Is commercial refrigeration repair worth the cost?
February 1, 2019
Taking care of your commercial refrigeration units is an important part of many industries. Broken or malfunctioning refrigeration units can be costly. These problems usually result in high energy and water consumption rates or the loss of perishable goods.
One way to avoid these problems is to contact a professional for repairs. However, hiring a professional isn’t free, so you may be wondering if it’s worth it.
You get what you pay for
First of all, we must stress that hiring a professional to fix your refrigeration units is absolutely worth it. Allowing your refrigeration to continue running when one of its components is malfunctioning costs you a lot of money in energy and utility bills. Plus, the faulty component can cause other parts to overwork, which can eventually damage the entire system.
Second, there are different options for professionals you can work with to fix your units. The challenge, though, is choosing the right one for you. Some businesses offer repair services but don’t partner with you for the long run.
When it comes to choosing a commercial refrigeration repair service provider, you should look for a team that provides:
- Thorough inspection — You can always hire a repair service to come in and fix the immediate problem, but if they don’t inspect your whole facility, they may miss other important symptoms of the issue that created your problem. A team that offers a thorough inspection of your facilities can help you make better decisions about what kind of work needs to be completed.
- Comprehensive design and engineering — For extensive repairs, you may need to redesign some features of your system. A team with designers and engineers can help you through this process.
- Installation and retrofitting services — Sometimes, the best repair is to replace or update outdated units. This can help save you overhead costs in the long run versus outdated machines that keep your energy consumption rates high.
- Regular maintenance — You should trust a repair service who is willing to stick by your side in the long run. This team will know you, your facilities and equipment and your goals better than a one-time repair service. The regular maintenance that this kind of service can offer may help prevent future issues that require last-minute repairs.
