Equipment categories we service (and common examples)

Nextech’s offering includes commercial kitchen equipment service and repair, commercial food equipment (hotside) services, and commercial refrigeration services. The specific units supported can depend on the manufacturer, model, configuration, and parts availability.

Common examples in the industry include:

  • Hotside/cooking: ovens, ranges, griddles, fryers, steamers, warmers/holding equipment, and similar heat-producing appliances.
  • Cold-side/refrigeration: walk-in coolers/freezers, reach-in refrigerators/freezers, and related refrigeration components (controls, fans, defrost systems, refrigerant-circuit issues).

Hotside (commercial cooking) equipment repairs

Hotside equipment is your cookline and other heat-producing appliances. Repairs in this category commonly involve (in general industry terms) ignition components, gas valves, thermostats/controls, heating elements, safety devices, and electrical issues.

If a unit is not heating, not igniting, cycling off, or producing inconsistent temperatures, those symptoms are usually enough to start the coverage check and route the request to the right service type. For terminology help, see Nextech’s explainer on what hotside equipment is.

Commercial refrigeration equipment repairs

Cold-side equipment includes the systems that keep product within safe temperature ranges. In hot weather, refrigeration systems can be under more stress due to higher ambient temperatures and heat load, so it helps to capture clear operating details when you report the problem.

Common examples in the industry include: walk-in coolers/freezers, reach-in refrigeration/freezer units, and supporting components like controls, condenser/evaporator fans, and defrost systems. For a deeper technical read on one common issue, see Nextech’s guide to commercial refrigeration head pressure troubleshooting.

Not sure if we cover it? (What to check before you call)

Coverage varies by brand/model, so the fastest way to confirm is to share the unit’s key identifiers:

  • Equipment type: e.g., fryer, convection oven, walk-in freezer, reach-in cooler.
  • Fuel or refrigerant: gas vs. electric for hotside; refrigerant type (if known) for refrigeration.
  • Model/serial information: a photo of the nameplate is ideal.
