Reach-In Cooler, Prep Table & Undercounter Refrigeration Repair

Reach-in coolers, make tables, and undercounter refrigeration units are essential to your kitchen’s daily flow. When they stop working, food quality, safety, and service all take a hit. At SSI Services, we deliver fast, certified repair and maintenance for all types of line refrigeration—so your team can stay focused on the line, not the temperature.

Why Line Refrigeration Can’t Afford to Fail

When your prep table stops cooling or your reach-in can’t hold temperature, it doesn’t just slow down service—it puts product and safety at risk. These low-profile units are critical for fast-moving kitchens where ingredients need to stay cold and close at hand.

At SSI Services, we specialize in line refrigeration repair, including reach-in coolers, sandwich prep tables, undercounter units, and drawer-style refrigeration. From fast fixes to full rebuilds, our certified team keeps your cold stations running right—day and night.

The Cost of Ignoring Reach-In-Cooler Issues

Line refrigeration often gets overlooked—until it fails. But even a minor issue like a bad door gasket or dirty condenser can cause:

  • Spoiled food and inventory loss
  • Health code violations and fines
  • Slow service or foodborne illness risk
  • Increased energy costs
  • Shortened equipment lifespan

Addressing small issues early prevents major emergencies later. Proactive repair is always the smarter investment.

Reach-In Cooler & Prep Table FAQ

 

What are the most common issues with reach-in coolers or prep tables?

The most frequent problems include inconsistent temperature, frost buildup, door seal damage, compressor failure, and clogged condenser coils. Any of these can lead to food spoilage or safety concerns if not addressed quickly.

Do you service sandwich tables and drawer-style refrigeration units?

Yes! We repair sandwich prep tables, drawer-style chef bases, undercounter coolers, and refrigerated worktops. Whether it’s a mechanical issue or a cleaning/airflow problem, we’ve seen it all.

Can you fix both the box and the refrigeration system?

Absolutely. Our certified techs are trained to repair both the cabinet structure (gaskets, hinges, doors) and the cooling components (compressors, evaporators, thermostats). We also handle full replacement when needed.

How often should I schedule maintenance for my line refrigeration?

We recommend quarterly maintenance for high-use kitchens. Keeping coils clean and door seals tight can prevent most emergencies and extend the life of your unit.

Do you offer emergency repair for line refrigeration?

Yes—SSI Services provides 24/7 emergency response for prep tables, reach-ins, and undercounter units. If your unit goes down mid-shift, we’ll work to get you back up fast and avoid food loss.
