A restaurant in Schaumburg called us when their True prep table stopped cooling- a full rail of product and service coming up.

The unit was running constantly but never reaching temperature. The compressor was drawing current without building pressure, which is a classic sign it's failed internally rather than a control or airflow issue. We replaced the compressor, swapped the filter drier, evacuated and recharged the system, and cleaned the condenser coil while we were in there.

Before leaving, we ran the unit under load and verified it held proper temperature across both sections.

Prep tables usually give warning before a compressor goes - longer run cycles, temps creeping up in the afternoon, product warm at one end of the rail. Those are worth a service call, not a wait-and-see.

We provide commercial refrigeration and commercial kitchen equipment repair in Schaumburg, Arlington Heights, Buffalo Grove, and surrounding areas.

A grocery store in Des Plaines called us in when one of their reach-in coolers stopped holding temperature. The product was on the line, and the case kept climbing.

Diagnosis: The compressor on the condensing unit had failed completely, so the unit had no way to remove heat and cool the case.

We replaced the compressor, checked the refrigerant charge, and confirmed the case pulled back down to temperature and held steady before we left the store.

Compressor failure is one of the more serious refrigeration issues we see. It usually means product loss fast if it's not caught in time.

We provide commercial refrigeration repair in Des Plaines, Chicago, and the NW Suburbs.

A restaurant in Highland Park called us when their walk-in cooler started losing refrigerant and struggling to hold temperature.

Diagnosis pointed to a leak in the evaporator coil. When a coil starts leaking, the compressor has to work harder just to keep up, and the cooler never fully recovers between cycles. Left alone, this kind of leak usually ends in a bigger repair or a full system failure.

We replaced the evaporator coil, recharged the refrigerant system, and verified temperature recovery before leaving the site.

This is a good reminder that a refrigerant leak rarely fixes itself. Catching it early is what keeps a manageable repair from turning into lost inventory and an emergency call.

We provide commercial refrigeration repair in Highland Park and the surrounding North Shore area.

A deli and butcher shop in Vernon Hills called us when one of their refrigerated display cases stopped holding temperature.

For a shop selling fresh meat and prepared foods, a warm case means product at risk within hours.

Diagnostics pointed to a failed compressor.

The unit was running non-stop but couldn't reach safe holding temp.
We replaced the compressor, recharged the system, and verified full temperature pull-down before leaving.

This client is one of our regulars, and that made the job faster: we already knew the equipment and its service history.

That's the practical value of having one commercial repair company that knows your kitchen.

We provide commercial refrigeration repair in Vernon Hills, Buffalo Grove, Arlington Heights, and surrounding areas.

A grocery store in Northbrook called us when one of their reach-in coolers stopped holding temperature, with refrigerated product on the line.
The reach-in is served by a rooftop condensing unit, and diagnostics showed the system was running low on refrigerant.
A low charge almost always means a leak somewhere, so we ran leak detection on the lines, found the failure point, and repaired it before adding refrigerant back.
After recharging to spec, we verified temperatures and pressures to confirm the system was holding.
A slow refrigerant leak is one of those problems that stays quiet until the product is already at risk.
The longer it runs undercharged, the harder the compressor works, which turns a line repair into a much bigger bill.
We provide reach-in cooler repair and commercial refrigeration service in Northbrook and the surrounding NW suburbs.

A Chicago bakery called when their walk-in freezer stopped holding temperature. Product on the line, no time to wait.
The compressor had failed. The unit was still cycling but couldn't build enough pressure to maintain the refrigeration loop, and temps were climbing. We replaced the compressor, recharged the system, and confirmed the freezer was back to spec before leaving the site.

Compressor failure is one of the more involved refrigeration repairs. Catching it before full inventory loss makes a real difference in the total cost.

Tadam Tech provides commercial refrigeration repair in Chicago and the NW Suburbs.

A restaurant in Glenview called us after their walk-in cooler stopped cooling entirely.

The condensing unit compressor had failed, shutting down the system.
A failed compressor means zero cooling capacity.
With perishable inventory on the line, fast turnaround matters.
We diagnosed the system, replaced the failed compressor, recharged the refrigerant, and confirmed full temperature recovery before leaving the site.
Compressor failure is one of the more serious refrigeration breakdowns, but when caught without delay it doesn't have to mean lost inventory or extended downtime.

We service commercial refrigeration in Glenview, Northbrook, Skokie, and surrounding Chicago suburbs.

A country club in Lake Zurich called when their commercial walk-in cooler stopped holding temperature.

The culprit was a failed TXV - thermostatic expansion valve.
This valve controls refrigerant flow into the evaporator coil, and when it fails, the system loses the ability to regulate cooling regardless of how hard the compressor works.

It's a failure that can look like several different problems before you trace it to the valve.

We replaced the TXV and verified refrigerant flow and temperature recovery before wrapping up.

Tadam Tech provides commercial refrigeration repair in Lake Zurich, Buffalo Grove, Arlington Heights, and surrounding NW Suburbs.

A golf club in Des Plaines reached out when their Everest prep table stopped holding temperature, a problem that can't wait in a working kitchen.
After diagnosis, we located a refrigerant leak and found the evaporator coil had failed. The process: leak detection first, then evaporator coil replacement, system recharge, and a full temperature verification before the unit was returned to service.
Skipping any step in that sequence means the repair isn't complete - and the unit will fail again.
Tadam Tech provides commercial refrigeration repair in Des Plaines, Chicago, and throughout the NW Suburbs. Call (847) 232-4770.
