When your ice machine stops producing, your bar slows down, your kitchen scrambles and your customers notice. Birmingham Refrigeration Repair diagnoses and repairs commercial ice machines of every type — modular cube machines, undercounter units, nugget and flake machines, and ice dispensers — from every major brand.
We are a repair-only company. We don’t sell equipment, so our only goal is getting the machine you already own back to full production. Most repairs are completed on the first visit.
Ice machines are the most maintenance-hungry equipment in any kitchen. Mineral scale, slime and dirty condensers steadily choke production until the machine fails. Our scheduled maintenance visits include cleaning, descaling, sanitizing and system checks that keep your ice clean and your machine producing. Ask about a maintenance plan when you call.
Whether it’s a middle-of-the-night emergency or a scheduled tune-up, Birmingham Refrigeration Repair keeps Birmingham businesses cool. Call (205) 223-8093 or request service online today.
Machine runs but makes far less ice than it should — scale, dirty coils or refrigerant.
Machine won't start a cycle, is stuck in harvest or shows an error code.
Evaporator icing over into a solid block instead of harvesting.
Failed inlet valves, cracked reservoirs or clogged drains.
Scale, slime or filter problems affecting ice quality.
Compressor won't start, control board failures or tripped breakers.
In most of the Birmingham metro we can have a technician on site the same day, and we offer 24/7 emergency service for after-hours breakdowns.
We service all major commercial ice machine brands and every configuration — modular cube heads, undercounter units, nugget and flake machines, and ice-and-water dispensers.
Small, cloudy or hollow cubes usually point to scale buildup, a water supply problem or low refrigerant. We’ll diagnose the cause and get you back to clear, full-size ice.
Most manufacturers recommend a full cleaning and sanitizing at least every six months, and more often in hard-water areas or high-volume kitchens. Our maintenance plans handle this on a schedule.
In most cases a repair costs far less than replacement, and we’ll always tell you honestly which makes more sense. Because we don’t sell equipment, we have no incentive to push a replacement.
