My Traulsen reach-in won't get below 45. What's wrong?

Usually a thermostat that's drifted out of calibration, a failed evaporator fan motor, or a condenser packed with grease. We diagnose the actual cause first, and you get the price in writing before anything starts.

Are you a Traulsen factory dealer?

No, and we don't claim to be. We're independent, we know these cabinets, and we stock the common failure parts.

How does the $99 diagnostic work?

It's a flat fee covering a full diagnostic on the cabinet, credited toward the repair. You get a written quote before we touch anything.

Traulsen in Richmond

Traulsen refrigeration in Richmond.

Macdonald Avenue and 23rd Street both run a fair number of Traulsen reach-ins and prep tables, cabinets built for a working kitchen and built so a tech can take them apart and actually fix them. When the cold side quits, these owners want someone who diagnoses the unit, not a parts-changer.

Common Richmond calls: a thermostat drifting out of calibration so a reach-in won't hold below 41, a door gasket worn out from a full shift of pulls, or a sealed-system leak on an older unit. We carry thermostats, gaskets, and fan motors on the truck.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Thermostat out of calibration. The most common Traulsen failure. The reach-in drifts warm or stops holding setpoint once the thermostat goes out of cal or quits. We test against an accurate reference, recalibrate or replace it, and confirm the box recovers.
Worn door gasket. On a busy Macdonald Avenue line a gasket gets torn and hardened fast, and once it stops sealing the compressor runs nonstop. It's one of the cheapest fixes on the cabinet. We stock the common Traulsen profiles.
Sealed-system leak on older units. Past 15 to 20 years, vibration and slow corrosion crack the sealed system open. We carry EPA #1279674151528 and do recovery, evacuation, and weigh-in in-house.
