Traulsen in Orinda
Traulsen refrigeration in Orinda.
Orinda is a small town with a high bar. Most of the commercial work sits around Theatre Square and the shops by the BART station, with the country club and a few restaurants out along Moraga Way filling in the rest. Those kitchens run Traulsen reach-ins and prep lines, and when one warms up before a dinner rush the loss is real and immediate. We're dispatched out of San Ramon, so the run over the hill through the tunnel is short for us.
Traulsen is the cabinet we like getting a call about, built for a working kitchen and built so a tech can fix it. The Orinda calls track the gear: a thermostat drifted out of calibration, an evaporator iced over from a stuck defrost, a condenser fan motor seized, a door gasket that's quit sealing, and on older units a sealed-system leak. We carry fan motors, relays, thermostats, gaskets, and start components on the truck, so a good share get fixed on the first visit.
Common repairs we do
What we close on the truck.
- Thermostat drift. The reach-in drifts warm once the thermostat goes out of calibration or quits. We test it, recalibrate or replace, and confirm the box recovers. Labor from about $250 plus the part.
- Door gasket that's quit sealing. A gasket that's stopped sealing runs the compressor nonstop and drives the box warm. It's one of the cheapest fixes on the cabinet and it protects the compressor. We stock common Traulsen profiles.
- Ice machine scale over time. Orinda's water comes off the EBMUD system and isn't brutally hard, but scale still builds over time and is the usual reason the cuber near the Traulsen line stops making clean ice or cycles slow. We descale, swap water valves and harvest probes, and set a cleaning interval.

FAQ
Traulsen in Orinda questions, answered.
-
Should I repair my Traulsen or replace it?
Repair almost always wins. These are built to be taken apart and fixed, and the failures come from age, not bad design. We give you a straight written quote so you can compare the repair to a new cabinet. -
Do you handle Traulsen refrigerant work?
Yes, in-house. We recover, pull a proper vacuum, and weigh in the charge under EPA #1279674151528. Leaks surface past 15 to 20 years. A full rebuild can run up to $4,000 with a 2-year warranty. -
How fast can you reach Orinda?
Short run over the hill through the tunnel from San Ramon. We put commercial outages first, run 7 AM to 7 PM seven days, and waive the $75 diagnostic when you move ahead with the repair.
