Industrial Refrigeration System Design
Our engineering team creates customized refrigeration system designs for ammonia and CO2-based industrial applications. We specialize in new facility construction, system upgrades, and retrofitting obsolete plants using cutting-edge technologies. Our solutions optimize energy efficiency while ensuring compliance with safety and environmental regulations. The design process incorporates 3D modeling, thermal analysis, and lifecycle cost calculations to deliver optimal performance.
Compressor Rebuild Services
We provide comprehensive compressor rebuild services including in-house repairs at three specialized facilities. Our technicians perform vibration analysis, oil analysis, and alignment services to extend equipment lifespan. All rebuilds use OEM parts and include a 2-year limited warranty. We maintain inventory of remanufactured compressors for emergency replacements and work with major OEMs to access new equipment when needed.
Firestop System Installation
Our firestop specialists implement UL-listed firestop systems that maintain fire-rated assembly integrity. We provide engineering judgments for unique installations, third-party inspections, and compliance documentation. Services include system design, material selection, and code-compliant installation to prevent fire, smoke, and toxic gas spread through penetrations in walls and floors.
Preventive Maintenance Programs
We develop customized preventive maintenance plans that include vibration analysis, oil sampling, and system performance testing. Our programs identify potential issues before failures occur, reducing downtime and extending equipment lifespan. Maintenance services cover all system components including compressors, condensers, evaporators, and control systems.
Emergency Repair Services
Our 24/7 emergency response team provides rapid diagnosis and repair of refrigeration system failures. Services include system pump-down, component replacement, and recommissioning.
