Hoshizaki in Oakland

Hoshizaki refrigeration in Oakland.

Oakland keeps more kitchens running than anywhere else in the East Bay, and the Hoshizaki gear shows it. Temescal, Uptown, and Rockridge are packed with restaurants pushing prep tables all night. Jack London Square has the bars and breweries, where the cube head is the first thing to fail under a Friday crowd. Downtown runs hotels and office cafeterias, and out in the flats and Fruitvale the taquerias and corner stores live on a cube machine and a reach-in holding temp.

We service Hoshizaki as an independent shop, dispatched from San Ramon, seven days a week. The truck carries the parts that fail most, so a lot of jobs finish on the first visit. Diagnostic is $75, waived with the repair, written quote first.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

  • KM cubers scaling on Oakland water. Oakland's water is moderately hard, and on a busy Hoshizaki cube head that means scale on the evaporator and slow harvests. We descale, swap water filters, and tell you straight whether the unit needs a deep clean or a part. With the volume in Temescal and Jack London Square, a regular cleaning interval keeps the bin full.
  • Stuck hot-gas harvest valve. The most common no-ice call on a Hoshizaki is the hot-gas valve hung the wrong way, so the harvest cycle never finishes and the machine runs nonstop. We isolate the valve, check coil resistance against spec, and fit the OEM valve. We don't use aftermarket coils, they fail early on these.
  • Sushi cases and prep tables holding warm. Oakland has plenty of sushi counters, and Hoshizaki display cases and prep tables run a discharge-air thermistor that drifts warm with age. A case meant for 33 ends up at 41, a violation before a customer notices. We keep calibrated thermistors on the truck for a same-visit fix.

FAQ

Hoshizaki in Oakland questions, answered.

  • Can you prioritize a down ice machine during service?
    Yes. A dead Hoshizaki ice machine goes to the front of the line. Call (925) 999-4095, say it's an outage, and we'll prioritize it. We're open 7AM to 7PM, seven days, same number after hours.
  • Do you cover the bars and breweries at Jack London Square?
    Yes. The cube head and the back-bar coolers are the first things to fail under a weekend crowd, and we service all of it. We carry the common Hoshizaki failure parts on the truck for one-visit fixes.
  • Are you a Hoshizaki authorized dealer?
    No, we service Hoshizaki as an independent shop, no factory-authorization claim. We're Manitowoc-certified on ice machines, EPA 608 certified (#1279674151528), and R290 trained for the newer self-contained units.
