West of the Parkway's busy shopping strip, the country opens up quickly. Oakdale and McDonald are railroad-era boroughs strung along Robinson Run and the old Panhandle line, Imperial grew up around a coal company near what is now the airport, and between them North Fayette and Findlay mix fresh subdivisions with farmland and woods.
Two things worth knowing about Hoshizaki before we arrive: bar and restaurant ice machines seldom get a rest, so sticking to Hoshizaki's cleaning schedule matters a great deal; and when a Hoshizaki makes less ice, thinner cubes or cloudy ice, it's usually overdue for descaling and sanitizing.
Call or book online and we'll set up a time that works for you.
Hoshizaki: platform and parts
Hoshizaki belongs to the Commercial family of brands, which share engineering and a lot of components. That helps on jobs around Oakdale, Imperial & McDonald: parts are easier to track down, and the ways these machines tend to fail are well understood.
Send us the model number with your booking. Look for a sticker inside the door or lid, along the frame, behind the bottom kick plate or on the rear panel; with it we can look up that platform's known weak points and carry those parts instead of ordering after the first visit.
Hoshizaki equipment in Oakdale, Imperial & McDonald kitchens and bars
A Hoshizaki unit that's down is costing you money by the hour. We try to reach commercial calls around Oakdale, Imperial & McDonald outside the busy part of the day, and we ask for the model and serial number over the phone so the likeliest parts are already with us.
Refrigeration and ice come with food-safety obligations, so you get a note of what we found and what we changed. If the failure traces back to maintenance, such as a grease-coated condenser, a torn gasket or an ice machine that needs descaling, we'll tell you, since that's what brings on the next breakdown.
Where Hoshizaki appliances sit in Oakdale, Imperial & McDonald
Basement washers and dryers in the older borough houses, garage refrigerators and chest freezers on the bigger township lots, and gas or electric ranges in kitchens ranging from century-old to brand new.
No matter the brand, a Hoshizaki appliance in Oakdale, Imperial & McDonald is only as good as the drain, circuit, vent and water line it's hooked to, and here the washer and dryer are usually in the basement in the older Oakdale, Imperial and McDonald houses, and a basement or first-floor laundry room off the garage in the township subdivisions.
Cold garages and winter refrigerators
Every winter in Oakdale, Imperial & McDonald brings calls about garage refrigerators whose freezers have gone soft while the garage itself is near freezing. It seems backwards, but in many models a single thermostat in the fresh-food section decides when the compressor runs, and in a cold room it rarely asks.
The owner's manual gives the room-temperature range the refrigerator was designed for. If your garage falls outside it, the fix may be a garage-rated model or a warmer spot rather than a part.
What happens on the visit
The sequence doesn't change: find the fault, show it to you, price the repair. Nothing gets replaced until you've agreed to the number.
You also get the reasoning in plain language: which part failed, the likely reason, and what the repair involves. That way the decision is yours, with everything in front of you.

Hoshizaki in Oakdale, Imperial & McDonald: Questions We Hear
Quick answers to what people ask most. If yours isn't here, bring it up on the phone or type it into the notes box when you book.
Something else on your mind?
Reach out with the brand, the symptom and a model number if you have one. Some questions we can answer on the spot; the rest a technician can check in person.
No. Oakdale is a small borough surrounded by North Fayette Township, Imperial is an unincorporated community split between Findlay and North Fayette, and McDonald is a borough that sits on the Allegheny-Washington county line. Either way, all 3 ZIP codes here are on our service map.
Yes, while it's under the manufacturer's warranty. Warranty repairs are normally handled by the maker's own service network, and we're an independent company, not an authorized service center. Once the warranty has run out, or the problem isn't covered, we're glad to take the job in Oakdale, Imperial & McDonald.
Usually. When you book a Oakdale, Imperial & McDonald visit, list every appliance that's giving trouble, with model numbers if you have them, so we set aside enough time and bring the likely parts.
Our first choice is the Hoshizaki part that matches your model number. If that part has been discontinued, an equivalent may exist, and we'll tell you it's an equivalent before it goes in. Hoshizaki shares a parts bin with the other Commercial brands, so compatible parts are usually easy to get, even for older units.
That comes down to the part and the age. Pumps, valves, switches, elements, belts and fan motors are nearly always worth replacing. A dead control board or a sealed-system failure on an older machine is a harder call, and if a new one makes more sense we'll say so plainly.
