Hoshizaki Freezer Repair in Houses, Apartments and Rentals
We have no affiliation with Hoshizaki and are not one of its service centers. A freezer still covered by the Hoshizaki warranty belongs with Hoshizaki first. Once it's out of coverage, give us the model number and the symptom when you book so we can look into parts ahead of time.

The part goes in, the appliance runs a cycle, and you see that it works before we leave.
How Hoshizaki builds its freezers
A Hoshizaki freezer handles frost the way most commercial freezers do. Electric heaters defrost the evaporator on a schedule set by the controller, a sensor ends defrost once the coil is clear, and the drain line has its own heater to keep meltwater moving. The door frame is heated too, so the gasket can't freeze to the cabinet. When any of those heaters fails, the result is predictable: an iced coil and a warming cabinet, a frozen drain with water on the floor, or a door that sticks and tears its gasket. Frequent door openings during service load the coil with frost, so a freezer beside the line works harder than one tucked in a storeroom.

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. Water under a freezer usually means the drain line froze after its heater failed; ice backs up and meltwater overflows. We test the heater and clear the drain.
Frequent door openings, a torn gasket or a defrost fault. Warm, humid air carries moisture that freezes on the coil. We check the gasket, the defrost heater and sensor, and the controller settings.
