Commercial Refrigeration
Dirty coils, worn gaskets and failing fan motors give warning signs long before a box goes warm. Quarterly visits from Gary Sharpe, the licensed contractor who owns Langston’s, catch them early and leave you a written service log every time.
At a glance
Why this happens in Florida
In Northeast Florida, commercial refrigeration works against heat and humidity most of the year. Condensing units, reach-ins and ice machines reject heat into warm air month after month, so wear adds up faster.
Kitchen grease, lint and dust coat condenser coils steadily. A coil that is half blocked keeps running, just hotter and longer, until a fan motor or compressor gives out on a busy day.
Four visits a year means coils get cleaned before they choke and worn parts get flagged while you still have time to plan the repair.
What we check
After each visit you get a written service log for every unit: the temperatures and readings taken, the work done, and anything that needs attention. Keep it with your records so you can show a health inspector what was done and when.
Between visits, keep product clear of evaporator fan covers, keep doors and lids closed, and note any unit that runs warm. Those notes help us find the cause faster.
The FDA Food Code also expects each cold-holding unit to have a thermometer placed to read the warmest part of the box. We check those against our own instruments on every visit.
How the job runs
Call (904) 467-1100, Monday through Saturday, 8 AM to 8 PM. Plan pricing depends on how many units you have and what kind they are.
Gary lists every unit at your location and records a baseline reading for each one on the first visit.
Visits repeat every quarter with a fresh log. Any repair that turns up gets a written quote before work starts.

Straight answers
Call (904) 467-1100 for plan pricing. It depends on how many walk-ins, reach-ins, prep tables and ice machines you have.
Kitchen grease and lint can foul a condenser coil well within a year, especially through a hot summer. Quarterly visits keep coils clean and catch worn parts before they fail.
For each unit, the temperatures and readings we took, the work done, and anything that needs attention. You keep a copy to show what was done and when.
Ice machines can be included, with descaling, sanitizing and water filter changes when they are due. Most manufacturers call for cleaning at least every six months.
We show you the reading or the worn part and give you a written quote before any work starts. Nothing gets replaced without your approval.
