Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if my walk-in is failing and I need to protect food?
1) Call an emergency refrigeration technician immediately. 2) Take and document temperature readings. 3) Move the most temperature-sensitive items (proteins, dairy) to alternate refrigeration first. 4) Contact your health department if temperatures approach 40°F+ — they can advise on food safety decisions. 5) Document all food temps for insurance claims. 6) Consider dry ice or portable refrigeration units for critical inventory. 7) Alert your supplier you may need emergency replacement products.
How long does commercial kitchen equipment installation take?
Installation time varies significantly: single appliance with existing connections 2-4 hours; single appliance requiring new utility connections 4-8 hours; full kitchen buildout 1-3 weeks depending on scope, permit timelines, and contractor scheduling. Work with your installer to create a realistic timeline that accounts for utility work, inspections, and health department walkthroughs before opening.
When should I repair versus replace commercial kitchen equipment?
Consider replacement when: repair costs exceed 50% of replacement cost, the equipment is over 75% of its expected lifespan, parts are no longer available, the equipment frequently breaks down, or energy costs are significantly higher than modern alternatives. Repair when: the equipment is relatively new, the repair is straightforward, and the total repair cost is well below replacement value. A qualified technician can help evaluate your specific situation.
