Refrigeration in Millbrae.

Millbrae’s refrigeration work sits mostly on the commercial side: the Broadway restaurant row and the food service around SFO run reach-ins, prep tables, ice machines, bottle coolers, and cold beverage dispensers. Many of the newer beverage units use R290 (propane) sealed systems, which are efficient but flammable and have to be handled by someone set up for them. Sealed-system and refrigerant work is licensed under CSLB #1136642.

Up toward the Hillsborough line there is a residential luxury layer with Sub-Zero columns and U-Line under-counter units. We diagnose first, put the quote in writing, and get equipment back online the same visit when parts allow.

Recent work in Millbrae

We diagnosed a no-cooling fault on a Crathco cold beverage dispenser at a Millbrae restaurant and traced it to a failed R290 compressor from a known manufacturer bad-batch, so the unit went back under factory warranty instead of a paid repair.

Twin-tank Crathco cold beverage dispenser in service, running Strawberry and Cucumber Limeade, at a Millbrae restaurant.

Inside the dispenser: the R290 sealed system, with the condenser, fan, and compressor, where the cooling fault was traced.

The Electrolux Professional nameplate: Crathco cold beverage dispenser, Model SR-25-16-290, R290 refrigerant.

The failed compressor: a GMCC EA59HMB-U on R290 that matched the manufacturer's known bad-batch.
