True in Union City
True refrigeration in Union City.
Union City packs a lot of food service into a small footprint. Union Landing keeps a wall of chain kitchens busy off the freeway, and the restaurants and Asian groceries along Alvarado-Niles and the Decoto district run True equipment in tight back-of-house spaces. We service that True gear, and we know how it fails in a warm inland box.
We are based in San Ramon, EPA 608 certified, and licensed under CSLB #1136642. We work on True as an independent shop, so we fix the unit on its actual problem and give you a written quote first. The diagnostic is $75, waived when you approve the repair.
Union City sits inland off I-880 and gets warmer than the Peninsula, which is hard on condensers that are already crowded against a wall. A True worktop or under-counter that cooled fine in spring will start to struggle in a hot kitchen once the coil loses airflow, and that is the call we take most often out here.
Common repairs we do
What we close on the truck.
- TUC under-counter pooling water and warming up. True TUC under-counters in tight prep lines back up when the drain line clogs with debris and the pan overflows. Warm boxes usually pair that with a condenser jammed against a wall with no room to breathe. We clear and flush the drain, pull and clean the condenser coil, and check the evaporator so the unit drains clean and holds temperature again.
- TWT worktop condenser fan motor seized. On a True TWT worktop, a seized or noisy ECM condenser fan motor drops airflow across the coil and pushes head pressure up until the box runs warm. We test the fan motor, replace it with the correct 800306-style ECM part when needed, and clean the coil so the compressor is not fighting a wall of hot air in a busy Union Landing kitchen.
- TBB back bar bottle cooler not cooling. True TBB back bar coolers behind a bar lose temperature when the sliding-door gaskets wear out and the low-profile condenser clogs with dust and lint. We replace the gaskets, clean the condenser, and test the compressor start components before quoting any sealed-system work. Most bottle cooler calls are seals and airflow, not a failed compressor.

FAQ
True in Union City questions, answered.
-
How fast can you get to Union City from San Ramon?
We take I-680 south and drop down through Niles Canyon on Highway 84, or run 238 to 880 depending on traffic. It is a short hop, and Fremont and Newark are right next door on the same route, so Union City sits in the middle of a corridor we already cover. We give you a real arrival window when we schedule. We do not claim same-day. -
Will you give me a price before you start?
Yes. We do not quote a repair price over the phone or before we see the unit. We come out for the $75 diagnostic, find the real fault, and then hand you a written quote. If you approve it, the $75 goes toward the repair. -
Which True units do you service?
We work on the full commercial line: T-series and TWT reach-ins, TSSU and TUC prep tables, TUC under-counters, TBB back bar bottle coolers, and GDM glass door merchandisers. We stock the common True parts, so most of these come back to temperature on the first visit.
