close on the truck.
- Cafeteria-grade duty cycle wearing out harvest valves. A cafeteria kitchen east of 101 runs its Hoshizaki ice maker hard through a tight lunch window, then leaves it mostly idle the rest of the day. That start-stop pattern is hard on the hot-gas harvest valve, and we see valves fail here sooner than in a restaurant that runs a steadier pace all evening. We test coil resistance against spec and swap the OEM valve rather than patch it.
- KM scale in Grand Avenue's older buildings. A number of the restaurant spaces on Grand Avenue sit in older buildings with plumbing that has not been updated in a while, and mineral content in the feed water scales the KM head's float and water valve faster than newer construction sees. We descale the unit and change out whatever has scaled past a simple cleaning.
- Beverage dispensers losing cold draw. Fountain and iced-tea dispensers in the campus cafeterias run for hours during lunch, and when the compressor or the cold plate loses efficiency, the drink comes out warm before the rush even ends. We check the compressor, the cold plate, and the syrup lines together, since a dispenser problem is rarely just one part.

FAQ
Hoshizaki in South San Francisco questions, answered.
-
Do you cover the biotech campuses east of 101 as well as Grand Avenue?
Yes, we work both sides of the freeway. Building access on the campus side sometimes runs through a facilities office, and we carry our certificate of insurance so that clears ahead of the visit. -
Are you authorized by Hoshizaki?
No, we are an independent shop, not a factory dealer. We hold Manitowoc certification on ice machines, EPA 608 certification under #1279674151528, and CSLB license #1136642. -
How does response work for South San Francisco?
Our Peninsula technician is based in San Mateo, a short run up 101 from here, and South San Francisco sits on the same route as San Bruno and Daly City. We do not promise same day on every call, but a dead ice machine on a Grand Avenue restaurant line gets moved to the front of that day's schedule.
