Food Warmer & Holding Cabinet repair for University City businesses
University City's restaurants, hotels, campus dining and hospital kitchens serve tens of thousands of students and workers every day. We serve businesses near UNC Charlotte, J.W. Clay Boulevard and the Atrium Health University City campus, including ZIP codes 28262, 28213 in Mecklenburg County, NC.
Because we also work in NoDa and Charlotte, a technician is often already nearby when a University City business calls. Businesses in ZIP 28262 and 28213 can book online in 30 seconds, and the first available operator calls back during business hours. Summer heat in the Charlotte region pushes condensers and compressors to their limit; for University City kitchens we check airflow, coil condition and electrical parts on every visit. Mecklenburg County health inspectors check cold-holding at 41°F or below and hot-holding at 135°F or above — we repair your food warmer and holding cabinet to hold those numbers.
