Industrial refrigeration in Písac

Písac draws visitors who come to browse its craft market and explore its ruins, and the town's businesses stock up for those busier days. Around the plaza and along the main streets there are cafés, bakeries, pastry shops, restaurants and guesthouses that depend on refrigeration, even though hardly anyone sees it.

A display case that won't cool spoils desserts and dairy right in front of the customer; a freezer that stops ruins several days' worth of stock; a cold room that loses its cooling forces you to cut back the menu. We work on this equipment:

• Display cases and display fridges for pastries, drinks and dairy.
• Commercial freezers and refrigerators.
• Small cold rooms and kitchen walk-in coolers.

When there are more visitors, the kitchen works flat out and the freezer doors open nonstop. That heavy use means the compressor, the fan and the drain have to be in good shape. A worn-out unit usually gives warning before it fails: it gets noisier, cools less, builds up ice where it shouldn't, or cycles on and off too often.

If you notice any of those signs, don't wait for your busiest day. Message us and we'll check the unit without rushing. We're open Monday to Saturday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., and we cover emergencies 24 hours a day.

Písac sits at about 3,000 meters above sea level, beside the Vilcanota River. At altitude the air is less dense, and air-cooled units get rid of less heat than at sea level. And with the rains from November to March, the humidity makes cleaning condensers, drip trays and drains all the more important.

Preventive maintenance normally includes:

• cleaning the condenser and the evaporator;
• checking the drain, to prevent leaks and bad smells;
• testing the thermostat and the electrical connections.
