How do you get from San Ramon to Union City?

We take I-680 south over the Sunol grade toward Fremont, then cut across on Highway 84 and Decoto Road into Union City. Depending on Hayward and Fremont traffic that runs about 30 to 40 minutes, which keeps Union City an easy run for us to schedule.

My Scotsman keeps flashing the clean and descale light. Does the machine need replacing?

Usually not. On Scotsman Prodigy units that indicator points to scale and a purge or sensor issue, not a dead machine. We descale, service the WaterSense purge, and reset the control, which clears most of these.

Are you licensed and certified to handle the refrigerant?

Yes. We hold CSLB #1136642 and our techs are EPA 608 certified for refrigerant work, and we run an independent shop rather than a factory-authorized Scotsman contractor.

Scotsman in Union City

Scotsman refrigeration in Union City.

We repair Scotsman ice machines throughout Union City, from the chain restaurants and grocery delis around Union Landing to the taquerias along Decoto Road and the industrial kitchens near Alvarado-Niles. We handle Scotsman nugget, flake, and Prodigy cube units.

Union City runs warmer than the coast, and the kitchens behind Union Landing run hot through a lunch rush, so a Scotsman condenser loads up with grease and lint fast. When head pressure climbs, freeze cycles stretch and ice output drops. We show up with a stocked van and clear the real cause instead of guessing.

Our shop is independent, EPA 608 certified, and holds CSLB #1136642. We do not claim Scotsman factory authorization. The diagnostic is $75, waived once you approve the repair, and we hand you a written quote before we touch the machine.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Dirty condenser and long freeze cycles. Behind Union Landing the kitchens run hot, and Scotsman Prodigy Plus cube machines pull grease and lint into the condenser. Head pressure rises, the freeze cycle stretches, and daily ice drops off. We pull and clean the condenser, check the fan motor, and confirm the machine cycles back to spec.
WaterSense purge valve stuck and scale buildup. Union City water leaves scale on the Scotsman evaporator, and a stuck WaterSense purge valve keeps recycling dirty water. Cubes come out small and soft. We descale, rebuild or replace the purge valve, and reset the Vari-Smart control.
Meridian nugget dispenser motor and agitator. Fast-casual spots run Scotsman HID Meridian nugget dispensers hard, and the dispense motor and agitator wear until nugget ice jams or stops feeding. We replace the dispense motor, clear the agitator, and check the bin level sensor.
