True Refrigeration Repair in Seattle, WA

The T-23, T-49 and T-72 line is the backbone of most kitchens we walk into. One, two and three-section solid and glass door cabinets, in both cooler and freezer configurations. On older units we spend most of our time on evaporator fan motors, defrost termination, and door hardware — the cabinets themselves rarely fail. See commercial refrigeration repair.

TSSU sandwich units and TPP pizza prep tables live in the hottest, wettest part of the kitchen and take the most abuse of any True product. Pan rail temperature complaints are the number one call — usually airflow, gasket, or a condenser choked with flour and grease rather than a refrigeration fault. See prep table refrigeration repair.

GDM-26, GDM-49 and GDM-72 merchandisers in convenience stores, delis, and grab-and-go coolers. Common calls are door heater and anti-sweat faults causing condensation on the glass, LED lighting failures, and hinge cartridge wear from constant customer use. See display case cooler repair.

TUC undercounters and TWT worktops used as line refrigeration and secondary storage. Tight condenser access makes these prone to airflow restriction, and the compact refrigeration package runs closer to its limit than a full-height cabinet.

TBB back bar coolers and bottle coolers behind Seattle bars. Sliding door track wear, drain issues, and condenser fouling from carpet dust are the recurring themes. Bar equipment gets opened hundreds of times a shift, so door hardware and gaskets wear faster here than anywhere else.

Curved and straight glass deli cases and refrigerated bakery displays. These are humidity-sensitive by design, so complaints usually present as product quality problems before they present as temperature problems.

True wine cabinets and beverage centers in restaurants and tasting rooms, where temperature stability matters more than raw cooling capacity. See wine cooler repair.

On True cabinets this is most often a fouled condenser coil or a failing evaporator fan motor rather than a refrigerant problem. The condenser on many T-Series units sits behind a front grille that gets skipped during cleaning. We check airflow and coil condition before anyone touches a gauge set.

Usually a defrost fault — a failed defrost thermostat, a timer or control that is not initiating, or a heater that has gone open. On prep tables it is just as often a door or lid gasket letting warm humid kitchen air in continuously.
