Pierre Refrigeration Services repairs commercial refrigeration in Snellville and across Gwinnett County. Walk-ins, reach-ins, ice machines and display equipment can affect inventory and the day’s work when temperatures drift. Tell us the equipment type, current reading and what has changed; a diagnosis can identify the cause and the next repair decision.
Refrigeration and HVAC symptoms, and how long you have
A temperature reading, a tripped breaker, or a dining room that will not hold setpoint tells you more than a guess at the failed part. Use the symptoms below to decide what needs attention, then tell us what you have observed.
- Stop using it A gas smell near equipment — leave, then call the gas utility before anyone else
- Stop using it A cooler or freezer holding product above 41°F, the FDA Food Code cold-holding limit
- Call today A walk-in that holds overnight but drifts during service
- Call today Ice machine output falling off, or cubes coming out soft or hollow
- Call today The dining room will not hold setpoint through a dinner service
- Monitor it Electricity cost climbing with no change to hours, covers or menu
- Monitor it Ice machine output down, or cubes coming out cloudy or soft
Restaurants get both trades on one call
Restaurant operators can discuss refrigeration, kitchen ventilation, and HVAC with Pierre on one call. Explain what is happening across cold storage and air so the service request captures the full problem, including any effect on food storage or service.
Diagnose before replacing
A walk-in or rooftop unit that fails does not automatically mean a new unit. Pierre measures what actually failed — airflow, controls, charge, electrical — then recommends repair when the equipment still has life, or replacement when the sealed system or parts situation makes that the honest option. That diagnosis is the first job on a commercial call.
When the answer is a new unit, Pierre supplies and installs it: see commercial refrigeration installation and replacement and commercial HVAC installation and replacement. Maintenance makes the next failure less likely: see refrigeration maintenance and HVAC maintenance.
What does that symptom mean?
- Why Is My Kitchen Exhaust Hood Not Pulling Smoke?
- Why Is My Rooftop Unit Running But Not Cooling?
- Why Is My Reach-In Cooler Not Cooling?
- Why Is My Walk-In Freezer Warming Up?
- Why Has My Ice Machine Stopped Making Ice?
- Why Is My Walk-In Cooler Freezing My Product?
- Why Is My Walk-In Cooler Not Holding Temperature?
Services shaped around your operation
-
Restaurants & Foodservice
In a restaurant, refrigeration and HVAC fail into each other: the walk-in, the ice machine and the make-up air all share one hot kitchen. Pierre Refrigeration Services covers both, so a fault that crosses them is handled on one call.
-
Schools & Institutional Facilities
Schools, healthcare facilities and institutional campuses run HVAC across classrooms, gyms, offices and dining halls, plus refrigeration in the kitchen. Pierre Refrigeration Services covers rooftop units, split systems, heating and ventilation building-wide, along with the walk-ins and ice machines the kitchen depends on. A classroom off setpoint is a call today.
-
Convenience Stores
A convenience store runs on refrigeration it cannot take offline — beverage walls, reach-in door coolers, a walk-in cooler or beer cave, and an ice machine that carries a high-margin line all summer. Pierre Refrigeration Services covers that refrigeration and the sales-floor HVAC alongside it across Snellville and Gwinnett County. A door cooler above 41°F is losing product every hour it stays there.
-
Grocery & Supermarkets
Grocery stores and supermarkets depend on refrigeration more than almost any other business — display cases, walk-in coolers, walk-in freezers, and ice machines all running simultaneously. Pierre Refrigeration Services repairs refrigeration and HVAC for grocery operators across metro Atlanta, and measures the fault before recommending a replacement.

Why operators call Pierre
-
Measure the fault first
Symptoms look alike from the floor. A diagnosis separates a cheap wear item from a sealed-system failure before anyone prices a replacement.
-
Cold and air under one relationship
For restaurants and other foodservice operators, commercial refrigeration and HVAC can be discussed on the same call so a fault that crosses systems does not become two vendor schedules.
-
20 years in the trade behind the work
Owner Don Pierre has spent 20 years in commercial refrigeration and HVAC, and established the business in 2014.
-
Commercial duty cycles, not domestic ones
A walk-in, rooftop unit or ice machine can affect inventory, staff comfort and the day's schedule. The service conversation starts with the equipment, its symptoms and the consequence for your business.
Questions operators actually ask
- How cold does a walk-in actually have to be?
- Cold holding under the FDA Food Code is 41°F or below, so a box drifting above that puts product and an inspection at risk at the same time. Verify the current Georgia requirement with your local health authority, because jurisdictions set their own enforcement.
- How often should condenser coils be cleaned in a kitchen?
- Twice a year is a floor rather than a maximum in grease-laden air. Kitchen exhaust pulls airborne grease onto every coil in the building, and a fouled condenser cannot reject heat, so the unit runs longer for the same result and the bill moves before the temperature does.
- Do you replace equipment, or only repair it?
- Repair when the unit is worth repairing, and a straight answer when it is not. That judgement comes after a technician has measured the system, which is why nobody can give it to you over the phone.
