Every piece of refrigeration equipment in a commercial kitchen fails in its own way, uses its own parts, and has its own page on this site. This is the directory. Armus Refrigeration repairs and maintains walk-in coolers and freezers, reach-in refrigerators and prep tables, bar and beverage coolers, standalone freezers, and ice machines across Massachusetts and Rhode Island, working out of 88 Mill St in New Bedford.
We are EPA 608 Universal certified, licensed in both states, and we answer the phone around the clock. One number covers everything on this page: 508-521-9477. Find the page below that matches your equipment and your problem.

Repair by Equipment Type
Six equipment categories, six dedicated pages. Each one covers the failure patterns, parts, and brands we see for that specific equipment. Match yours below.
Walk-In Cooler Repair
For the walk-in box holding your produce, dairy, and prep at 35 to 38 degrees. Door gaskets, evaporator fan motors, defrost faults, boxes that drift into the 40s overnight. Start at walk-in cooler repair.
Walk-In Freezer Repair
For walk-in freezer boxes that should be sitting between minus 10 and zero. Frost on the ceiling, iced-over evaporator coils, defrost heaters that quit, floor panels heaving. Go to walk-in freezer repair.
Commercial Refrigerator Repair
For reach-in refrigerators, prep tables, and undercounter units on the cook line. True, Beverage-Air, Turbo Air, and the rest of what is standing in a working kitchen. That page is commercial refrigerator repair.
Reach-In Cooler Repair
For the bar and beverage side of the house: back-bar coolers, keg boxes, and glass-door merchandisers that need to hold 36 to 40 degrees so the product sells. Head to reach-in cooler repair.
Commercial Freezer Repair
For standalone frozen equipment that is not a walk-in: reach-in freezers, chest freezers, glass-door frozen merchandisers, ice cream cabinets. That work lives at commercial freezer repair.
Ice Machine Repair
For Manitowoc, Hoshizaki, and Scotsman machines making cloudy ice, soft ice, or no ice at all. South Coast and Rhode Island water is hard enough that scale is half this trade. See ice machine repair.
Whole-Kitchen and Multi-Unit Coverage
Two pages for when the question is bigger than one piece of equipment.
Commercial Refrigeration Repair
The umbrella page. For operators running several units at once, grocery and convenience stores with cooler lines, and anyone who knows something is warm but not which category it falls under. Start with commercial refrigeration repair.
Restaurant Refrigeration Service
Written for restaurant owners and chefs specifically. How we handle the whole kitchen mix, from the low-boy under the grill to the walk-in out back, scheduled around your service hours. Read restaurant refrigeration service.
Planned Maintenance
Refrigeration Maintenance
For owners who are done paying for surprise failures. Maintenance contracts with scheduled coil cleaning, gasket and drain checks, and priority response when something does break anyway. Details and what a visit includes are at refrigeration maintenance.
Emergency Repair, Around the Clock
Emergency Refrigeration Repair
For equipment that is down right now with inventory inside it. Nights, weekends, holidays. What to do to protect product while the truck is rolling is on emergency refrigeration repair, or skip the reading and call 508-521-9477.
Not Sure Which Page You Need?
You do not have to diagnose your own equipment before calling. Tell us what the unit is, what it is doing, and what the thermometer reads, and we will tell you over the phone whether it can wait for a scheduled visit or needs a truck tonight. Sometimes the answer is a five-minute fix you can do yourself before we ever charge you a dime.
