Restaurants, cafés, and markets in Irvine lose money the moment a walk-in, reach-in, or ice machine goes down — not just from the repair bill, but from spoiled product and lost service time. Alpha & Omega repairs commercial refrigeration equipment for Irvine businesses, and we prioritize these calls because every hour a unit sits warm gets more expensive. From Irvine Spectrum and the Diamond Jamboree/Woodbury restaurant corridor to office-park cafés near the business parks, we're a local Irvine company (family-owned since 2005) that responds fast because we're already in the area.

- Ice machines producing thin, cloudy, or no ice
Health-Code Compliance
Orange County health inspectors generally require cold-holding at 41°F or below. A Irvine kitchen running a unit warm — even briefly — risks a citation, and inspectors check temperature logs and thermometer placement as closely as the equipment itself. If a unit is drifting warm, treat it as inspection risk, not just an inconvenience, and get it looked at the same day.
Brands We Service
Not factory-authorized on any commercial brand — we're independent technicians who work on what's actually installed: True, Traulsen, Beverage-Air, Turbo Air, Delfield, Continental, Silver King, Randell, Atosa, Master-Bilt, Nor-Lake, Kolpak, Scotsman, Hoshizaki, Manitowoc, Perlick, U-Line, Marvel, and most other commercial refrigeration brands.
Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can you get to a failed commercial cooler in Irvine?
We prioritize commercial refrigeration calls because product loss gets expensive by the hour. Same-day service is usually available in Irvine — call (310) 600-8152 and tell us it's a commercial unit.
Do you work on equipment brands you're not factory-authorized for?
Yes. We're independent commercial refrigeration technicians, not a factory-authorized service center for any commercial brand. Compressors, controls, gaskets, and defrost systems work similarly across most manufacturers, so we service nearly every brand you'll find in a Irvine kitchen.
Do you repair ice machines in Irvine?
Yes — including Scotsman and Hoshizaki units: low or no ice production, scale buildup, water valve and pump issues, and refrigeration-side problems.
