Some of the brands we repair
Turbo Air Repair in Houses, Apartments and Rentals
Turbo Air equipment is common in kitchens that need a lot of cold storage at a reasonable cost. We repair it independently, without a factory service agreement, so a unit still covered by Turbo Air's warranty should be taken up with Turbo Air or the dealer first. Once it's out of coverage, we diagnose on site, explain what failed and quote the repair before starting.
How a Repair Visit Works
Describe the Problem
The brand, the model number if it's handy, and what the appliance is doing. A photo of the rating label is a bonus.
Diagnosis On Site
The technician tests the appliance and its power, water, drain, gas or vent until the failed part is found.
Explanation and Quote
You hear what failed and what the repair costs, then decide. Nothing starts without your OK.
Repair and Test
The part goes in, the appliance runs a cycle, and you see that it works before we leave.

Turbo Air Products We Service
Where Turbo Air comes from
Turbo Air started in 1997 and runs its world headquarters out of Long Beach, California, with factories in several countries, including South Korea. The product range is wide: solid- and glass-door reach-ins, undercounter and worktop units, sandwich, salad and pizza prep tables, chef bases, bar equipment and display merchandisers.
In Pittsburgh these units show up wherever food is prepped and kept cold on a budget: pizzerias, delis, sandwich counters, coffee shops, small restaurant kitchens and convenience stores.
The self-cleaning condenser and its limits
Many Turbo Air models use a self-cleaning condenser, a brush that sweeps dust off a filter in front of the coil on a schedule. It helps, but in a kitchen with a fryer or a pizza oven, grease sticks where dust would slide off, and the brush can't keep up. When a Turbo Air runs warm, the condenser and its filter are still the first thing we check.
Beyond that, the usual suspects are evaporator fans, digital controls and temperature probes, door gaskets and hinges, and on prep tables the pan rail airflow.
Keeping the kitchen running
When a reach-in goes down, product needs somewhere to go. We tell you right away whether the repair needs the box emptied and how long the part is likely to take. Units wedged into tight line kitchens or basement prep rooms in older buildings are common here, and we plan access around that before starting.
Turbo Air, product by product
- Refrigerators: Reach-ins, undercounters, worktops, prep tables and merchandisers. Frequent calls: warm cabinet from condenser buildup, failed evaporator fan, controller or probe faults, torn gaskets and prep rails that won't hold temperature.
- Freezers: Reach-in, undercounter and chest-style freezers. Calls typically involve iced-over evaporators, defrost heater or sensor failures, fan motors and door gaskets that no longer seal.
Getting Turbo Air parts
Turbo Air parts are sold through commercial parts distributors and the company's own parts channel. Gaskets, fans, probes and controllers are usually available by model number, though some items take a few days to arrive. Serial numbers help because designs change between production runs. We confirm the correct part and say how long the part should take before you say yes.

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.
The brush clears dry dust well but can struggle with grease. The filter and coil may still need cleaning by hand, and fans or controls can fail independently. We check both.
Yes. Warm pans usually trace to blocked airflow through the rail, a lid left open, an overfilled rail or a fan problem. We check the airflow path and fans first.
Yes, that's where most of them are. We repair reach-ins, undercounters, prep tables and freezers in restaurants, cafés, delis and similar businesses.
