Traulsen in South San Francisco

Traulsen refrigeration in South San Francisco.

South San Francisco built its name as 'The Industrial City,' and you still see that mix of work here: corporate cafeterias in the biotech campuses east of 101 running Traulsen roll-ins and reach-ins for a few thousand employees a day, and the older restaurant kitchens along Grand Avenue and El Camino Real running the same brand at a fraction of that volume. Both lean on cabinets that need to hold temp all shift without becoming a problem.

A campus cafeteria roll-in going down affects a lot of people fast, so those calls move up the list. We diagnose before we quote, the $99 diagnostic is credited toward the repair, and we carry the fan motors, gaskets, and defrost boards that come up most on Traulsen equipment.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

  • Roll-in defrost cycle not clearing on a campus cafeteria unit. A cafeteria roll-in that ices over and drifts warm on a busy campus is usually a defrost termination sensor gone bad or a board that lost its program. We test the sensor against the board before we replace either one.
  • Condenser coil loaded with grease near a kitchen exhaust hood. Older Grand Avenue kitchens tend to sit tight against their exhaust hoods, and a Traulsen reach-in parked nearby pulls in grease-heavy air that coats the condenser fast. A dirty coil runs the compressor long and hot, so we clean it and check head pressure before we look at anything else.
  • Compressor short-cycling on a tired start capacitor. Some of the older commercial buildings east of the Caltrain tracks still run wiring from decades back, and a Traulsen compressor on that circuit will short-cycle once its start capacitor weakens. We test the capacitor under load and replace it before it takes the compressor down with it.

FAQ

Traulsen in South San Francisco questions, answered.

  • How quickly can you get to a South San Francisco campus?
    Our Peninsula technician is based in San Mateo, a short run up 101 to South San Francisco. A down unit in a working cafeteria moves to the top of the schedule. We don't promise same-day, but we give a straight arrival window.
  • Do you work on biotech campus cafeteria equipment?
    Yes. We service the Traulsen reach-ins and roll-ins in corporate dining kitchens the same way we service a restaurant line, real diagnosis first, written quote before any repair.
  • Are you factory-authorized for Traulsen?
    No, we're an independent commercial refrigeration shop, EPA 608 certified and licensed under CSLB #1136642. The one brand we hold factory training on is Manitowoc, for ice machines.
