When you call, let us know the situation — including what is at risk — so we can prioritize correctly. Call (760) 594-1125 right now if you have a refrigeration failure.
What are the most common commercial refrigeration problems you repair?
The most common issues include compressor failure, refrigerant leaks, condenser coil problems (especially in desert climates where coils collect dust rapidly), evaporator coil icing, door gasket and seal failures, defrost system malfunctions, and thermostat or controller issues. We carry common parts and refrigerants on our service vehicles to resolve most issues in a single visit.
Do you service walk-in coolers and freezers?
Yes — walk-in cooler and freezer repair is one of our primary specialties. We work on all major brands and styles, from small restaurant walk-ins to large commercial cold storage rooms. We also service the refrigeration equipment in food processing facilities in Tolleson and other industrial areas across the West Valley.
What should I do if my walk-in cooler temperature is rising?
Act immediately. Check the thermostat setting and confirm the unit is powered on and the condenser fan is running. If the unit is running but temperature is rising, there may be a refrigerant leak, compressor issue, or condenser problem. Move any temperature-sensitive inventory to backup cooling if available, and call Altered Air at (760) 594-1125 right away — do not wait.
Do you service refrigeration systems in food processing plants and warehouses?
Yes. This is a significant part of our commercial refrigeration business, particularly in the Tolleson industrial corridor and along I-10.
