Restaurants
A walk-in drifting warm on a Friday night is a stock loss with a deadline, and there is usually a health-code question waiting behind it.
Refrigeration is the one system in a restaurant that cannot wait. Every hour a cold room sits out of range is inventory at risk and a temperature log an inspector will read later, so the response has to be fast and the record has to exist.
The part worth knowing before you call is that a cold room losing temperature is frequently a door rather than a system. A split gasket, a dropped hinge or a closer that no longer pulls the door shut loses temperature exactly like a failing compressor, and that half we fix the same day.
What we get called for
Coordinated through licensed contractors
Florida requires a licensed contractor for this trade at any job size, with no exception for small jobs. TrionX scopes the work, verifies the licence and insurance, brings the contractor in, and handles scheduling, site access and the record afterwards.
Why TrionX
A worn gasket or a dropped hinge presents exactly like a refrigeration fault and costs a fraction to fix. Door hardware is in-house work for us, so that diagnosis is quick and it is right often enough to be worth doing first.
We take the model, the serial, the symptom and the log history before anyone is sent, so the licensed contractor arrives knowing what they are attending rather than making a diagnostic visit and returning with a part.
Photographs, the fault, the parts and the readings on arrival and completion. A health inspector asking about a temperature excursion wants exactly that, and so does a stock loss claim.
Common questions
No. Refrigeration requires a licensed contractor in Florida at any job size, with no exception for small jobs. We scope the fault, verify the licence and insurance, bring in a licensed refrigeration contractor who carries their own cover, and handle the scheduling, access and record.
The door. A split gasket, a dropped hinge or a closer that no longer pulls it shut loses temperature exactly like a failing system, and that is in-house work we can do the same day. If the door is sound, the fault is the system and we bring in a licensed contractor.
Dispatch runs 24 hours a day, because refrigeration is the failure with a clock on it. Tell us the unit, what the readings are doing and how long it has been drifting, since that shapes both the urgency and what the contractor brings.
Photographs, the equipment identified by model and serial, the fault found, what was replaced, and the readings on arrival and completion. That record is what answers an inspector about a temperature excursion and what supports a stock loss claim.

We check the door first, because a gasket or a hinge fixes the same day and costs a fraction. Where the fault is genuinely the system, a licensed refrigeration contractor takes it and we handle the scoping, the access and the record.
